    Technically the best defender in the League.

    Would be a massive blow to lose him IMO.

    Especially when the only other options right now to replace him are SSL and Mills.

    If Sol really is going then Hull can expect a fresh Chester bid.

    John Percy said he expects us to up our interest in James Chester soon

    On Bamba if anyone offers 2-3M then i would snap their hands off.

    Hes a great defensive midfielder, but hes fairly unreliable at the back, when he goes on one of his "runs" its exciting and **** scary at the same time, cause you know if he loses it, we are left well exposed at the back.
    Maybe this is true as Pearson would prob prefer the defenders to stay ... you know ... in defense ...

    bet there is truth in it, but after his performances in the cup of nations it will not be cheap i am sure. Around £4m.

    ^This.

    Is exiting to watch but is a liability.

    Farewell Sol, it's been emotional.

    .. might not be popular with the Tigers but, unfortunately (for them) that's football .... it may nor be Chester ... but I'd be very surprised if Nigel agrees to Sol's transfer without being pretty close to signing a central defender himself ...

    I have always said i reckon Bamba will go in the summer. I think Luke Chambers and James Chester will be the targets for Nigel to replace Mills and Bamba. If St. Ledger has a good Euro then i think we might sell him aswell because his price tag will jump up

    Didn't you just sign De Laet? If so I think having him, Morgan and SSL as defenders will be enough if you sell Bamba and Mills, no need for you to sign Chambers or Chester, christ your like Man City, just greedy with getting players signed on

    You need 2 players for every position. 2 centre half positions so you need 4 centre halfs. Plus De Laet will probably be used as a right back.

    Would be sad to see him go. As ACKJ said, technically one of the best in the league but his decision making can let him down at times. Anything around or above £3 million would be a good deal. Would rather Chester over Chambers though. To me, Chambers seems to be a less talented version of St Ledger but with an ego to match.

    Chester is a first teamer with us, I doubt he will want to go to Leicester where he will be in and out of the side because Pearson likes to rotate with Morgan and SSL

    Chester would be a first teamer with Morgan. I think that's what Pearson wants.

    Chester, Bamba, Morgan and SSL.

    Bamba and SSL more squad players.

    SSL plays Right Back and Bamba can also play Right back and Defensive Midfield.

    What about De Laet, plus, hypothetically do you reckon a straight swap between Chester and Bamba will be fair/better on your part/better on our part
