Id almost say we need another tettey! Dorrans was having it passed around him today. We missed Tettey so much. Russ was dreadful but Pool had faaar to much midfield possession for me. Without him we will continue to leak goals. We deffo need another CB too.
 
As i said the other day, my friend who works in HR says we definitely have a replacement for Hoops lined up. I know many say we dont need another striker but still exciting!
 
Mame Diouf anyone? Been linked on a couple of sites. I know we don't Desperately need another Striker but he scored 12 for a half decent, Stoke last season and has 3 this (in limited appearances). Be nice to have him, Mbok and Jerome as our three options for the lone role!

Fingers xd for another CB to come in first!

Oh really? I've not seen that.

He's class. He'd be a quality signing.

He'd fit the AN mould. Works himself into the ground and will run all day. Would also add pace to the squad. Would be good if there's any truth to it.

They paid quite a bit for him in the summer. The form of Wes Morgan and Robert Huth seems to have kept him out of the squad all together and he has not even been making the bench recently. Has played as a RB too, but is a CB and played in the cups for them there.

Could be worth a shot, but I don't like us borrowing from fellow PL sides unless we have a buy option.
 
I work with a lot of Leicester fans so I will ask the cocky bigheaded bastards their opinions, even though they'll probably cry that mean's Wes Morgans place in the squads safe.

We certainly need more defensive options another centre back and I really hope that the left back saga is sorted.

Sorry, back home now so can include the link.
If it helps to solidify our back line, then I'm all for it. We simply cannot afford the number of collective defensive lapses we've had in the first half of the season. Well, not if we still harbour ambitions of playing in this league next year!

The gf just showed me a news page with that on. It's funny, I looked him up the other day, because read some gossip that they were after a CB I'm a huge fan of, and were looking to offload this defender at the same time.

He looks decent. Leicester spend about 5.5m on him in the summer, and we know their recruitment has been generally pretty damn good resonantly. He's 6'2, strong, athletic. Decent tackler, very good in the air. I think he can play all along the back line as well. To be honest, any defender is welcome at the moment. Get him in! Can't be much worse than we have. I'd rather we used our spare loan slot for a defender.
 
He was hotly tipped to move to move to Sampdoria this winter. There was a comment on one of the reports linking him to them, saying he was never given a chance, but always looked like he was going to get booked with his rash challenges.

Looks like he's an all or nothing type defender.
