Had a fantastic start to the season and everyone kept saying they will drop points soon etc etc. But the only way that would happen is if they lost any one of Huth, Morgan, Mahrez, Kante, Drinkwater and Vardy for a lengthy period. If I remember correctly this core managed to play pretty much every game. The rest is history. I wish Leicester hadn't won the title, as now it gives me false hope that we can do the same . Our key players are almost like for like... Mings, Mcginn, Barkley, Grealish, Watkins Edited October 6, 2020 by Made In Aston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might consider Kagawa - 1 year deal with club option for a second year. wouldnt be surprised if he was still actually a half decent player?, might be reasonable for some depth? - also.......Japanese fans yup yup. totally depends on if we plan to sign anyone else....if we do its prob a no, if we dont sign anyone else Kagawa might be an ok freebie.

Mjvilla Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Just now, GENTLEMAN said: Is Wilshere a squad upgrade on Lansbury? Well, we have mcginn, Doug, Barkley, hourihane, Ramsey, nakamba for the midfield role. Lansbury can be got rid of so not sure We need to upgrade him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted October 6, 2020 Author Share Posted October 6, 2020 Wilshere is not an upgrade on anything as he's always injured.

His best season recently was that at Bournemouth, and that was not that impressive and injured later in season. Maybe one of the most overrated players in premier league history? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's fair. He had a lot of hype because of his huge potential. He never got close to achieving it because of injuries and possibly not having the right mentality ie rumours the smoking wasn't a one(/two) off thing. You wont find many people who talk about him fondly after his last few years of struggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn’t overrated, he was clearly a very good player. Injuries done him, made of glass unfortunately. When you miss the amount of time that he did then you fall behind, and he missed big chunks season after season for 3 or 4 years. Make no mistake though, he was very good when he first hit the scene. If I were him I’d look to get out to the MLS and try to salvage some playing time to show for a career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent_Bob Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 2 hours ago, sharkyvilla said: I wonder if Bournemouth would consider a loan just to get him off the wage bill for a year. I guess it depends on what offers they actually get for a permanent transfer. He would definitely fit in the squad quite nicely in the short term but long term isn't really what we look for in a signing. Only this season left on his contract I believe. Could be a deadline day bargain if they haven’t sold him by then. He want to go and Bournemouth want to get some money for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I want us to go for karlan grant. Him as our back up striker wi ger would be amazing. Scores nearly as much as ollie can play on either wing and is good with the ball at his feet. Only 23 as well. Scored a quarter of Huddersfields goals last time they were in the prem as well. One of grant, sarr or Buendia would be really good.

I think he was a decent premier league midfielder, but was absolutely overhyped. He was touted as world class or close to by some pundits and sections of the media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
