jeffschlupp Posted 24 August 2020 Share Posted 24 August 2020 Anyone seen much of Marcos Acuña? 28, Sporting left back and available for €15m, apparently had a decent season but they need to sell. Used to be a winger so would fit well at wing-back I assume. Just read a tweet saying there's interest from Italy and England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise that each player should be judged on his own merit but I'm not keen on going back to Sporting for them to have our pants down for a third time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew this was coming but you wouldn't have said no to Bruno Fernandes or Rui Patricio. They are of course a pain in the arse to negotiate with as we know, but it seems a decent value deal in this case if he's any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Loyal Posted 24 August 2020 Share Posted 24 August 2020 If Gray is happy to be a bench/squad option, I'd definitely be giving him a new contract. He has just over 10 months left on his current deal, so we really need to start thinking about selling him or offering him a new one. I still think he'll only ever be good enough as a sub though, he'll never be a regular first teamer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the signing on fee, we could make a profit from selling Demarai and replacing him with Fraser who is an upgrade imo. That was the point I was trying to make.

Im not saying gray is good but fraser isnt great either and i would much rather someone who tries to pass for an assist like gray than someone like fraser who just mindelessly crosses. I’ve read it all now assists mean sh*t?! I’m sorry but if he’s making that many crosses does that not go to show that he’s beating his man to make the cross? How do you know it’s simply because no one has been at the other end of it to bury the chance? Strikers and wingers are mainly judged on stats and Fraser’s stats look good to me. As for the comment all he does is cross, isn’t that exactly what Albrighton does that we all love him for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_up_north Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 As others have pointed out - Perez has had a REALLY good debut season, in my eyes. 8 goals and 4 assists from a position that isn't his preferred place. I was very skeptical and I still don't quite think he's worth the amount we paid for him but if he does that for us, or even nudges up to 10 goals, over the next 2-3 years then we can't really say no to that. I'd be happy for us to not buy a striker IF - we get a proper, 7/10 every game winger. Doesn't have to be Mahrez v2 but he does have to play wide and take on a man - we have Nacho and Perez as back up strikers/ second strikers I'd really like us to go back to 442 or 4411 for those tough games. Vardy up top with a striker to link up - which both Nacho and Perez seem to do well. I'm not against short, possession-based play, if there's a Plan B but I can't have another season where we get found out and just pass it round the back. PS - I really don't rate Traore. If I was Wolves, I'd take anything about £50 million for him. He's had one decent season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
