Guest Bilo Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Wingers are now desperately needed. Jacob Mellis from Barnsley would be an excellent acquisition.
coatsworthstache Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Don't make me laugh Blackburn promotion rivals You don't think? Agreed they're a it of an unknown with those chicken magnates/lunatics in charge but, I'd be surprised if the bookies had them at much longer odds than they do us.
Harry - LCFC Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 So just two wingers now (I'm not counting Gallagher btw) and some people don't even think Knockaert's a winger either so yeah Then again we don't really seem to be using wingers that much anymore so perhaps it isn't too bad. Perhaps.

red5 Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 The only good thing about him was his song, good riddance to the lad, was never worthy of that song.
Bevan Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 This will definitely come back to bite us on the arse.
Dickov22 Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 I'm disappointed and can only assume there's more to it than him not being in Pearson's plans. Maybe he wanted to go. He's still really young and I think he'll do well at Blackburn. Good luck to him, good player
Renart Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Hmmm... I'm not sure about this. I always thought he would develop into a really good player for us. I am not sure we could have continued to offer him regular first team football playing the system we are playing but, personally, would have liked to have kept hold of him. Would much rather have seen Konch leaving than Marshall. In Leicester we trust. Good luck to him.
GingerrrFox Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Personally disappointed he's leaving but I feel he will come to regret this more than we will. He has a lot maturing to do but if he does it I can see his career following the same path as Robert Snodgrass.
breadandcheese Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Good luck to him. It hasn't worked out here but he clearly has talent, so hopefully can progress.
HitchinFox Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Will never forget that (meaningless) goal he scored at Stamford Bridge - best goal of the game. I sat among Chelsea fans and they wanted to sign him up there and then. "Who's he? Nobody beats Cech from there". This move scares me as I fear that in true Leicester way he'll come back to haunt us. At least we're not playing Blackburn in the last game of the season. To be honest though, and as has been pointed out – lots of promise, but apart from glimpses of brilliance he never really did it consistently.
coatsworthstache Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 best you can get on us to win the league is 10-1 , Blackburn are 40-1 Dammit! My argument crumbles!
kingfox Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Don't see why people are so bothered about him going. He probably will do well at Blackburn, but for some reason he was very poor last year, and what's the point of having someone who plays like he doesn't want to be here. That's how he came across, he scored some belters but that was when we first signed him. Last season he was a disappointment, but I'm really not bothered about him going, he hasn't been in the team, and we are unbeaten so far. Let's see what happens now, and if that £1 million can go towards a new signing then great, because that is a good fee for him in my opinion.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 At the current time, is he actually that much better than Gallagher, if at all? The most disappointing thing about this whole transfer is that he never managed to fulfill the early promise he showed with us - I'm not gutted he's gone, and we've got a very steady sum from the sounds of it - I just wish he'd have matched the expectations set at the start of last season. The boy clearly has talent in him, but he's almost the epitome of a 'confidence player.' If it means getting somebody else in that Pearson feels can contribute this is decent business, though I do hope we aren't shaving off our squad size for the sake of it.

And cool name change..
Jace Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 The more players we sell the more we improve great news
GingerrrFox Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 I doubt we will sign anyone permanently but the fee plus wages saved could mean some of Nigel's loan targets are possible now.
Dan Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 Really is bizarre what's happened to him but given how he's been in the past year I don't think we've done too badly for a million - as long as we do actually bring someone in.
Happy Fox Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 I doubt we will sign anyone permanently but the fee plus wages saved could mean some of Nigel's loan targets are possible now. Nick Powell pretty please!
Foxes1 Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 After his attitude at Barnsley away last season I will be glad to see the back of the big headed twat.
svensson Posted 28 August 2013 Posted 28 August 2013 who gets the nanananana na chant now?? Hopefully no one, the worst chant of all time.
