VillaChris Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Jeff Schlupp who was a decent young striker but Leicester converted him to a Left Back/Left Winger and since then hasn't been good at all. Definitely better as a striker. You sure? He struggled to get in the team first half of the season as Leicester had horrible run of form but thought he was excellent from xmas onwards. He hasn't played as a striker for a long long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Agree thought he was one of their better players. Was very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hope we take a punt on Miarez from Leicester. He has always impressed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Shclupp and N'zonzi are decent links if true. Along with Richards there might be a push to improve the team physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Schlupp isn't good enough for us in my opinion, not the level of player we should be looking at, i'd love n'zonzi on the other hand 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomh621 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Shlopp more like. Are we trying to guarantee a get away from relegation or flirt with it some more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I didn't see enough of Schlupp so can't really comment but I do rate N'nonzi. Always looks good when I see him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostarapter Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I said N'zonzi a phew weeks back on here,and was told unrealistic or why would he make a sideways step! Which of course I argued! Think he is who we need if we are going to go with a 3 man midfield or someone similar. One deep playmaker,one ball winner and one box to box type. N'zonzi being the ball winner.Apparantly N'Zonzi has said he wants European football. Also.... Why would he make a sideways step? Lol don't get me started!!! I do think it would be great to have him with Delph and someone who can pass sitting behind them! Also I think him and Delph would be ok as a pair if we went with a two up top.

VillaChris Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 N'zonzi reminds me a lot of Delph...he's not a DM in the Stoke team (that's Whelan) nor is he the linkman to the strikers (that's either Adam or our friend Ireland), he's the inbetween midfield who'll help out defending and also get forward. He should score more goals than he does so similar to Delph. They could probably just about play together in midfield but it's clear the three midfielder would needed to be very reliable in terms of getting goals so no chance that could be Westwood or Sanchez. I doubt we'll be signing him anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Bamford has applied his trade in the championship all last season, yes I was exaggerating. Seen this a few times in the last couple of weeks and feel the need to, not be a grammar nazi by any stretch, but just issue a minor correction in case people use it in the real world and end up getting quiet sniggers from behind the hands of others... It's actually "plied his trade", or "to ply one's trade", rather than apply one's trade, with "ply" meaning "practicing or performing diligently" a trade ok back to school for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSmirch Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Has Schlupp recovered from the mega tackle that Clark gave him? I'd take N'Zonzi in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 N'zonzi would walk into our starting 11, can't see why he'd come here over Stoke though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodytom Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Nzonzi is pretty meh for me too. Not a bad player but we ain't turning these shambolic years around quick with players like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
