FoxinNotts Posted 5 March 2021 Share Posted 5 March 2021 If we were to believe the media hype, then today’s rumours read like Edouard is all but a done deal. 👍🏼 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about to get extremely drunk on cider, but I'll dig it out on Monday when I'm back on my work pc. It's definitely closer in my head, I love setting myself up for a fall on here Anyway, if you're reading Jamie, I love you and think you're great, I'm just not having you at the same level as Aguero, Haaland, Lewandowski and Mbappe You have offered a good number of limited opinions.

Surely Vardy, Iheanacho and Edourd would be plenty. Anymore would risk upsetting the squad dynamic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeg67 Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 It’s easy to be skeptical of Edouard’s numbers in the SPL, but his France U-21 goal rate is bonkers. Weak opposition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The level of player that don't even get a gig for France U21 is equally as valid as the scoring record. They are a nation that produce so many good young players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxes96 Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 Random one to throw into the mix but was about Lucas Vasquez as a defensively minded RW. Not the Mahrezesque left footed RW we were hoping for, but has spent half the season at RB for them so should be solid defensively. Has bags of experience winning the champions league 3 times at Madrid, and has 9 caps for Spain, and is available on a free in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this. Like I’ve said many times, Celtic would have no problem doing business with Leicester and as for Rodgers it seems his relationship with the board has got far better since he left, I’ve pointed out many examples of this. In terms of the fans, everyone has accepted Edouard will leave and wherever he goes I doubt the fans could care less at the minute given the other myriad of problems at the club at the moment which will be the thing occupying their headspace. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these players that will almost certainly flop wherever he goes after Madrid. Another Jese Rodriguez type, as much as he does a job at times for Madrid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, certainly wouldn’t be my first choice and not seen enough of him recently but saw he was available on a free if we’re short of cash.

Nick Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 18 hours ago, Stevosevic said: It's sell this summer or lose on a free the season after. Can anyone see him getting a new deal? I can - BR likes the lad but knows at this club he'll be third choice - but I'd have Nacho as third choice all day long behind Vardy and Edouard. We need three strikers for the depth required to compete in all competitions and Nacho is a pretty solid 3rd choice for me. The question for me is if he'll sign a contract or not on non-improved wages knowing he's a squad member and he's not being given the Vardy role... My feeling is that he might unless he can get close to 80-100 bags a week starting every week for a mid to lower table PL club and that's perhaps unlikely.

st albans fox Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 It depends whether benches are going to be extended to nine. If so, we could have all three on there and kel can get game time last twenty if we’re a couple ahead. If benches remain at seven then I suspect we would only have one forward and that would be vards or edouard. So without an injury to one of the other two, kel would spend a lot of prem games outside the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
