Anish Posted 31 July 2005 Posted 31 July 2005 No, cos if Levein really wanted a striker he would have got one by now.
Hazza Posted 31 July 2005 Posted 31 July 2005 Probably not before the start of the season, certainly before the transfer window though.
City Fan Posted 31 July 2005 Author Posted 31 July 2005 I hope we do sign one before the start of the season. Dublin and De Vries will never be suitable partners up front for Connolly, and Wright and O'Grady are even worse to be fair. I think Connolly deserves a decent strike partner.
john_lcfc Posted 31 July 2005 Posted 31 July 2005 i think we will sign another striker but the new season starts on saturday yes 5 days so i think it is unlikeley before the start of the season as these things take a few days to go through dont they so i voted "undecided" as im not sure
Tomassi Posted 31 July 2005 Posted 31 July 2005 new striker will come in january, he will give the youngsters chances to impress before then
Thracian Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 Make no mistake if CL does not address this problem, much as most of us think he's on the right tracks as a manager, it could be a suicidal own goal for his managerial ambitions. It will also greatly affect Leicester City's potential for success on the field and at the bank and the directors won't want that either. The Walkers Stadium is a theatre. With good management the seats will be full. With insufficient attackers they won't and the theatre can't survive without a busy box office.
BAFox Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 I think a Striker would need to be installed by Tuesday latest if he has any chance of linking up with his new team mates, so i would doubt even if we sign a striker he would`nt be upto starting against Sheff Utd, I fullt trust CL and i would rather he takes his time to get the right striker rather than be panicked into a poor signing.

If he fails to get one in, he will definately get one in as soon as possible. The fact we've missed out on about 3 strikers we've gone for has meant that we've still not got a striker at this stage in pre-season. I think we'll have one by wednesday.
rossporterlc Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 i want us to but levein has faith in de vries so i don't think we will
Ric Flair Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 i want us to but levein has faith in de vries so i don't think we will 147692[/snapback] What part of Craig Levein's interviews about his intention to buy a new striker don't you understand?
Thracian Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 What part of Craig Levein's interviews about his intention to buy a new striker don't you understand? 147695[/snapback] I am 100 per cent sure Levein is no fool so I am 100 per cent sure he will sign new striker's by the end of this week. Keep Connolly, sign Dickov... Sell Connolly, sign Dickov and one other. Sell Connolly and sign two others... The permutations being bandied about seem endless. Bet you won't see Levein much around the training ground these next 48 hours. Important decisions these and if he gets em right THEN you might see City as a reasonable bet for the play-offs.

The prospect of a new striker or two and countdown until we can give Warnock a good kicking.

surrifox Posted 1 August 2005 Posted 1 August 2005 Yes we will definitely sign a striker we can't wait until January with 2/3 of the season gone. My concern is why we have been knocked back so often (apparently) . If we are going to settle for CL's 10th or 11th choice will they be good enough?
