Thracian Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 As I see it there are two scenarios. Either Kelly believes Kisnorbo's departure is inevitable and sees McAuley as a big, strong goalscoring replacement. In which case we'll benefit from the goals contribution and will have to hope we don't suffer defensively (which is possible because Kisnorbo has proved himself an excellent defender). But if Kisnorbo stays and Gerrbrand goes I see the side as being categoriocally strengthened and Kelly suddenly having five more goals a season in his squad, greater all-round defensive strength and the option of playing wing backs. So while I hope Gerrbrand is the one to leave, sadly I believe Kisnorbo will be the fund-raiser for the new season and will go, probably to Everton.

spirefox Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 I hope I'm wrong but watching him in the Div 2 Play off semis left me totally unimpressed.I did not see the dominating powerful header we are looking for,in fact McCombe, who has just gone to Bristol City,looked more the part.A free transfer signing from Lincoln is unlikely to be the next Walshie is it?

It's all a lottery, we've had ex-premier players on £20+k/week who turned out crap, I believe he only scored six goals, but hey hope springs eternal.

ThurmastonFox Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 Well, its nice to hear that we are being active in the market for a change. I say if its finalised, give the lad a chance and see how he does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirefox Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 I know we have got to back RK's judgement and I hope McAuley can strengthen the squad.But he is simply not good enough to be our first choice centre half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phube Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 Hope it's true, from what I've heard he sounds decent enough. If it is the case can we go 3-5-2, pleeeeease!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got you saying he's shit and Lincoln Trust people reckoning he's good - I just hope we've got a manager who can tell a good player from a bad one - it's a pretty basic requirement I'd say.

Louise Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 Who's out is the interesting question? Yes, it is. Especially seeing as the deal must already be tied up. To be honest it could be any one of Gerrbrand (not played enough, possibly unsettled), Kisnorbo (linked with other teams) or Johansson (played out of position, possibly unsettled)...if one of them isn't on their way out, I cannot see the merit in bringing in McAuley when more desperate positions would be central midfield, left wing, right wing, left back, striker and goalkeeper and we have limited funds to spend on wages... Personally I'd be happy with the CB pairing of McCarthy and Kisnorbo continuing next season anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phube Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 Logan McCarthy Gerrbrand Kisnorbo Stearman Sheehan Wesolowski Williams Hughes Hume Fryatt Contenders. Good, but the point being we have McAuley therefore we won't need Gerrbrand in there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThurmastonFox Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 I kinda see Mcauley as a probable replacement, so I think Phubes point kinda stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitesh Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 I will beleive it when i see it but if it is a done deal its good that we get a player for free. He must be good in Kelly's eyes for him to have signed him so i guess we will have to wait and see. Any player can be good or poor before they come to the club but its how they perform at Leicester which matters they most! From what i have read and heard, he would be a decent signing!

Ultra Posted 29 May 2006 Share Posted 29 May 2006 Personally I'd be happy with the CB pairing of McCarthy and Kisnorbo continuing next season anyway... The probablem is that when either of them are out (due to injury, suspension or whatever) we have looked very short of cover. I wouldn't be surprised if Gerrbrand or Nissa move on.
