    Chelsea apparently agree €35m fee with Leicester for N'Golo Kante, he is expected to sign a five year deal

    Looking at the type of players fans would sign (must score lots and lots of goals), it is obvious that we want our team to consist of a goalkeeper (because you have to have one of those weirdos) and ten players in the box shooting from close range. :)

    Meltdown at Leicester :biggrin:...just shows we're all prey to the big boys.
    Good signing for Chelski though.

    That's a steal if true tbh. He was a beast for Leicester. I'd love for us to sign him but we all know that that wouldn't happen unless you bought him first <whistle>

    Jeremy Pied very close according to French media.

    Hmm, we already have 2 average right backs so if we're signing a 3rd then surely either Cuco or Cedric are off? I know that Pied can play on the left too but we have Bertrand & Targett there.

    It's a signing that doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Trying to work out his position. Some sources state he is a right back - others state an attacking midfielder or right wing. Presumably, this means he is more of a wing back? Seems to have played right back for Nice however... Out of contract; if that good, why now a free agent?

    Pied is a converted winger. IF we play with a back 5 then Cedric and him are far better fits than Cuco in that system - even if Cuco does have a wonder goal in him!

    Meh, not exactly exciting but I guess he'll add a bit of depth - from what I can tell he didn't play at all last season?

    Far as I can see people aren't really moaning. A couple of people have said it isn't particularly exciting but not every transfer is.

    People can express doubts on club matters and transfers, that's is half the point of having a forum!

    Klopp trying to give Balotelli another push out the door. Who's going to take the gamble, is he still on mega wages or has the market caught up with him now.
