    Would be willing to let him go for the right price, but thats surely nowhere near it.

    I agree - he also has the potential to become a first team player as well.

    Am I really the only one who doesn't think too much of Schlupp?

    Would definitely take £9m for him, we could get so much better...

    I think he is worth more about £12m but may wish to get away to play more regular football.

    If Ibe is worth £15M, Shlupp is worth more.

    If he wants to move then I would tell them £20M otherwise reject it.

    Who would you get as replacement for that much?

    I don't rate him much either, but £9m in todays market is too low for me, even for the fringe player he is.

    I think Tony Pulis has seen we have been linked with Robbie Brady and thinks Schlupp is avalible

    If Ben Chilwell moves on then maybe we will go for Brady but I cant see Schlupp leaving


    Im not comparing them but at this age Gareth Bale was very hit and miss. Exactly the same as Jeff

    Spend a bit of the £25m profit on Kante and this £5m to get a decent player

    If it was that easy to just go out and get a decent £25m player we would probably have done it by now.

    The reality is that Jeff now has his Premier League winners medal and is probably wondering how much opportunity he has of making it onto the pitch in the Champions League or even get a decent run in the league. If he is after regular first team football then he may decide it would be better for him to go.

    Christian Fuchs is likely to leave at the end of the season ... I suspect Ranieri will have him working with Jeff on the defensive side of the game ...

    Jeff has great potential if he learns more composure.. there is a guy playing football for England who is not as quick as Jeff ...is arguably a worse defender and whose end product is just as questionable ... Kyle Walker ... and he doesn't have a goal threat unlike Jeff ...

    Some have very short memories... Schlupp was a key member of the back 5 that kept us up ... and played excellently in that run ... I still recall the torrid time he gave Nathaniel Clyne (then at Southampton) in that run ..

    If Jeff played left back i'd be happier. Yes he does does have goal threat but also has a threat to people sitting in rows 15-20

    And who would you get that is a decent player?

    The only LB we are linked with is Robbie Brady who is more of a Winger tbh.
