Bettsj2 Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 6ft 1inc, physical and tough player. This is the sort of player that NP will be bringing in all over the field. For too long we've been a soft touch and need this sort of player to give us a physical edge. Berner Brown Hobbs Morrisson Completely untalented as footballers but big, strong and as a unit, the best back 4 we've had for years. One of the things that needs to change is the attitude towards signings. Forget big money and big reputations. Let NP, Walsh and Shakey do their thing.

Jimmy Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 Right back? Not so sure he is. According to the utd site he is a centre back who can play left back. Centre Back that can cover both full back positions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2607 Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 He will be a fantastic signing for us, our fans are never happy, he's been on loan to Norwich this season, likes of Villa saying they want him just last month, so he's not good enough for us? Please dont forget that alot of our fans also claimed that Yakubu and Jelavic weren't good enough to operate at our club and that we could do "much better". I think i'll trust in the judgement of the current management team down at the club. Fair enough they cant get EVERY signing right, but i'd say pearson has been relatively astute in the players he has signed since he has been here.

Heskey2011 Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 Schmeichel De Laet Morgan Konchesky Just Central Defender,Left Midfielder and a strikerpartner for Nugent,although i'd love to see diame and Heskey arrive to add the physical edge Nigel was on about. Marshall Danns Drinkwater Nugent Diame and Heskey, would love that to happen in the summer, strengh goes along way in the champ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterborofox Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 Think he did well at Noriwch and have heard he is promising, good if he is a RB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simo86 Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 Think injury cut his loan short at Norwich. Who are in the premiership btw. I would be happy with this signing and I think it's just the sort of player we need. Versatile, young something to prove etc isn't this what we all wanted!? I thought I read somewhere that Norwich cut short his loan so that they could bring in someone else on loan as they'd reached their loan limit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 Wonder if we'll have a laet surge for the play-offs if we bottle it next year. Sorry. 1/10 at best. Fvcking appalling. But I'm saying it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raw Dykes Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 http://www.dailymail...l#ixzz1t2Lo1HKN There is one comment on that article... "Sportsmail Reporter" wrote it. Dont believe a word. So shamefully written and composed the mail are embarrassed to put a reporters name to it. Please copy and repost this comment so we can hopefully get "Sportsmail Reporter" to stop churning out such incredible tosh. - Joe, Derkaderkastan, 22/3/2012 11:36 So, if I had to hazard a guess as to which story had more truth in it out of that one, that says Villa are after him on a Bosman, or the other one that says we're looking to buy him for £1.2m, I'd have to go with the latter.

Phil Gee's Mullet Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2134825/Leicester-want-Manchester-Uniteds-Ritchie-De-Laet.html De Laet set for Old Trafford exit as Leicester launch bid for United defender Leicester hope to make Manchester United defender Ritchie De Laet their first summer signing. The Foxes, who failed to make the Championship play-offs despite being favourites for the title, will lodge a £1.2million bid for the Belgian international this week. De Laet will be allowed to leave Old Trafford having failed to make an impact since arriving in 2009. Heading out: Ritchie De Laet (left) is set to leave Manchester United Leicester boss Nigel Pearson, who replaced Sven Goran-Erikkson at the Walkers Stadium, knows he has a rebuilding job on his hands. He said: 'I’m very clear in my mind how we move forward and what’s needed, so it’s very much a case of seeing the season out - then the hard work really starts.' Work to be done: Leicester boss Nigel Pearson faces a summer of rebuilding De Laet joined United from Stoke and has had loan spells at Sheffield United, Preston, Portsmouth and Norwich since, while starting only three league games for the Old Trafford giants. Pearson has also made a £1m offer for striker Jamie Vardy of non-League Fleetwood, but faces competition from several clubs, including West Ham and Blackpool.

DanTheFox07 Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 can we actually buy him now outside the transfer window? or is it basically a case of agreeing a deal and then will go through when the window open`s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raw Dykes Posted 25 April 2012 Share Posted 25 April 2012 can we actually buy him now outside the transfer window? or is it basically a case of agreeing a deal and then will go through when the window open`s? I'm pretty sure clubs can buy players whenever they like, but if a deal is done outside of a transfer window, then it can't come into effect until the next window opens. Sort of like a signing for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
