Seems like a redundant thread to me ???? Percy named him alongside Winks and Coady right at the start as players we had a strong interest in. In fairness, he did also say Steffen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispinLA in Texas Posted 20 July 2023 Share Posted 20 July 2023 He's got a year left on his contract and has said he doesn't want to extend his stay. Read that Swansea want at least 20m and Leeds are keen to sign him as he fits their kind of player, don't know if we are just as keen as Leeds. Whichever club he goes to Swansea are going to make a huge profit for a player they signed for only £1m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stadt Posted 20 July 2023 Share Posted 20 July 2023 1 hour ago, Finnegan said: He definitely isn't. It was the best example I had of somebody who doesn’t shoot very often but overperforms their xG excluding long shots. The point is finishing skill isn’t that valuable, surprisingly. Getting in a position to shoot often is more valuable. It’s why Vardy is a relatively unique player, he’s scored lots of goals in relatively few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dan LCFC Posted 21 July 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 21 July 2023 21 hours ago, Stadt said: We stopped supplying Vardy with the sort of balls he scored so many goals from. Through balls and more crucially - low crosses/cutbacks across the 6 yard box like Atletico at home. We attempted more cutbacks in that Northampton game than virtually the entirety of last season as well. When we have a couple of wide forwards we'll start sticking them on a plate. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was almost too easy, so perhaps that showed the level of Northampton, more so than our success at doing it. Certainly a good sign that we are able to create that space though with passing and movement, despite the level of opposition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ndidi on the right did ok, found space and timed his runs to perfection. This is a player we do not trust with the ball at his feet and yet he looked good going forward. Imagine a player who is made for that position, who holds on to the ball a little bit longer and can pick out an onrushing attacker. Borges is said to be going to West Ham, but he does that supply so well on the left and plays for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was a spectator feeding of next to nothing, always looking isolated. Our brain box of a manager could fathom what to do. Give him better chances and he'll score, as long as he stays fit of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, just that he would cost 15m and Leeds, Leicester and Everton are interested. I think there will be movement now the price has been put out there, clearly Swansea trying to get the interest now they have his replacement. He has already said he won't sign a new deal.

FrankieADZ Posted 25 July 2023 Share Posted 25 July 2023 (edited) if they want £15mil for him, we should just going in with like £12mil with add ons think we need to be quick with the deal tho but we are never quick Edited 25 July 2023 by FrankieADZ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVFox Posted 25 July 2023 Share Posted 25 July 2023 Seems to be very interlinked between us, Everton and Atalanta. Atalanta who have been linked with Piroe look likely to sign El Bilal Toure. He's also been linked with Everton, who will then turn to either Piroe or Kelechi. If they go for Kelechi I think we go in for Piroe. If they go for Piroe then Kelechi stays here. Either way, I think we go into the season with excellent striker options for the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
