But you are right, he's always had that face on. 1 minute ago, Fox 4 Life said: Agreed, his Instagram is very pro Leicester, always interactive with the clubs posts etc. He just looks moody! Pretty sure the clubs have a big say in their Instagram. He's a local Leicester fan, no reason not to be pro the club. But that doesn't mean your head might not get turned when a 'better' opportunity comes along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliFOXnia Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January Gone from Enzo being disappointed and shocked that Chelsea recalled Casadei unexpectedly, then saying how short we are in the middle of the park to we're selling Keirnan Dewsbury-Hall with 5 days left of a window and absolutely no bastard idea who we're replacing him with, or if we even can.. I know it's us, and we're liable to some absolute incompetence.. but the more you think about it, surely, we can't, can we? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, did he day KDH will sign for Brighton? No. Did he said Brighton were interested, Yes. Same as Man U were interested in Maddison and Arsenal were interested in Youri.....

funkyrobot Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January 1 hour ago, SecretPro said: Thats comedy gold. Brighton are a cracking club, playing European football with a world class manager, decent ownership and a good squad. Sure, they aren't at their best right now, but they will be well ahead of us if we get promoted next year. Brighton will be mid table next season & probably not in Europe. We’ll also be aiming for mid table safety should we win promotion. The model of buy cheap, pay low wages and sell them for lots of profit is a cyclical one that Brighton can’t sustain forever as Leicester couldn’t. Brighton potentially splurging £30m on KDH is already a clear departure from the buy cheap model that has given them some success (without actually winning anything.) I also struggle to see how a low wage playing club is likely to retain the services of a manager like De Zerbi for too long (If he’s world class as you suggest) - he’ll be head hunted within 12 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobyfox Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January It literally makes no sense to sell in January and, although we’ve taken some poor turns as a club, I can’t remember us selling a key asset mid season for a long time. Sell for £30m now or hope for promotion and get £100m+ in extra revenues. I can’t really understand it from the players point of view either. If we were a team who weren’t in the mix maybe, but we’re right in it. In fact we’re leading the charge at the moment. If he waits to the summer he can see what progress we’ve made and probably have many better options than Brighton. European football? They’re currently battling for a Europa League or conference place. They really wouldn’t be that far ahead of us IF we go up. FFP will ensure that Brighton fall back into the pack some point soon like it does all the clubs outside the rich six. Makes no sense and I’ll be disappointed and angry if it happens. Unfortunately that doesn’t mean it won’t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillehamring Posted 26 January Share Posted 26 January 21 minutes ago, Chelmofox said: Well, depends. Again, all any of us can do is add 1 + 1 and make 3, but how about: Player isn't happy (i think hes looked pi55ed off for a while). Maybe there has been a nibble and the club thinks now is a good time to do it if a certain price is met (presuming they have something else lined up if this goes through). The market is changing. Little is happening this transfer window. If this trend continues (and if FFP constraint everywhere get tougher) then maybe the max value we can get in the summer is predicted to be less than one of those nibbles now. KDH is pure profit. The club could be looking at our points position, looking at Akgun and Sensi (and maybe another), looking at Alves/Braybrook, and thinking the risk/reward favours cashing in. The danger is the club feks this up, the players head is turned, and we panic and sell him for £15mil. Football often makes no sense, but what we do know is that the future of this club is selling players from the academy. Now might be a better time than in the summer. More reasonable than earlier comments, but there's still a lot of speculation here. I'm not bothered about him going if there are signings lined up - but even a positive chap like me would be inclined to think this isn't the case, and certainly it's cutting it a bit fine if it is like this. Whatever happens to the market between now and the next window remains to be seen, but it stands to reason that his price will increase simply because he is a PL player (assuming we go up), in the same way barnes and maddison's price dropped. I can't believe that the club are so uncertain about our chances of promotion that they'd cash in now, just in case we didn't go up - and as we've all conceded, selling him would no doubt have an impact on that likelihood. I have faith in the board that they do know what they are doing (not that i believe there is any plan to sell him) and that if he does want to go they will sell him on their terms, not his and not brighton's.

Jordan Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January Since there are clear limits related to turnover on what clubs can spend on players, I really wish more transfer fee and wage information was public so that we could all do some North American-style “capology” instead of just being in the dark. Going from thinking we can make a signing or two, to thinking we have to sell a fringe player before we add, to facing a new reality where we have to sell our most productive midfielder to even function let alone do more business in just one month is, frankly, ridiculous. Way to go, City board. 👏 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurru991 Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January Maresca has said that he wont stand in a players way if they want out of the club. KDH has looked pissed for the last few games & it may be that his agent has been shopping him around. I don't have an issue with selling him for 30 large but I do have a problem with the timing. We have to earn automatic promotion this season or things will go sideways for us & I feel KDH is vital to the plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January We’d be honkers to sell him at this point. I also don’t get the long term appeal of Brighton either. Maybe that’s just me though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danizen Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January (edited) It's not like the club to make a decision that literally every Leicester fan can see is wrong and will ultimately be the difference between playing in the PL or playing in the Championship. The club has never done anything like that before. Edited 27 January by Danizen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolhandfox Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January “We need to sell to bring in,” Maresca said. “At the end it’s not difficult because we are happy with the squad. But with internationals and injuries, we are short. But we don’t definitely have to sell.” I don't think he would say this if KDH was off... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people really need to lower their expectations for next season if we get promoted. If financially we are ****ed, then even more so. We will be in a relegation scrap next season, no doubt about it. That's the normal route for any promoted team, let alone one selling assets and not investing in VERY good playing staff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridFox Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January (edited) It makes zero sense to have players like Dennis Praet still at the club while we offload one of our best players halfway to promotion. Surely his stock will rise as a Premier League player with us in the summer. I think it could be a lot of something about nothing but let's not jump the gun until any sort of bid is tabled Edited 27 January by HybridFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 27 January Share Posted 27 January 3 hours ago, StriderHiryu said: If we did something like that, then the move would be a lot more acceptable, because as good as KDH is, increasing the overall quality of the squad would be pretty sensible both for now and next season. Have we been linked with Whitaker? I could see Gronbaek who we were linked with going for 10M Euro instead of him. If we lost KDH but then had a replacement, competition for Mavididi and backup for Winks, overall that would be good. Though KDH proved himself in the Premier League as being a good player that can handle the league and physicality. Personally, I am bricking it right now. This has "sell Fofana and bring in massively worse player with 2 days left of the window and Danny Ward in goal" vibes to it all over again. Losing Casadei, KDH and Wilf probably not available till the end of the season is brutal. Forget the points record, it's all about limping over the line... Think that's exactly how I feel. My real underlying anger is that I've no faith in the people at the club to pull this off. Look how long it's taken just to sort Sensi (and it isn't even yet finished!!!). We'd probably buy Sensi and loan some Liverpool winger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
