    They need to sell someone to sign Drenthe and Staqualursci

    They didnt want to sell Beckford

    The amount of time Schmeichel has put him in with a ball over the top and his first touch has let him down everytime, if he took a decent first touch he would be in on goal but he takes a poor touch and ends up out wide and he cant hold the ball up and nothing comes of it.

    1 thing that really annoys me about him is when the actually does chase down the defender he ends up stupidly fouling them and that gets them out of trouble

    If they don't need the money then the fee won't matter. He's been transfer listed, dropping his value significantly.

    Can you ****. His goals to minutes ratio this season doesn't touch McCormack's, let alone his and Becchio's combined.

    And the team isn't 'balanced' with him in. It means midfielders like Snodgrass, Clayton and others would get less goals themself because they have to create for The Almighty Jermaine rather than have a go themselves. It makes us predictable and one-dimensional. Like I say, when he plays ****e, the team plays ****.

    Of course McCormack and Somma are instinctive. Just because McCormack has better all-round play than Beckford doesn't mean he's a less predatory striker of the ball when he spots a chance.

    Al I can say is that you will have great difficulty getting your money back on Mills and Beckford!

    I dont think we will get our money back on Mills

    I would take 2M each for them. Overall the represents a 2M loss because we paid 6M for them and if we get 4M i would be delighted

    You have no chance, neither are good enough for the Premiership and no clubs in the Championship are spending any cash (apart from Leicester).

    <laugh> Little Leicester fans thinking any of their players have a resale value anywhere close to what they paid <laugh>

    No chance mate. Not after the season they've had at Leicester, you'd be lucky to get 1 mill for Mills.

    Well Reading are rumoured to be coming in with a 2m bid which would be half the fee we payed.

    As previously stated, Beckford has NOT been transfer listed by Leicester City FC, this means this whole topic is bollox.

    He may be transfer listed in the next few hours/days/weeks/months etc, or he may be the main man at Leicester City.

    And you would know this how?

    No one knows for sure either way but i think i do know is Beckford was told to stay away from the end of the season awards

    He was told to stay away from a club event... even if a player is out of favour that is just pathetic and unprofessional.

    Either way, I doubt Reading are going to pay £2 million for someone so "lazy"

    Brilliant statement, your facts are amazing, spot on in every way.

    I've heard Chelsea or Liverpool could win the FA Cup this season!
