Eriksson handed £10m to land Hesky and Given

Recommended Posts

The £10m+ to spend will be added to by the income from the sale of players, I am guessing.

I think Waggy, Steve Howard and a number of squad players will be sold, as well as hopefully Wellens. We will not get promoted if he is still a first choice midfield player for us next season.

Now he is getting older, and if he slows down any more he'll be walking pace. He is overrated and MUST go. I really hope Sven isn't just picking him 'cos he seems to be the 'darling' of so many fans

They will tell you 'when Wellens plays well, Leicester play well' - the truth is this - 'when Leicester play well, Wellens plays well'. The difference is huge, and vital. For the first time this season we saw what can be done without him ( 2nd half against Watford ) - this was undeniably our best 'fightback' of the season, and could not have been done with Wellens in the side. PLEEAASE Sven get shot of him!

Not even good enough to be in a 25 man squad?

From how I read it, it isn't saying that those two players will cost £10million together.. it's just saying he will have that amount to spend and those two are targets.

that's how I read it too

But £10m doesn't go far when you take into account transfer fees, signing fees, admin & agents fees and of course the biggie (especially if we're asking players to step down a level) players wages

A slightly more pessimistic way of looking at it would be... We lose money in this division anyway, with Manderic covering £12m & £7m+ of losses in two of his 3 seasons, the £10m cash injection (if there is one) will do nothing more than cover our losses & running costs for another year, much like the Thai's last £10m to spend on players did, which went on massively increased wages, loan fees & of course normal running costs

Hobbs is lacking pace but defends the high ball and presses the oncoming players better. His distribution is never going to be great. Mee does read the game well and can play the left side role. He can be panicked and when he is the player the ball is thrown to his distribution and time on the ball makes him a liability. He is not as tall as you would like. Vitor IMO has limited pace but is a good defender and can come out and block well. If we had gone with this partnership for the last few games it would have been interesting. For some reason it seems that Vitor will return to Bnefica.

it has been mentioned before that vitor is rated at about 15mil by benfica and is touted to become the next portuguese CB. so i dont think we can afford him/persuade him to move to the championship. having said this, sven mentioned yesterday post match that they are following up their interest in getting him next season. he will be giving rui costa a bell.

no.

4-2-3-1

GK Fraser Forster

RB Michel Morganella

CB Michele Camporese

CB Angelo Ogbonna

LB Lavyn Kurzawa

CM Michael Bradley

CM Fabian Lustenberger

RAM Cristian Tello

CAM Freddy Adu

LAM Andrew Driver

ST Nils Petersen

Now you can check but I'm pretty sure none of them are 16.

and of those none will come who are good enough to play for us.

If you honestly believe that we have a chance of signing bradley and that adu is good enough then i suggest you get yourself committed.

Yea they would we can offer them more or better than where they are at the moment, well Bradley can't get in a Villa team that isn't exactly flying high in the Premier League so I can't see how the hell that can be seen as an unrealistic proposition, Adu's been unlucky, he was doing well at Benfica until they changed the coach, I think we'd be the right club for him to resurrect his career, he is a quality player.

1. Maybe there's a reason for this...

2. So moving clubs won't mean a change in coach?

The coach has a personal vendetta against him, thats why he's been moved around a lot, he sends him far away, then calls him back claiming he's needed at Benfica, then sends him away again, he's ****ing his head up.

Maybe that's what he tells you...if his career has stuttered the way it has it's probably because he's got an attitude problem.

My coach has a personal vandetta with me, I just do what I'm told, it's called being mature and not throwing toys out of the pram

Nah i've heard the coach is a racist, and I've also heard the benfica fans don't like him cos of his colour either.

Just because you don't agree with me, doesn't mean I'm wrong. In fact you have given me greater confidence that I am right.

My two main priorities are ( in no particular order ), we need a new quality goalkeeper and we need to get rid of Wellens. The rest will look after itself.

Freddy Adu you can piss off with that stupid rumour, rather have Josh Low back overrated kid who never made it to the top.

I would love it if Given came, Heskey and Yak in attack the thought of that makes me cringe in all fairness.

The team is going to change a awful lot next season, maybe the midfield will stay the same with King, Wellens, Abe and Oakley all capable of playing central, but new goalie, defenders, maybe a winger and strikers will definitely be on the radar.

Given or Sorensen, Naughton or Cunningham permanent, very good central defenders, winger with pace as I think Dyer will get pushed out sadly enough and strikers King No, Yakubu Erm No, but someone like Graham would be fantastic.

Yes artur 100% right, get Fraser Forster in and replace Wellens with Swiss Under 21 International Fabian Lustenberger, then everyones happy :D

I think you're a wum :thumbup:

We've got a defence that leaks like a sieve and we've not had a consistant goalscorer all season. But your main priority alongside getting a new keeper is getting rid of Wellens?

Seriously, did he shag your wife?

Wellens isnt going anywhere anytime soon. Seems the instant he gets substituted and we do well off the back of it certain people forget how many goals he's created this season.

Not as many as Lustenberger :D

Wellens best performances have all been after we were winning, and he has been given space by teams who had lost their will to compete.

Burnley, second half after Kamara had almost single handedly given us a two nil lead. Wellens was the best player on the pitch - likewise any game where we hammered the opposition, but only when we were already on top. Wellens hit the bar in the second half against Burnley, scored the fourth or fifth goal against somebody - always the same - excellent when the rest of the team are playing well and we are winning, but crap against hard working teams who give us no space, tackle hard and close us down!

He is a 'fairweather' player who looks good when the rest of the team play well, but who doesn't want to know when the going gets tough. Overrated girly with no backbone who likes to blame everyone else for his own inadequacies.

So you'd rather just ship him out than let him stick around and see if one of the most experienced coaches in the world can address the issue? Clearly he has the ability, you've just admitted that yourself. It does sound like you have a chip on your shoulder and 'playing well when leicester are playing well' is generalising. There are plenty of occasions where he's provided important passes. I'm not going all out to say that he should be integral to us next season but to say you want rid of one of our better players this season seems stupid imo.

Are you his ex or something? lol

How many of our other players have been named championship player of the month this season? At least he hasn’t completely dropped off the radar like Andy King has in recent months, and nobody’s talking about ousting the invisible man from the squad.

What about Doncaster then? We were playing shit for the whole of the first half. The only player who even looked like he was trying to make things happen was Wellens. In the second half he took the game by the scruff of the neck, scored the goal to get us in front and we won 5-1.

That's just one example. I could spend time thinking of more but I'd rather just save time and say you don't know what you're talking about.

FGS, you say 'our first priority is to get rid of him' as if he's put some sort of voodoo curse on our Club.
