    Koncheskey - Paid 1m - Worth 1.5m
    Bamba - Paid 250k - Worth 4m

    So you do think beckford is better than nugent....

    Anyway i think your wrong really

    kasper - worth 1m
    Peltier - worth 750k
    Nugent - worth 500k-750k
    Danns - worth -500k
    Konchesky - worth 750k
    Bamba - worth 2m
    Beckford - worth about 2m -3m

    Your values of your players is ridiculous. And your conveniently not including mills....

    Beckfords got a better record in the prem the Nugent hence why he would have a higher price tag. Nugent is better though

    Hmmm yet again a genuine thread ruined by the yorkshire tea =/ shouldn't you guys be watching... errr.... rugby league or summit??

    Anyway back to the point and on a serious note who do you think Nige will bring in? he has always been a manager working under a tight(ish) budget so now given the money who will he sign?? cant remember him ever being dig on wingers. Despite the competition in the middle of the park I wouldnt mind him nabbin Koren thought o_O

    I can see Nige bringing in possibly 1 or 2, but the January transfer window is always very tight to get transfers done.

    Didnt the 1-0 defeat knock any sense into your lot at all! Your not very good, hence the reason why you spent all that money on an average team with no width! If your saying you needed a manager to stand on that touch line and shout a few words to win you games then you sadly mistaken!

    i do think Nigel Pearson will help to be honest because i genuinely believe he is a better manager than sven but then some snot in a jar is a better manager than sven. But you are right about they have invested a lot of money on an average team (not saying you didnt get a few quality players). They will not get promotion this year, i would bet money on it and i woulda at the start of the season, in fact i put money on sven being the first manager in the league sacked....

    Dont under estimate a how much a manager does.

    Nigel will give us some width, sort the midfield mess out and make us solid at the back again.

    If we can keep clean sheets with a back 5 of Weale, Morrison, Hobbs, Brown, Berner i think the current back 5 wont have any trouble under Nigel.

    Nigel will get us going again no doubt about it but it might not happen straight away

    I reckon by february, leicester will be very good but i reckon as soon as you sack your manager, you kinda have to give up on the current season. Theres too much for him to do now, and i also think you are overrating Nigel slightly, im not saying he wont do that but im saying just expect it to take time, is patience something that leicester in general have?

    Nigel wont put up with egos, either they change or there gone.

    I wouldnt be surprised if Beckford's days are numbered. I see another DJ Campbell saga coming on with him

    No clubs have patience anymore, Difference is this season with Nigel coming in half way through the season compared to Sven last season is Nigel actually has a very good squad while Sven had to get in a load of loan players

    I am not over rating Nigel one bit, in his first spell here everything he did worked and we nearly got back to back promotions if it was for Yann ****ing Kermorgant
