Imagine @CR17 if Leicester recall Cannon... but then he signs for... Burnley.... but then we sign Mendy. rollercoaster. Loving this window btw. Nice that stuff is happening relatively early as well.
Might not have anyone lined up to replace Connolly, they might think Ogunsuyi in ready to start featuring more? He is 18 now...time to start seeing what he's capable of.
The one reason I'm unsure if its Cannon is that it would make no sense for him to not have already been recalled by Leicester. If the recall last night was linked, then why not at the same time? It doesn't benefit anyone that Cannon is training with Stoke today unless there's still a chance he's staying.
Just strange that Connolly played the full game on Sat if he was about to be sold (risks if he gets injured) Makes me think something has happened over the last 24 hrs to give us belief that we have a better player lined up and that's why we are sanctioning the deal
Connolly going is good for all parties. Was worth the risk signing him, think he helped secure points in a number of games when coming on and obviously scored against Millwall and i'm glad we were able to hopefully get his career and life back on track. I do think it's the correct thing to do to move him on though, saves money on wages and opens the door for the forward RLB wants.
Hope you're right mate. Not convinced by any of the strikers we've been linked with if I'm being honest (Barry/Cannon/Diaz)
Probably has been a couple of things happen over the last 24 years to be honest...quite a vast timeframe
Can't enjoy the potential Cannon signing because there are no forwards called Ball in the EFL to pair him with. There's George Ball at Banbury but I don't think we'll be in for him. Ballard could do in a pinch but the pronunciation is all wrong.
Haha edited!!! The rumour was there were 2 medicals booked in last week when Le Fee was coming over for his
Hmm are we ready to bite the bullet with Cannon, do we really want to play the transfer russian roulette? Will he fire us to the premier league if he comes, I just hope he isn’t just a one shot wonder. if he fails it will be pistols at dawn between the fans and speakman PS I’m very sorry for all the negative below but it’s the only way I could write all my bad puns
I’m liking the similarities of Cannon to Broadhead. Different players I know but both Everton youth. Broadhead joined mid season and fired us to promotion. Cannon to do the same?
Broadhead was a summer signing I’m sure? Didn’t really get into the team until the autumn/winter though
Is Broadhead fit? I'd prefer him back on loan from Ipswich to be honest. Thought he was excellent here when fit.
