Prem eyes on Foxes starlet

[theessexfox]

He hasn't 'earnt a place in the first X1', there are no other fit centre-backs!?

And Moore, when I've seen him, looks solid but not spectacular. Certainly not enough, in my opinion, to attract the likes of Spurs and Newcastle.

ok There was a mild possibility the likes of WBA might of been intrested but all credability has now evaporated from this story after the mirror article.

[stevelcfc]

This, the kid has potential but I doubt he's gonna be champions league quality.

[Guest nathan.]

Barca next time then

Do tend to agree, but the Mirror's credibility isn't too bad normally.

Increadible

Doubt he would leave with so little real game time at this level, watch him throughout the season to really see what level he could be at instead of going straight in surely

Main Picture is Moore in todays gossip column too !

I genuinely cannot believe this!

1) He's not guaranteed a starting place, we just have a lot of injuries.

2) He's a right back!

Must admit he impressed me yesterday. Only seen him at Torquay otherwise where he was solid. Occasionally drawn out of position but that was about it. Hope he signs a new deal and reaches his potential here. Hopefully this does wonders for his confidence and he keeps his feet on the ground!

[Jaspa]

Certainly replaced Peltier well enough

[thewarmanator]

Manchester United and Everton are both interested in signing Leicester's 19-year-old defender Liam Moore, who has made just five appearances for the club.

From BBC gossip column, made me laugh but the journist at the mirror is normally on the ball so wouldn't suprize me if there is a bit of truth in this

[Babylon]

He's either got a great agent, or we're in for a few quid here.

[Callabinho]

I'd rather he replace de leat once the ledge or Zak are back on place!

[paddy Agyemang]

In his last year of contract so they won't pay much for him, nige tie him up a new contract asap

[Happy Fox]

Man U want him bloody hell, £3m I would take personally with a sell on clause.

This! I'm happy either way to be honest but if we do sell we've gotta throw in a sell on clause

Desperate Fergie targets Ferdinand replacement

Everton are also eyeing the England youth international

Liam Moore of Leicester City is one of the hottest young England prospects. (GETTY)

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is lining up a shock raid for Leicester City’s young centre-half Liam Moore, according to The Mirror.

The injury (and Twitter-prone) Rio Ferdinand has once again scuppered any hope of a strong start to the season for United.

In fact, Fergie seems ready to wipe out all the back four stalwarts - bringing in Alex Buttner for Patrice Evra.

With Nemanja Vidic back, Moore can only be the back-up plan for Rio Ferdinand.

Fergie sent his chief scout Jim Lawlor to watch the 19-year-old England youth cap in action at the weekend.

Moore has only played a handful of games for the Foxes but is already attracting huge interest.

Everton spy Alan Stubbs was also watching, along with the chief scouts of Sunderland and Tottenham.

With United short of centre-backs, Ferguson could make a move before the transfer window shuts on Friday.

Ferguson was left fuming after Everton's Maroune Fellaini exposed their defensive frailties with a bullet header which condemned United to their first opening day defeat in eight years.

Moore came through the ranks at Leicester, with a brief spell on loan at Bradford.

[davieG]

I don't get this, has he even looked that "special", decent maybe? Is he even a CB by choice?

It's difficult to just dismiss it as bullshit when there are so many reports, the ManU one with Fergie being desperate and looking for someone that could have prevented Fellaini's header, ha! He may have some potential but ready to slip straight into a desperate PL team I think not.
