    Now we can take a breath, enjoy next weekend. Job complete of securing premiership football which was always the target.
    Back On the roller coaster in August and it all starts again. Exciting times for Leicester City

    Lets hope we can kick on again next season, would hate another season in the bottom 3 for so long.

    Let's hope not. We should be aiming for mid table next season

    As usual an interesting transfer season is nearly upon us. Be interesting to see how much of the 70m TV money is invested in the team. I certainly wont begrudge the owners at last seeing something for their considerable investment but clearly we need to strengthen

    Its going to be hard to focus on which area needs the most improvement, lets say we can get Huth (£2m?), Wasyl and Cambiasso tied down, im not sure which position will be our first signing.

    Would like us to hold onto Kasper.

    Think that we need another CD as well as Huth, as we can't rely on Wasyl, Morgan and Huth not getting injured, i think that Pearson may be interested in Chester seeming he took him to Hull originally and hes performed well at this level, this will only happen imo if Hull are relegated, maybe something like £6m with add-ons, cause hes got quite a few footballing years left.

    Would like to see Trippier in myself to challenge Albrighton and maybe someone other than Konchesky to challenge Schlupp.

    With James out of action i may be tempted to buy another experienced CM.

    Striker situation won't change for me, with £20m spent on strikers last year, i think this will be the last place Pearson will look.

    Can we pick a different ride next year please. I don't like rollercoasters; massive highs, extreme plunging lows & make you feel sick with nerves. So, exactly like supporting city this year :emoticon-0132-envy:

    We reasonably gave a lot of the squad a chance this year, some we expected to do well didn't & there were some surprises. There was marked improvement as experience was gained & the benefit of playing with Cambiasso/Huth has further developed players. NP should now know who he wants to keep & where we need extras.

    Crucially, as we as staying in the Prem it will be easier to attract players. There was mention that there were people we were interested in but couldn't get, which wasn't just down to wages. We are a more attractive proposition in this transfer window.

    I don't see why Cambiasso wouldn't want to stay, he's now fit enough to last games & looks very much like he's enjoying playing for us. Get the man a pen...

    I can't see any of our players leaving who we would want to keep. We need to sign at least 6 players

    Huth
    Centre Back
    Left Back
    Centre midfielder
    Winger
    Striker

    With the players under contract I think the only ones we will try and move on is Danny Simpson and Chris Wood

    For me:

    A 'genuine' LB - at some point we will go back to a flat 4 and we will need Schlupp on the wing
    A CB - Huth and one other for the back 3.
    CM - with James out, i think another class CM with cambiasso would really help
    Striker? I see Onazaki being linked again. It all depends what NP thinks of Kramaric really.
