EXCLUSIVE: Leicester plot raid for Man United winger

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson wants to sign Manchester United winger Robbie Brady – which will upset his old club Hull City.

Pearson took Brady, 19, to Hull on loan but now hopes to buy him and has the go-ahead from Leicester’s owners.

Been in the reserves recently hasn't he? Don't know if it's 'cause of injury or something.

Looked decent in parts anyway. Would prefer Stewart though.

Good article from Man U site about Brady

http://www.unitedrant.co.uk/opinion/robbie-brady-the-great-irish-hope/

But now there’s a player tipped for huge things at Old Trafford – a new Irish hope – 19-year-old Dubliner Robbie Brady. Described by Kevin Keegan as a player who “has everything,” and currently turning heads on loan at Hull City in the Championship, Brady joined the United Academy in 2008, having already representing Ireland at U-17 level. Up to 15 Premier League clubs were after the 16-year-old Brady at the time.

Brady, a left sided midfielder, was inevitably hailed as the “new Ryan Giggs” when United signed him. At this club, there is no higher praise for a young player. And it didn’t take long for the youngster to make a mark in the youth set-up, impressing in the 2009 Milk Cup in Northern Ireland as United won the Premier section. Brady has also shone for United’s academy side with bursting runs down the flank, high quality crossing, and a deft finish or two, which even earned the player a stint as Academy captain.

Like many younger players learning their trade at Old Trafford, Brady was sent out on loan for seasoning. In the Championship, Brady has been seen by a wider audience, and has stepped his game up accordingly, impressing many. ESPN’s Keegan and Robbie Savage are two pundits who have been lauding the young Irishman’s efforts, tipping him as one of the brightest stars at Championship level.

Brady made a bright start to his Hull career, scoring a fine goal against Liverpool in the Tigers’ 3-0 win in a pre-season friendly. The Dubliner has continued to impress in his early Championship games for Hull, even netting a winning goal against Reading in his fifth competitve game. Making 16 appearances to date, starting 15 of them, Brady has featured in all of Hull’s games so far this season. He has also registered a staggering 34 shots so far, although just the one has beat the ‘keeper to date.

However, Brady has suffered a slight dip in form recently, with then manager Nigel Pearson citing fatigue as the reason, reminding us that Brady is still only 19, and this is his first full season of football. Brady’s stamina and fitness will need to improve, and have been a slight concern going back to the reserves under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who said “we’ve just got to work on his fitness and, if we can get him super fit, then he’ll be a very, very good player.” Encouraging words, and at a club such as United, there are the facilities to fix the problem.

The rigors of top flight football are much more demanding than the reserves of course, but these are standard growing pains for a young ‘up-and-comer’. Fitness is unlikely to hamstring Brady less as he acclimates to the Championship. Indeed, after a short rest the player’s performance for the Irish under-21s recently showed that he’s still just as talented as hoped.

Should Brady continue his rapid progress there is no limit to where the youngster could go – a place in Sir Alex Ferguson’s first team squad is not out of the question next season. If not, a loan to a Premier League club is inevitable as the player looks to step up a level.

Brady has also risen through the Irish youth ranks, scoring plenty of goals along the way. Now at under-21 level, Brady has scored five goals in as many games, two of which came in the recent 2-1 friendly win over Lichtenstein. As a stand-out player at age-group level, Brady is being widely tipped to become one of the finest Irish players of his generation. He’ll soon get a chance to shine with the full national side too.

Moreover, Brady has the raw talent to make it as a United player: a swift, attack-minded, confident, skilful winger, with clever feet and a footballing brain fits into the United mould.

From a hull point of view I can definitely see this happening. Brady was outstanding in pre-season and the first month or two of the season but has been pretty turgid more recently. He lost his place towards the end of the Pearson reign I think and hasn't gained it back since. He's a bit of a nutter and was sent off for the reserves for lashing out a couple of weeks ago which it seems has made barmbys mind up about keeping him.

With the ball at his feet he is obviously a massive threat and can skin his full back all day long but he tends to go missing at times and completely shelves any defending responsibility which ultimately cost us on boxing day against boro when he just let Barry Robson glide past him with ease.

To us it's a bit of an odd one why united were happy to let Stewart go permanently but keep Brady because of the two id take Stewart every day of the week. Clearly brady has an abundance of ability but there's far too many negatives at this stage of his career. Of course having said that, Nigel got more out of him than barmby has so I guess time will tell

Would absolutely love him here. He's fearless and the crowd would love him, it might be the lift we need. He's still very raw and incosistent, but then so are our established players. Stewart will cost us massive dough and although I rate him and he ripped us apart at times last month, i'd rather have Brady who'll be cheaper.

Firstly why would we want a 31 year old like Koren? Lets get someone younger on an upward curve. Similar with Kebe really.

Stewart and Brady could be decent signings.

He caught my eye against Blackpool on the first day.

Clearly some flaws but I'm happy with a winger with FLAIR, we need it.

Nick Barmby has just agreed a deal with United to extend Robbie Brady's loan to the end of the season.

He has also been boosted by Assem Allam assuring him that none of our star youngsters will be sold this window.

Sorry, looks like you'll have to flash your wad somewhere else.

Depend's if all this twiitering stuff is legitimate, buying trumps loan spell's.

Can't remember who it was but we took a player on loan once and he only lasted a game or two before a team brought him from the club he was contracted too, so he was off sharpish.

Do not know if that is allowed these day's ?
