We were one of the reasons you won the league, you were one of the reasons for us to go down after that game in your place. But anyway, I really supported Leicester and been very happy when they got the title. Anyway I was saying that Ranieri will definitely take the club backwards in the longer term. I even said that before the season started. Although he should have a chance and I guess he had enough chance. If you were comfortable without being in relegation battle I would have said let him complete the season. But as it was, it was the only choice that Leicester had.

KAZZAM Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Would only take Perin on loan, Wilson on loan only too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ll get Benrahma and Kodjia will be as a backup till January. With Trezeguet being able to play there for the time being. I don’t think the club would put 20m+ in Maupay. He won’t be a huge investment. Benrahma on the other hand could have his price doubled once or twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Let’s buy him as well then joking aside I would like us to get Calvin Stengs from AZ Alkmaar to cover the wings rather than Wilson if we can’t get Benrahma. Kids got a very bright future ahead of him. http://www.football-oranje.com/the-50-eredivisie-u21-stars-to-watch-2018-19-calvin-stengs/ Quote He may have only played a handful of matches for AZ so far in his career, but the 19-year-old’s talent was clear to see and it is safe to say he is one of the most gifted wingers the Netherlands have produced in recent years. A tall and strong left-footed right winger, Stengs has explosive pace and excellent technique. He can glide past his opponents at will on the right and loves to cut in and shoot at goal, just like a certain Arjen Robben. Stengs has a slender figure but he is strong and hard to knock off the ball when he decides to drive at a defence. He also has the quick feet to beat his opponents in tight spaces.

S-Platt Posted July 26, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 26, 2019 Wilson I have no idea of his position on the pitch for 15 million that is a no no. if I was to pigeon hole him into an 11 I would rather Bowen from Hull or Joe Lolley for the same money.

AJ Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 5 hours ago, thabucks said: Perin is apparently unhappy with the wages we offered him.... Strange link for sure and probs agent nonsense but if we could get him in loan with option to make permanent when he is fit would be good for all parties leaving us more money to spunk on a striker. Forget him then. I would rather see the money going to get Maupay rather than giving a crocked goalie more pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why we would we sign a keeper who recently failed a medical at Benfica and is out until January with shoulder injury and has done ACL in both knees in short career. One of the absurdest rumours yet imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Southampton and Bournemouth linked to Bartłomiej Drągowski, a highly rated 21-year old GK from Fiorentina. Could be worth a look. Butland still the preference though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsieur Hazdazler Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 I can see logic to the Wilson links although think it’s likely paper talk. Wilson and Jota competing on the right with El ghazi and Trezeguet on the other side is a clear intended style of play. Wilson, albeit differently to Jota likes to sit inside a little and allow the full back to overlap, he takes on defenders in the same kind of way. It’ll make total sense in terms of two players competing for a spot in the side, and would allow Green to go on loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
