taupe Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 So top dribbler but with poor progressive passing, link up play and ball retention.... does that mean he beats 2 men and runs into the 3rd and gets dispossessed? We've got Perez for that.... excepting he does it more quickly and doesn't get past the 1st man! (Btw, I'm being flippant not negative) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we have spent diddly squat all season (gross) now we find ourselves in a position most predicted. It’s the final push or bust. Sad but true….

nettle Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 I think this guy could give us the balance we need on the right hand side. A new signing with a bit of pedigree what's not to like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's very much like Barnes in that regard but whereas Barnes ability to beat a man has declined, Gonzalez is strong at doing so. His assists seem to be where he's created space and then applied a relatively simple pass to a player, rather than defence splitting balls like Mahrez used to wizard up for us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have done the same. We would have had more if we had cashed in on Maddison and Tieleman. We just had one really poor window. LCFC last 5 years Maguire 80m (17m cost) Fofana 80m (30m) Chilwell 45m (Free) Marhrez 65m (400k) BAFC last 5 years Marc Cucurella 65m (18m) Yves Bissouma 29m (16m) Ben White 50m (Free) Please see to forget the ones that went wrong at Brighton like they don't have them Alireza Jahanbakhsh 19m Neal Maupay 15m Jakub Moder 10m 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbtcity Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 He’s going to be superb for us! I base this off absolutely nothing having only seen YouTube clips just a gut feeling…. Adding an Argentinian winner to a squad of spineless toads can only be a good thing 🙏🏻 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_favourite Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 (edited) So on a confidence scale, how are we thinking? 10 - it’s going to happen 1 - it’s a distraction technique away from everything that is wrong and it will ‘fall through at the last minute’ Me, not so sure.

Stevosevic Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 Blimey he’s already on a wedge. Fiorentina are looking for about £30million for the 24-year-old, who is believed to earn a salary of about £83,000 a week – more than any other player has ever been paid in Florence. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11632025/Leicester-accelerate-30m-Fiorentina-attacker-Nicolas-Gonzalez.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this will happen on that basis. Unless we pay it. The Argentine attacker is a priority target for the Foxes, who are prepared to make him one of the highest-paid players at the club if they can agree a fee with the Serie Aside.

Dames Posted 13 January 2023 Share Posted 13 January 2023 18 minutes ago, enmac said: These terms aren't too bad actually but surely he's going to have a stonking appearance fee if his wages at Fiorentina are to be believed there's no way he's taking a pay cut. Sensible by us for a change though if that's the case because if he does end up injured we don't pay out as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that £83k a week in the Dailymail is a load of rubbish The below suggests he is on €2.7m a year / €52k a week / £46k a week https://www.violanation.com/platform/amp/fiorentina-transfer-rumors-news-reports/2021/6/23/22540468/fiorentina-nicolas-gonzalez-vfb-stuttgart-official-transfer-sign-buy-sell-fee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
