    City striker Jermaine Beckford joins Huddersfield Town on loan until 29 December. More to follow.

    No real surprise!

    Yak didn't run around enough to be liked by our fans and pundits - I think we should get Hume back! Who's with me?

    Whatever anyones view on Beckford, this move is the best option for Leicester - Nigel is the manager and Beckford just doesn't fit into his plans, not even to the point of getting a place on the bench or training with the squad - He just isn't Nigels type of player and we can't argue that Nigel didn't try with him, he was given plenty of chances - Best move him on

    Nigel wants workers like Nugent, Vardy and Waghorn

    Now Beckford has gone there won't be a divide in the squad

    He scored an England hat trick the other day and is significantly cheaper

    Waggy doesn't have the attitude and ego like Beckford. Waggy's wages will be a lot cheaper

    Waghorn offers something to the team unlike Beckford

    Beckford is a quality player, it just depends on whether you want the team set-up in a way he can work in. He isn't very adaptive so you have to take that into account. Grayson knows him reasonably well so if he can get him working then he will score a lot of goals for him. The issue is, Beckford works very well when there is a creative player playing through balls constantly (we had Snodgrass) and im not sure hudders have that, clayton is probably the closest they do have and he's probably not good enough

    Point of note, Beckford's on 49 aps for #lcfc - wonder whether there's a payment to Everton if he reached 50 hence loan. Stab in the dark
