Stevosevic Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I'm sure i will be slated for being negative but MA has bought in eleven players, by the law of averages at least one of them has to flop. Who do you think it will be? I think it could be Kaebi simply because of the reputation he seems to carry meaning he may not live up to the hype.
General Smuts Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Dunno about flop but im sure that Casino Jimmy is bound to flap
Asha Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Dunno why im just not exactly overjoyed with the signing of N'Gotty...i think this is the year he'll lose his legs.
Guest Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I'm sure i will be slated for being negative Too right! I would like to reserve any judgment until I've seen a ball kicked in anger (not yours, by the way).
Jay Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I love the way in true Leicester fans style we seem to have already formed our opinions and are writing off players before they have even kicked a ball in anger for the club!!
lookwhaticando Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I reckon it'll be Kaebi. Everyone's been stroking themselves something silly about him joining, he's bound to fail to meet expectations. Well done, chaps. Meanwhile, the likes of Cort, N'Gotty and Newton that lots of people complained about - for one reason or another - will have stunning seasons. I'd enjoy that massively.
Asha Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I dont think Newton can be a flop...the expectation is that he won't do a lot anyway.....
sdb Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 i fear Hellings and Hayes will be very average - not sure if that counts as flopping though! Cort perhaps as his inevitable injury could be long term anyways, FoxesTalk, we all need a big dose of PMA!!
Thracian Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I've not seen enough of him yet but Sappleton's a contender. Of the genuine front runners for a team place Neilsen didn't look at all convincing against Quorn.

It's pretty much impossible for eleven signings all to be a success.
Isopen Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Having this pole is just typical of too many City fans.. looking for the player who will become the next crowds whipping boy. Last season before it started it was stated on the Trust's website that Josh Low was a confidence player (quoting a Lincoln fan). What happens, he struggles to adapt to Championship level, do our fans encourage him, no - they slate him, cheer when he gets substituted etc. He didn't appear not to try, he just couldn't quite hack it, would he if fans game him encouragement? well he would have had more of a chance. So this season, can we all learn from it & back every single player? Because if you don't, all you are doing is wrecking all MA's & MM's hard work - think on !!
lildave3 Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I'm about scared of Kaebi, I don't think he will live up to the hype.

So this season, can we all learn from it & back every single player? Because if you don't, all you are doing is wrecking all MA's & MM's hard work - think on !! Josh Low got a perfectly good reception when he came on for his Championship debut - and was given lots of leeway with hardly a dissenting voice to be heard. But not a lot came back from the player himself. Apart from that first game I can barely remember him beating anyone or even taking them on with any intent. He hardly played a single incisive pass that might have led to a goal nor can I recall him ever being a threat with his shooting. Low was supposedly a right winger. Scoring goals and making goals is what they do. If he'd been a firework they'd have sent him back as a dud. And it wasn't the fans fault. Indeed Low got less hammer than some I could name who've been relatively successful when given the chance.
Blue Bob Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 My worry is Cort, I think a lot is resting on his shoulders. If he gets injured the fans might get on his back. I hope not, be nice to see him prove his critics wrong and bag 20 goals.

Blue Bob Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 What do you mean "if" he gets injured!. I try not to be too negative at the start of the season
majestic fox Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 neilson will be the first a few games into the season, hopefully im proved wrong though
Pete_foxes Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Hellings or Cort me thinks. Prove me wrong you two!
Rocky Dennis Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Hellings just looked very average against Oadby, i know its early days but i certainly didnt see any of the famous Ajax total football!! Although i admit the pitch was shite!!
Daggers Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 I'm sure i will be slated for being negative You reckon? I think it is a brilliant idea for a thread
Cheese Me Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 Ridiculous poll. Completely refus to vote. You shouldn't be assuming anyone will flop before the season has even started. Get behind the players, have a bit of positivity and hope and expect for the best from all of them.
Stevosevic Posted 15 July 2007 Author Posted 15 July 2007 Oh dear, it would seem people have confused this poll with not getting behind the team, people should read around a bit first before making these judgements. It seems to be okay to slag off players for most people when we first sign a player, but then to discuss the inevitable is not allowed.
Head Honcho Posted 15 July 2007 Posted 15 July 2007 At 22 he's got time on his side to improve but the majority of you lot think we've signed the new Pele(albeit in a different position) so for that reason I've gone for Kaebi. He may struggle to make the starting line up imo but that may not be a bad thing as I think he'll improve as the season goes on!
