fleckneymike Posted 18 February 2013 Share Posted 18 February 2013 I think he's already signed from what I heard. A couple of weeks back from memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sods Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Not sure if Taft will make it at Leicester long term as Pearson plays his favourites , but I take my old fella down to the training ground to watch these u21/ reserve game & we love to watch this lad , some of the players that have been given a chance before him is astonishing really , his big chance will come somewhere else I'm sure . So you're referring to Schlupp, King, Hopper, Harry P and Moore. Perhaps he would of been given a chance if Sven didn't sign 4 players for every position. Its not as if we have been putting lots of youth team players in our squad, so the word astonishing is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sods Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Give him a chance, will be interesting to see how he does Yep lets chuck him in tomorrow night, Wes has had his time now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raw Dykes Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Good news for the lad, one for the future. Surprised we haven't given him more chances, in the past two season's. He only made the bench once or twice if I record. What are you recording? I agree, though - strange that he hasn't featured yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Does have a bit of an ego based on his Twitter but to be honest if he's a genuine Leicester fan and seems to give a shit about the club then I've got more respect. He was slated on here before and to be fair he wasn't like "they can all fvck off", more a case of "I'll prove them all wrong" and fair play, sounds like he's well on the road to doing that.

J.Lisemore Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Better than Moore? I'd say Liam is better but then, I haven't seen Taft play since high school. Would be unfair to judge until he gets a few first team games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfgang amadeus Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 He's been offered a contract because of the money. Right. Meant it's better to have a talented youth on a contract as you can them shift him for a decent fee even if he's not right for the system you're trying to implement.

Kierzz Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Definitely not better than Liam Moore at the moment (same preferred position at cb) . Had a loan to a club a while ago and didnt end well. However, great athlete since he is very tall and reasonably quick so for that reason I think they are keeping on to him. However, I think it is more of making money selling him than being a possible prospect for a future Leicester City player...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what it costs to put a player through the Academy etc for a few years and then how much do we need to sell him for to make a profit on investment?

ramadaone Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Included him in the first team squad against Forest in the FA Cup last year, he's not going to do that if he doesn't rate and trust him as a player. You said it - "last year" and he hasn't figured since Got Bolger,Parkes etc written all over it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousefox4 Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 I think Taft will be the best of the lot eventually , the Scottish press said Terry Butcher rates him highly but Leicester wouldn't let him go Inverness on loan , but then again what would Butcher know about playing centre half Ramadaone ????

A few months ago, his favourites were Wellens and Gallagher, then they got shipped out on loan... does it seem to you like his 'favourites' are the best players available for selection? Moron.

Carl the Llama Posted 19 February 2013 Share Posted 19 February 2013 Next person to say Pearson plays his favourites gets a lifetime ban. Of course he plays his favourites. I hear he's into the electric-type right now so I imagine that would include Raichu, Electabuzz, Magneton and the likes. If he's smart he'll chuck in a Lanturn to deal with electric's uselessness against ground types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
