Fox92 Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 Think we all knew this, but I'm glad he's come out and said it. Don't believe any of them, especially when it's printed by The Sun or The Daily Mail.
OxfordshireFox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 "Pearson said most people would probably never have heard of his real targets.".........Interesting
Stadt Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson has "no intention" of signing many of the players linked with the Foxes since they won promotion to the Premier League. Pearson said most people would probably never have heard of his real targets. "As soon as we [secured promotion] agents link us with players, I have absolutely no intention of following up," he told BBC Radio Leicester Manchester United striker Federico Macheda is among the names mentioned. Macheda is currently on loan at Birmingham City, where he has scored nine league goals in 13 appearances. Other sources have claimed Bolton midfielder Mark Davies has been involved in talks over a £2m move to the King Power Stadium. With nine City players and Pearson himself out of contract at the end of the season. the situation at the club remains fluid. But Pearson said: "The vast majority of the names we're looking at you've probably never even heard of. "Our recruitment strategy is exactly the same as it was before, it is just that we may be able to move a little bit quicker. "We have an opportunity to maybe do a little bit of early business, but some of the names I've been told we've been linked with I've laughed at. "Some of those names probably aren't in the right sort of shape to get in our side to start with."
Aus Fox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27067164 Close the transfer thread... Also looks like we could make some signings early on
GingerrrFox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 When Nigel says you haven't heard of most of our targets is because they were asking him about the likes of Macheda and Davies. However people talking about players like Waris and Wague are along the right lines, he always looks for value as well as talent.

Danizen Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 Who'd honestly heard of Vietto before us being linked with him?
willie-bell-in-rothley Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 In Nigel we trust, seems to get transfers coming in right.

Banks Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 In some ways I feel a bit disappointed. Was hoping we were going to sign one or two big name players...
Steven Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 In some ways I feel a bit disappointed. Was hoping we were going to sign one or two big name players... I don't think what he said precludes this.
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 No doubt there'll still be threads on here linking us to all manner of players that we won't sign
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 In some ways I feel a bit disappointed. Was hoping we were going to sign one or two big name players... He's not saying we won't
Danizen Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 I wish that Lampard thread didn't get deleted, that was a laugh.
cc_star Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 In some ways I feel a bit disappointed. Was hoping we were going to sign one or two big name players... Beckford, Mills & co hears ya
Fox Ulike Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 He's not saying we won't I think he is saying we won't sign big names. "But Pearson said: "The vast majority of the names we're looking at you've probably never even heard of."
kingfox Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 A French, an Iranian, a Japanese, an Australian and a Mexican all walk into a bar. They all say they are signing for Leicester City.
80footgiraffe Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 Hipster pearson "probably never heard of my targets"
AKCJ Posted 17 April 2014 Posted 17 April 2014 Who'd honestly heard of Vietto before us being linked with him? Exactly. I'm starting to get more and more excited about him.
