Finn Claw II Posted 26 July 2022 Share Posted 26 July 2022 If Tielmans is fit, he starts every game. He is one of our undropable players like Ksaper, Evans and Vardy He obviously wants to go and might not be world class but plenty of CMs play for Champions League clubs who are not world class. Personally I’d keep him for a year and let him go for free. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gunners have been linked with the Leicester midfielder all summer but are yet to make a bid. That is because manager Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu have doubts over how the 52-cap Belgium star would fit their team, according to talkSPORT. They report: "While reports linking Tielemans with a transfer have persisted, it is understood Arteta has not yet told his club to pursue the Belgium international. "It is over concerns he doesn’t have the physical presence the manager is looking for to run his team." Foxes owner Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabhaalso told the radio station they have had "no offers" for the 25-year-old yet this summer. The cooling of interest from the Emirates might pave the way for Manchester United to have a clear run at Tielemans. New Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag is keen to bolster his midfield after losing Paul Pogba to Juventus and Nemanja Matic to Roma this summer. United's top target is thought to be Barcelona's £72million rated star Frenkie de Jong. ...probably have their media team trawling Foxestalk!!! Any prospective buyer reading the Tielemans thread is not going to be convinced in bringing him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claudio Fannieri Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 Looks like the Frenkie De Jong move is dead in the water as he latest media reports are stating he will only leave Barca for Chelsea, does this mean Man Utd come in for Youri? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dames Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 Imagine reading that Arsenal of all teams don't consider you physical enough to play for them. This summer will have absolutely shredded Youri's ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The day after the cup final on here - £100 million if you want him. As soon as he signs another 4 year contract with whoever he becomes a £50 million asset.

Genesis1 Posted 27 July 2022 Share Posted 27 July 2022 Has anybody every considered writing to these newspapers and asking where they get their sources from and hopefully embarrass them. I just read an articled titled something like Arsenal and Leicester in swap deal. Then it's a whole page about how we need a goalkeeper so it would be beneficial to swap Tielemans for Leno. No actually concrete anything. I've read some crap in my time but usually a rumour has generated from somewhere. This one is just stupid. I do however think some European teams will come in at the last minute and offer to take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is good but not enough for a top 4 club and that's down to his fitness. I think only Man United would pay for him but they can afford Fernandes or whoever. I think the English game doesn't suit his fitness. When he goes on a free, he'll be a rotation option for top 4 in England but a starter in Italy or Spain. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 28 July 2022 Share Posted 28 July 2022 Just now, ozleicester said: Is it possible that he isnt as good as we think he is? There are some midfielders over the years who didn’t need pace - Pirlo is a good example but that’s not YT. In the role he plays, you need acceleration over the first five yards and he doesn’t have it. Also, the new referee interpretation of physical contact not being a straight foul hasn’t helped him. Because he can’t get away from his marker with pace, he often ends up in a physical battle initially and loses too many of these. In the past he would go to ground and get a free kick. Not so easy now. a couple season ago i mentioned this lack of pace would stop him reaching the level he thinks he should be at - I was shouted down but over the next two years most have seen this play out. he is good enough to play for a big six club here or on the continent but perhaps they look at him and think his value on a free with a 10/15m s/o fee is better business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
