Although I know it would be a good signing I’m getting flash backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been impressed with John Egan of Sheffield United and whilst our defence is fine when everyone is fit I wouldn't mind having someone like him in the squad. This is a good shout. Egan would be a massive upgrade on amartey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Loyal Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 Really do think we need to sign a CB, Evans is a year older and I don't want to see Amartey filling in a decent amount of time there and we're also losing Morgan and Fuchs who can slot in there. It won't be someone worth 30m, but someone out of favour elsewhere, or someone who only has 12 months left on their contract. Not sure if it'll be Tarks, we obviously fancy him but I reckon Burnley will still want 20m for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Evans now our only experienced centre half, I'm not sure we'll be in for another centre half in their early 20's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVFox Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 Really left field shout, Jose Fonte sounds like he is leaving Lille on a free. As an experienced centre back option it might make sense? yes he's 37 but in a way would be a Wes replacement (without the dodgy back) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxondale Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 I’d like a natural left back, a goal-scoring old-skool centre forward and a wildcard tricky French winger. Probably a backup centre half too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We signed Bennett as cover last year and that was a monumental failure. We need 4 top centre backs in my opinion and would try to get Tarkowski as he would be Evans' natural successor in a year or two. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerard Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 2 hours ago, North Leeds Fox said: In the athletic article this morning on Bournemouth, it says we enquired about brooks last summer. Hasn't had the best season but has tonnes of talent. Danjuma too would be worth a look. It was reported they wanted £50m to sell Brooks last season https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/12653626/leicester-david-brooks-transfer-50m/ He looks to have had a terrible season for such a highly rated player in the Championship with just 27 starts and with 5 goals, 7 assists a poor return. Also I noted when Bournemouth had a man sent off early on in their play off SF he was the one sacrificed. It looks he has fallen that far that he is now considered just an average Bournemouth player rather than their star. https://www.whoscored.com/Players/295084/Show/David-Brooks Contract expires in a year so Bournemouth would likely sell as if he is any good he won't be signing another. Might be a project for BR as a "broken player" who can be picked up on the cheap? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJD_LCFC Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 Would anyone take Deli from Spurs this summer? Apparently they want to sell him. Still at an age where Brendan can develop him, and can add to Maddison, Tielemans in midfield options. Personally think could be a good player for us. Maybe a move can kick start his career again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ttfn Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 (edited) What’s James Milner up to? Seems to play increasingly rarely for Liverpool, probably got a couple more years in the tank, experienced winner who can play in a few positions. Has also signed for Rodgers before.

Feel that’s one area we have been lacking over the last 2 seasons some real experience and a winner, like a Cambiasso. I think I remember Klopp saying that Milner was fittest player in their pre season or something last summer which wouldn’t surprise me as he seems a consummate professional. Don’t think he’d come here but the sort of character we should be looking at with Morgan and Fuchs leaving. Preferably a CB as 4th choice but experienced head when we are looking to see out games. dunno who that could be.. Tarkowski maybe if he’d come, and at a reasonable price. Would people take Cahill as 4th choice, looks to be out of contract this summer, and a wealth of experience. Not seen much of him recently tbf not sure if he’s struggled with injuries?

kingfox Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 There’s a few experienced CB’s out of contract this summer. Javi Martinez - Bundesliga & Champions League winner Andrea Ranocchia - Just won Serie A with Inter Jose Fonte - Just won Ligue 1 with Lille Gary Cahill - Won all English Cups as we know If we want to spend on one, I’d consider Dunk over Tarkowski tbf, just because of his leadership qualities.

Loads of reasons why it wouldn't happen, not least that he's probably going to get a chance at the Emirates next season and I imagine we're looking at more experienced options at CB, but I'd love it all the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a project and a half, we do not have time for this and he needs to grow up, he needs to become self aware as his career is tanking. I would rather have JLinz that take a chance with Ali.
