Recommended Posts

Hes hadgames this season where he has been outstanding, NP had a spat with SSL and look how thats ended up, i think Mills still has a part to play in our future it wouldnt surprise me to hear our fans say "Morgans solid but slow" within the next few weeks

I agree. A lot of people are loving Morgan atm but it only takes one or two average games before half the forum get on his back and it will be like "OH WE NEED BAMBA OR MILLS BACK". Mills has had some really good games, just a bit fiesty at times

I'm not a Mills hater or Mills lover. The jury is still out for me. Rated him highly when I saw him a lot at Reading - obviously we overpaid but I thought he'd step up. There's definitely something good in there but something is missing.

The exact text I received said: "The gaffer doesn't rate Mills one bit. It's his contract which is the problem. And he's a big time charlie." It didn't come from a player or member of LCFC staff by the way. I'm not claiming to be "ever reliable" like the mighty Bert (no, I'm not taking the piss Bert) but I get one or two bang on nuggets of info here and there.

Wouldn't have said you were! I know you're a good source of information and people should take notice of your posts.

(P.S - I've never claimed I'm "ever reliable")

I think Bamba will start playing a Defensive midfielder/Midfielder type role to add bite to our sometimes fragile midfield. I know this because I play him as DMC in football manager. Only sensible option.

Pure speculation followed by more pure speculation.

Who was responsible for his contract which we all seem to know a lot about? I don't believe Sven sat down and discussed individual contracts with each player. Surely this is done by someone else in the club.

I really don't get this correlation between wages and ability/lack of desire etc etc. I bet Messi is on a fair whack and he doesn't look too shabby.

Fallen out with the manager? Possibly but this kind of thing happens all the time. Personally I'm prepared to wait and see how things pan out. If he goes to the manager and asks for a transfer and that request is accepted then I'll be prepared to agree with the speculation until then that is what it remains. After all he was dropped by Sven as well and I don't recall suggestions that because of that that Sven didn't rate him.

The main problem with him is that he simply isn't worth 5million though I wonder how much the likes of Wolves bid for him?

Players that we held talks with knew that we'd be offering silly money. Mills was Sven's number one target and wanted him at any cost.

Mills knew this and we then lost all power we had. It was either surrender to Mills' demands or not get him. Something which Sven convinced Andrew Neville couldn't happen.

We haven't paid £5 million for Mills. That sum includes add ons and one of them was bound to include promotion, which looks unlikely.

DEFENCE SHOULD BE

SSL(RB)

MORS

BAMBA

KONSK(LB)

MILLS IS SH1T AND SVEN WAS THE ONLY PERSON WHO THOUGHT HE WAS WORTH 5.5MILLION

HE CANT PASS

RES FOR MILLS

If Mills goes I will cry :cry:

Don't cry Beasty, Mills is just getting a kick up the arse he needs, he will get his chance again, he just has to realise he is not more important than the team, when he gets his chance again he will hopefully show us what he can do.

As has been said by others I was amazed that he looked so miserable after Leicester's second goal. I re-ran the replays a few times. Surely that shows there's something very odd about him?

Posted

I've seen it now. Yeh he doesn't react but he's only on screen for a couple of seconds. Maybe he was waiting to make sure he wasn't given offside :ph34r:

Posted

I can't see what people are referring to regarding the second goal. Where is he on the screen?

Me neither. Can't see him at all.

I've said from the start I wasn't convinced by him; from what I've seen, he's our fourth best centre back. The question for me is whether Morgan or St. Ledger should partner Bamba (although I'm disappointed it took him so long to get back from the African Nations).

I'm referring to the ITV Highlights on Saturday Night - anyway oldish news now - maybe Nigel was blocking his view of events!

Fair enough, I don't think he should be sold though. All of the defenders, except for Tunchev have a lot to offer the club IMO.
