This entirely. 12 months ago I'd have been made up if we'd have got him for £20-25m (think the rumours were that Leicester said they wanted £40m from Arsenal) and you'd have to imagine that if he'd put a shift in this season then a) Leicester would be playing in the Pemiership next year and b) he'd be playing in the Champions League next season. Everyone saw that his attitude stank last season and it's affected his opportunities. That said if there's any manager that can get him playing like a baller again then it's Emery, reckon Howe would have had him doing well too so surprised we were never really linked (and seemed to not be involved at all). Then again Howe has consistently said players need the right character and attitude first and foremost so maybe it was never on the cards.
Just seen us linked to Ward Prowse, hope that's bullshit. Unless they change the rules and allow us to bring him on for set pieces and then take him off again like in NFL.
We’re close to agreeing terms with Raya on a long term contract but are yet to agree a fee with Brentford according to Romano. Be happy with that if we get it over the line, decent keeper.
Tielemans has gone to Villa Maddison looking like he's off to Spurs .. or, if not, Newport.. Newcastle... (easy mistake to make) Barnes looking likely to Villa Castagne possibly joining the Norf Lunnon unassailable lead bottle jobbers ...
I agree ... we also have 3 very promising young full backs, so losing Catagne and Ricardo Pereira) should me more than manageable ...
I mean the lad is confident, I’ll give him that. Can’t see Chelsea wanting him though, makes a lot of mistakes.
Meslier is ok, he just got his confidence totally destroyed this season, and I think it was right to give the lad a rest, even with him on the bench Leeds still got destroyed.
Good luck mate, he's a fine player ... you have the advantage over Spurs in terms of next season and Europe ... but he does seem to like Spurs ...
Leicester fans won't ever forget Perez part in the FA Cup winning goal (now being shown on the BBC site) ... £20 million well worth a place in footballing history ... and good luck to the lad back in Spain ...
Don't want him. Liability. Lightweight. Hes basically kepa lite. We already got a skinny ass easily bullied keeper thanks
