    When you pay big money for a player from a different country, fans expect him to settle in straight away, just because of the price we paid. It will also take time for him to settle in properly. Look at Figeroua for Wigan, Steve Bruce signed him when he was at Wigan and gave him about a year, not playing, to settle in. And now look at him, he is playing in the Premier League every week, so it obviously worked.

    Charles Knockaert is 20. But because he is worth 2.5M we are already seeing some return from him

    He hasn't settled yet, still very young but he's a quality player

    Proschwitz on the other hand about from against the worst team in the league you have seen completely sod all in return for what you paid. He is in the best years off his career and if he can't even get off the bench some weeks something is wrong there

    Yes we have wasted money in the past. It's no secret so I don't understand what point you are trying to make

    Spot a Leicester fan who denies we've wasted money in the past and you can have a gold star.

    That your argument is valid and he has nothing else to go on.

    I'm making the point that a Leicester fan trying to point score against another club about wasting money on a player is rather ironic.

    It's like Jimmy Savile giving out advice on child protection.

    Proschwitz has been with us a couple of months, he's barely played, it's far too early to write him off.

    It's the only money our manager has spent and as we're still top six(despite some of our best players out for the season), that has to be considered very good business.

    That might prove to be a little difficult as Jimmy Saville is dead

    Sven wasted the money. Not the fans and not Nigel

    But what's the point in bringing up the past?

    Sven spent millions, not us.

    Nigel has gathered a squad of very good players on low wages and low transfer fee and we're currently in the automatic promotion spots.

    We can now look back on, in the cold light of day, Sven's shambles and laugh at any club headed in that direction.

    Your second. Because you deserve to be second just as we deserve to be 6th.

    Simple as that.

    As for our german he has done ok in the short time he has been on the pitch. only time will tell If he is a success or a failure.

    A bit daft to judge him just yet .

    And let's be honest ALL signings are a gamble as both Leicester City fans and Hull City fans know only to well..

    Both sets of fans ( LcFc / HcFc ) should be happy how the season is going so far ..

    Looking forward to beating you at the KC....

    No he didn't. He wasn't even our manager when Waghorn signed.
