£10m+ Transfer Fund?

Recommended Posts

Forget the doom and gloom boo boys! and forget Peter "nobhead lets get rid of Collymore and keep cross eyed Benjamin" Taylor! This is great news, if you could land Heskey so be it, Fryatt and Campbell are both capable of 20 plus with the service Heskey could deliver. What chances has Owen got now and as I believe he is on a performance related pay deal at Man U. May not be out of our range? Sorry just talking about strikers, but i think that is all we are lacking, Moreno looks good and the team seem to be gelling nicely to Sousas footballing style.

The Bangkok Times or whatever it is, isn't widely distributed in the UK. Maybe that is why you haven't heard of it - but then the New York Times has similar distribution here - it doesn't mean to say they are less reliable than the Sun, N.O.W, The People, Mirror or Star - in fact that would probably be beyond belief!

I like the news, and guardedly I have no doubt our new owners did actually say what has been quoted.

All I'm saying is that because we haven't heard of it, we have no idea how reliable it is, yet there are a lot of people getting excited beyond belief about a figure which is put out as a possibility in a quote that hasn't been reported over here at all.

Is it only negative comments on this site ,why can't people be a little more upbeat ,something positive is happening at the club and let's try and be a little more optimistic instead of trying to run things down all the time

Comparing Bellamy to Heskey...............so Cardiff are doing their shopping at Harrod's and we're stuck with the bargain buckets in Lidl.

Oi, I'd much rather have Heskey at the club than Bellamy, for many reasons

Get as excited as you like about the proclaimed team-building pot but money doesn't guarantee anything.

Any club that could have wasted £5m plus on Ade Akinbiyi can just as easily waste £10m.

And by the time any new players are purchased and integrated, assuming they don't get injured, the potential to finish in the top two might already have receded dramatically.

This is not pessimism but realism. Sousa will clearly need at least 2-3 months to put the basis of his team together and with us already being five points off the pace, finishing first or second is already looking more difficult than it was even a fornight ago.

Furthermore the weight of being a moneybags club can hinder because others raise their game to beat you and opposition players can taunt you about expectations so even the psychology works against us.

It helps to get points quickly if you want to win titles and we have never looked like doing that because we weren't ready. But the football is encouraging and we need to work on our methods, improve our goals ratio from dead ball situations, get more players in the team who can score, rid the team of blatant weaknesses and be properly ready next season.

That will also give us time to evaluate our most important needs, research players properly and sign only people who will improve our side.

and what are these blatant weaknesses?

I think we've totally missed the boat this season with any hope of making any decent signings. Most the players who we thought could have added some quality to our squad have gone to other clubs.

I don't think the squad is strong enough for a top 6 finish this season. I have very little faith in Paulo's capability to play the transfer market. We're still carrying quite a load of old baggage in poor overrated players like Fryatt.

We could spend 10 million now but be assured not one of those players will be any good.

We're going backwards.

Sousa took 6 games or something to win with swansea, but still got close to a playoff place, so i think it's a bit early to suggest it's all over

I don't have any figures to hand but even if we spend 10M, i bet there's at least 6-10 clubs in the NPC that have spent more than that

Leicester City assistant coach Bruno Oliveira says the club will not make wholesale changes to the squad even if the new owners make funds available.

Paulo Sousa's side have reportedly been handed a £10m transfer kitty by the new Thai owners, The King Power Group.

"We are excited of course but we don't want to make it a huge thing," Oliveria told BBC Radio Leicester. "We want to keep our stability in the squad.

"The team know each other and we want to keep that harmony."

Last week the Asian Football Investments Consortium took control of the club from Milan Mandaric.

And the new owners have already been promising to invest heavily in the team to help achieve their goal of playing Premier League football within two years.

Oliveria added: "Maybe we can bring one or two signings that can add some extra quality to the squad we have but we don't want to make major changes."

Harsh but fair: +1

i bet heskey would cost 2 million

he would still be good at championship level, like a better version of steve howard

And then some........

He could hold up the ball and do all that but he's not in the Sousa mould.........

Also it would be the beginning of the end for Emile career- wise.

Lastly this won't happen.

So let's stop talking about it immediately.

Martin O'Neil, however will be returning to the football club next week.

King Power are spending 5 million over a two season contract.

Sousa is to be executed at half time by Alan Birchnall, live on Sky TV during the Reading match - This has been full sanctioned by the Thai Government.

Memorabilia will be available at Duty Free prices.
