foxpleasure Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Did anyone hear Alan Youngs comments about Kasper this morning on Radio Leicester? He said something about he was worried about someone coming in for him this week. The other players were all happy to be here but Kasper was a different story. Was it taken out of context and so sounded worse than he meant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxyPV Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 It's probably a storm in a tea cup. Realistically, who would he go to and be guaranteed to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indierich06 Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Alan Young hardly has his finger on the pulse. Every interview I've heard with Kasper he says how much he's enjoying his time at Leicester, even when he's not prompted. He has said he'd do anything to play for Manchester United in any capacity, but apart from that I think he's happy here for the time being. Ignore the RL shit stirrers, must be a slow news day.

Was it taken out of context and so sounded worse than he meant? I don't think he said Kasper wasn't happy to be here, just that he was more likely to go of all the players, I think mainly due to him saying in the past that his football home is Man U. If they came calling he would be off like a shot, but can you blame him for that. What he (AlanYoung) was more worried about was Pearson going if some one came calling, think he mentioned Villa and Newcastle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyFromLE Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Why would he go? He's no.1 here, fans love him, part of a team in form - if he does he's going to go to a lower Premiership team, like Villa, Wigan, Reading etc - where he'll be thrown in the deep end into a team with no morale, and potentially back where he is now when one of them gets relegated. You can tell by his interview that he isn't stupid - he won't go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 It will be interesting to see what happens regarding Kasper at the end of this season as he only has another year to run on his deal and it'll be a similar situation to when he was at Leeds, where he made no assurances he'd sign a new deal.

Babylon Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Considering how few shots we concede you could put me in goal and I'd keep some clean sheets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 He's missed about two games since he joined, and finally looks settled after moving about regularly in his career. I'm sure he's happy at Leicester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 He'll be happy until a better offer (club/money) turns up. i wouldn't expect anything less from any young ambitious professional, loyalty is no longer expected or rewarded or dare I say it admired these days by those running organisations..

Oxfordfox83 Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Considering how few shots we concede you could put me in goal and I'd keep some clean sheets. Agree Babs, although I think he has to get some credit for the way he manages the back four and his positioning. Some people on here (not you, or on this thread actually) underrate the impact of a good marshal at the back, which is one of the reasons we concede so few shots. Comfortably a Prem keeper, good and young and popular-let's hope he does stick around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tricky one-from our point of view, I love it when players show loyalty, but there is a point where you wonder what some players might have achieved had they taken a risk and moved on. If you're a mercurial folk hero type (Le Tissier springs to mind), it makes sense to stay (cf Berbatov, who never really made it at Man U, even the season he top scored). I do always wonder how much better a player Gerrard would have been if he'd taken Madrid up on their offer a few years back, and I suspect Rooney would be the same. As an England fan, I think our best players benefitted from time abroad... For Kasper's sake, I hope he stays with us long enough to establish himself, and if a genuinely bigger club comes in offering 1st team football you can't really blame the lad.

Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 I think he's happy here for now, at least I hope so If our owners really want to progress and they've stressed over and over that their aim is the Premier League, my guess is they'd offer Schmeichel whatever anyone else would unless someone comes in with absolute silly money... which is probably unlikely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grewks Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Rumors like this will happen simply because Kasper is totally different from the majority of other footballers. He simply sees football as a job, and doesn't partake in the stereotypical lifestyle. Instead of going out with other players, he prefers to go home and spend time with his family. Look at last week for instance when he was at old trafford with his dad. When at Man united his dad was the same. Neither like to combine their footballing lives with their social lives, and like to keep the two as distant as possible. That is just the character which they both have, it's a rarity in the modern game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain... Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 He's missed about two games since he joined, and finally looks settled after moving about regularly in his career. I'm sure he's happy at Leicester. They said on the Boro commentary he's not missed any league games, the only game he's missed have been in the cup, and the only minutes of league action he has missed was after getting sent off.

Grewks Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Pearson out Adkins in. adkins is overrated. £6 million for a striker who has scored 2 goals for southampton? And he then leaves lambert out on a regular basis for this guy. Not surprised he got the boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 I'm more worried about Pearson going to a prem team. He'll be at one next season. So unless a big team comes in for him (and I doubt that) there isn't a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brighton78 Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 I keep hearing rumours about Kasper - Reading etc - if we lose him over the next few days we're in serious trouble unless we sign someone. I'm afraid Logan isn't up to the job at this point in time. Shay Given as a short-term replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Big Balls Posted 29 January 2013 Share Posted 29 January 2013 Just a quick question - If Man United were to sell Lindegaard and went after Schmeichel as a replacement (i.e. a back-up keeper) what would be the feeling about that? Fair play for a lad who wants to play for his team, or Judas? I think it's extremely unlikely though, as United look pretty settled with Lindegaard and de Gea.
