    Latest rumours

    Nampalys Mendy should complete his move on Monday

    We want to sign ex loanee Michael Keane from Burnley for £10M

    We are close to agreeing a £25M deal for Troy Deeney. Apprently Deeney likes the contract that we would offer

    Like the first one, not sure about the other too. Seems like a lot of money for two players with relatively little PL experience, especially Keane who obviously has already spent time here. Problem with buying English players, I suppose.

    I'm fine with one and three but not sure about michael keane
    i) Why are Burnley letting him go?
    ii) Is he good enough, would he displace Huth or Morgan with Was already as signed on as back-up
    iii) with ii above does he want to swap first team starter at Burnley to at best a bench player for Leicester
    iv) Has liam moore totally lost his way, I honestly don't know and if somebody knows I'd like to hear it.

    i) They are not hence the price
    2) Scouting staff seem to think so if they are willing to spend that much on him - either way, having a 35 year old as the main backup for a 31 and 32 year old isn't really that good an idea
    c) Champions League + more money + an actual chance of staying the Premier League
    · Seems like it - hasn't been on the bench all season and when Huth was suspended, Amartey was the cover on the bench.

    If that is the case, it's time to move away from Deeney. I do rate him and I think he would fit in to the way we play, but it's getting in to silly money now.

    Walk away.

    I thought a million quid for Trevor Francis was daft money - and still do. I dont get worked up any more about transfer fees - cos they are all daft.

    Id pay £25m but not a penny more. Walk away and leave it to Deeney to force it if he wants.

    The reason I'd pay £25m is because he would be a SUPERB partner for Vardy. But £30m would mean he would have to be a leading striker, which he isn't.

    Shame the Sigurdsson rumour has gone quiet

    Crazy we´re being linked to players that are going to cost 25 million. Deeney ain´t bad but 25 million. I ain´t got a clue how this evaluation lark works. How much do teams pay a tea lady now-a-days 50,000 a year ?

    Jamie Vardy could become even more of a Leicester legend if he's managed to spurn Arsenal in that manner! I swear Luis Hernandez has been on holiday for about six weeks? Or is he still having the world's longest medical?

    We were after him in Jan - now we are in the Champions League, it might be us that are holding off looking for better prospects.

    Left leg ok - right leg, 2 arms, body and head to go. Also, has to pass the test to see if he crashes the ***s with JV - could be a clincher.

    Then again i'd take Brady, so ....

    Anyone know what Trippiers upto at Spurs? Would still like him seeming hes not going to get in in front of Walker.

    ... wow ...we certainly have different views on football. :) ... Sissoko showed what he is capable of last night (he also destroyed Spurs almost single handedly last season ... twice) ..and he has made a French squad made up of incredible talent ...Brady in contrast showed just how unexceptional he is against the Belgians...did little of note all season and is in a squad of journeymen Irishmen... IMHO he will be far more comfortable in the Championship than the EPL .
