Those Russian peasants won't wash the money for him before they hand it over will they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor do we though tbf. *Sorry, total misread* i though that read ‘Leicester really don’t need to sell, do they’. hopefully my response was self explanatory.

I hope we will be first in line! He won’t leave this summer. He got enough game time and scored enough goals to keep him interested in staying this season. If he finds he can’t make it there this season though he would likely look for a move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what is happening behind the scenes and no point in speculating. just have to wait,and see I guess. It's a strange one though mate. I mean, considering we stayed up by the skin of our teeth you'd think we would be wanting to get players in very early to give them every chance of hitting the ground running. Maybe, Suso was given the remit of lining up players for both outcomes and those that he came up with for staying up were simply not deemed good enough to push us forward? Hence, they parted ways and brought in Lange. Maybe he has been given the remit of what is required and he's in the throes of delivering such requirements.

TRO Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 (edited) 46 minutes ago, AvonVillain said: Equally, I can see Tammy becoming so restricted to bit-part player that he'll want to leave for first team football. Chelsea, do not have the financial pressures, for Tammy to become an issue......they can sit on him and watch him develop and it seems he is happy to just be at Chelsea. I think we need to have more fortitude in who we want, that is within reason...and stick to our guns. I remember speaking to Brian Little at one of the supporters forums many moons ago.....and he made reference to being careful not to be publically linked with too many players, that we don't get.....he said its a bad vibe for prospective recruits.....He said its important to be reasonably sure the targetted player, wants to come to us and we are successful in getting them.....too many rebuffs is not good......thats if we have had any?

I can totally see that logic but we don’t have much control over that these days with fake accounts on Twitter linking us to everyone. I really wish the club would get one decent one over the line tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheltenham_villa Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Our lack of action could be a positive, I'm assuming it means our targets are competitive and we arent settling for players who just happen to be available or wouldnt improve a club that just escaped relegation.

Very strange thing to be doing to their record signing if it was COVID related. Surely Ashley needs all the good news he can at the moment rather than throwing players under the bus....?
