AKCJ Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 Play Futaks and Blyth upfront (both 6' 5") and just play long ball all season. And resign Matt Mills to play the long balls Easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 Looked a menace every time I saw him last season but a raw talent, who will need work to turn in to an established player. Fantastic in the air and at holding it up, that's exactly the option we need in certain games. Vardy, Nugent, Beckford and Waghorn are there to score the goals. Reminds me very much of Velios at Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Fox Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 I cannot see any problems signing this lad he is mobile likely to win a ball in the air, okay his goal return of 5 last season is pretty piss poor but it is certainly more than Steeve Howard the Legend has been able to muster in the last two seasons, if he can win the ball for the other strikers to latch on to i.e Beckford and Nugent than we are on to a winner.

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 Yep really excited about this.. I think he offers something completely different !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicfox Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 If anybody remembers his goal by Pompey vs us last season, he can't half hit the ball hard. Really pleased we're getting him. Now looking forward to going on Pompey fans forums seeing them moaning about losing him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deucalion Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 The trouble with tall players is they look menacing when playing against Leicester but like Ormondroyd once they've signed for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coatsworthstache Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 Paves the way for at least one of the current strikers to leave on loan/permanently. I would think that Schlupp will be loaned out now. Possibly Waghorn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/12691/7891942/Leicester-line-up-Futacs-move Sky Sports understands Leicester City are in talks to sign former Portsmouth striker Marko Futacs. Futacs is available on a free transfer after seeing out his contract atFratton Park. The 22-year-old, who joined Portsmouth from Werder Bremen in August 2011, signed a one-year deal although he was mainly used as a substitute during his time on theSouth Coast. The giant forward netted five goals for struggling Pompey last season and his performances have attracted interest from a number of clubs. Leicester have expressed an interest in the Hungary Under 21 international as they look to bolster their attacking options. However, they could face competition for his signature with Championship rivals Watford and Barnsley also tracking Futacs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGLCFC Posted 12 July 2012 Share Posted 12 July 2012 I'm not sure a target man has to be prolific as long as he can hold the ball up, bring others into play, help out defensively from set plays and chip in with 10 goals - Did Howard score last year? Yet everyone chanted Super Super Stevie Howard every time he came on. He did a job, was hardly mobile and was never prolific, but he almost had cult status because of one goal he scored against Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
