    The only reason that Wes would want to go back is for Billy Davies, they had a brilliant defence with him the first time around, but pretty sure all 4 of those defenders have moved on, its not like Wes would be going back to the same team.

    ugh, another case of Leicester fans overvaluing their players...

    Im still not sure what to do with Waggy

    He can still offer something as he proven when he got a run in the team

    But can he become a impact player off the bench?

    Waggy hasn't really been the same player that we saw on loan from Sunderland.

    I've heard rumours (albeit from the incessant bullshit machine that is Twitter) that we are talking to Wes about a new deal.

    I'm with FF - I'd be incredibly, incredibly surprised if he left. Pearson brought him in, immediately made him club captain. Wes was immense for us last season, seems settled and looks as if he enjoys playing for the club.

    The only reason Pearson would even think about letting him go would be if Morgan asked to leave. And I'd be surprised if that happened, at least at this point in time.

    Maybe offer Lloyd another contract, but not more than a year surely? He's 31 in Sept.

    He doesn't perform (physically) different from when he first signed for us to be fair. When he starts to slow down is when we start thinking like that. Currently he's a very useful squad player who has the ability to win matches on his own (albeit very rarely).

    I thought Morgan was younger.

    He has a year on his contract still. We give him another that's two. Can't see him getting near the first team after that.

    Ian Stringer ‏@StringerSport 7m
    Forest tryin to be smart with media? Wes Morgan back to #nffc ? Andy King 'interest'? 2 players least likely to go #PRforfans

    GeoffPetersTalkSPORT ‏@talkSPORTgeoff 5m
    The only way I see Wes Morgan leaving #LCFC is if #nffc make a ridiculous bid and the player wants to go back. Forest trying to unsettle him

    @talkSPORTgeoff correct. Glad it's that obvious.

    I wouldn't mind so much if it was big clubs bidding for the players we haven't said they can leave, but is FFP really going to screw us over so much that derogatory bids are coming in for our bet players, £1.5 M for Wes, **** me backwards<grr>

    Well if we accept Hull's 1st bid and Forest's bid we would have sold Kasper Schmeichel and Wes Morgan for 2M

    Thats what we paid for them

    Kasper's price tag is 4M as we know

    Wes I would want about 2.5M

    Really? We'd have a very tough time replacing him. I'd only think it would be sensible to let him go if the offer was too good to turn down. £2.5m doesn't sound too good to turn down to me.

    He would be hard to replace but its still possible. Wes only has 12 months on his contract plus I dont see anyone in the championship spending that type of money unless they have parachute payments to cover them. Forest wont go over 1.5M

    I wouldnt sell him at all but if he asked to leave then that what I would want. I would go straight in for Jack Hobbs if he is available and then go after another centre half or even let Sean St. Ledger stay and get rid of Zak ****bread

    Yes, if he asked to leave, that would be different. But as he hasn't, and I don't believe he will, then I'd expect him to stay, even if someone does offer £2.5m.
