Ric Flair Posted 22 June 2021 Share Posted 22 June 2021 There is quite a talent pool of young central midfielders coming through our academy. Tavares is possibly the best as it stands but there are others too. Wanya Marca, Ewing, Braybrooke, Suengwittachon and then there's Alves, Cover and Briggs from the U16's that are hugely talented. Will be interesting to see what happens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much transfer business has been done? We've just ended the longest 18 odd month run of disrupted football and a lot of people want a holiday, clubs are in financial turmoil, there's travel restrictions all over the world which will slow down most transfers, there's major tournaments going on in Europe and South America where plenty of players are on international duty - and THEY will need holidays afterwards. This is going to be a slow and drawn out transfer window and people just need patience. It might be a couple weeks still before guys like Soumaré and Daka are holding up Leicester shirts for the cameras and they're the deals we can be pretty certain are already done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tavares has been with us since he was a kid and we should have either sorted a long term contract out a couple of years ago (would have seen his potential then) instead of running his contract down to the last few weeks/months, or cashed in on him a year ago for whatever we could get instead of possibly losing him for nothing… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 22 June 2021 Share Posted 22 June 2021 He looks to be competing with KDH, Tielemans, Maddison, Praet and Perez. And any signing we make in that area. He’s clearly got talent. He just needs the game time. Can we make sure he gets it with the quality of our midfielders is the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unless he feels he is already an elite player, then surely his route to the first team is to do what KDH has done, i.e. a couple of seasons on loan in the lower leagues and get rave reviews at those clubs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fair does. The counter argument is Thomas didn't need it. Both Thomas and Taveras played for England and Portugal respectively at their age levels. Tavares had a fair bit of interest elsewhere from what I can recall. He's perhaps weighing up his options. It'll be great for the academy if we can get another first teamer in a season or two. Chilwell, Barnes, Hamza, Thomas, KDH and Taveras would be fantastic for the academy's reputation. Edited 22 June 2021 by Foxxed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have a big surprise sooner than you think; I can guarantee you haven't seen enough of Sidnei Tavares...let's see what he's going first than how he really plays 😉😉😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 22 June 2021 Share Posted 22 June 2021 The shrewd move here is agree a new deal on 10k a week and then a loan move to the Championship next season, exactly what KDH did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember there has been no one who has left in the recent history from Leicester and gone on to do anything. Money comes with success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His game against Brighton would be good selling point. And his international credentials. I think he's better than KDH was before he went out on loan.

Ric Flair Posted 22 June 2021 Share Posted 22 June 2021 Worst case scenario is to one of the promoted teams from League One. Blackpool play some exceptional football but teams like Blackpool and Luton are hardly the glamorous sides that Tavares entourage would picture him at. The kid needs to wake up though, don't mind him being inpatient on playing first team football but get the pathway via a loan from us rather than going to another established team and being back to square one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to be careful with loans to Leuven and only send them players the manager actually likes and wants (Sowah and Iversen - until his injury) Benkovic and Eppiah, although seen as possibly good from our end initially, were pointless because the manager didn't want them 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was my son he was playing for man United right now ; you're really worried about the wages he can get why ? Why don't you work por 10£ where you work and live from that 10£ than after 10 years you will be a better worker than you can get 10.000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
