Why do we care? We're not trying to defend him like yourself. Why do you care enough to keep defending him? When he was with us he could play for 90 minutes. How many times did he manage 90 minutes last season? Still a great player but with a bit more dedication with his fitness he could have...

Most of us think the same. We were on top until he went off. Same for Sheffield United.

So far I think this could be our season. The problem is anything can happen between now and the transfer window closing. But as things stand.... 1 Ipswich 2 The fantastic Sky Blues 3 Sheffield United 4 Southampton 5 Birmingham 6 Middlesbrough 7 Leicester 😂 22 Preston 23 Sheffield...

So Sheaf didn't get injured going up the steps to the plane?

What wage are they offering him? It's silly money in the Prem. If they're offering 100k a week it's £26m over a 5 year contract. Yes the £8.5m is a lot but it would still leave him with a few quid and give him a chance of winning major trophies. Do they also get bonuses for winning things? I'm...

He kept getting muscle injuries in the last few months of the season. It could be something simple like not being given the time to recover properly as they relied on him.

A very good match. An absolute w@nker of a manager deserves a club like Leicester.

I know your type. Your club is disintegrating at a fast rate. You're looking for a better club to support. You're worming your way in with us. And on your we haven't won anything. Of course we have. And we didn't cheat to win.

Depends on your views of these clubs and what happens between now and August. With everything going on with Leicester it wouldn't be a surprise if they're not involved at the end of the season. Ipswich look strong. Southampton could do well but they have a new manager. Of the other 2...

Are we now down to just the 3 sides that have come down plus Sheffield United that are getting the payments? IIRC Sheffield United only get payments for 2 years as they only spent 1 year in the Prem. Sheffield United rely on Hamer. Hopefully he is on his way out. We can only guess about...

I think it would be easier to list those who haven't said it over the years 😂 The best thing is I now have more time to go to games and it's normally cheaper to fly to the UK than use public transport in the UK. You can get flights for about €17 each way. Recently I flew to Scotland. Here to...

We're being run like a proper football club. No updates means less chance of getting gazumped.

Depends what our real aim is. They were never going to state top 2 is the aim. Myself? I'd like to see us challenging at the top of the table. 3rd or 4th would be great if top 2 doesn't happen. For this to happen we would 'need' to have at least a decent start.

Or they could try and do a Leicester 😆😁 How would selling their ground change things? They paid £51 recently for the land to build a new stadium. They have received grants of nearly £20m for clearing the ground which is contaminated. The work has already started.

Most signings are a gamble. A £70m or whatever it ends up as is a bigger gamble than we're used to.

Can't see many of us wanting a slow start 😁

It depends on what we believe. £60m is nearly €70m. It's rumoured he is willing to take £2m a year less in wages for 5 years for it to happen. If this is true it adds over another €15m. Then you have it where he is said to be refusing to play for Sporting again. If true that could help the...

More importantly how much have they spent on transfers that counts towards this seasons accounts. They're allowed to run at a loss of 39m over a rolling 3 year period in the Championship. Their time in League 1 were more to do with players wages. Could it be they go for it this season then...

Bit of an understatement. Looks like an excellent signing. Most importantly a young player with a lot of Championship experience for his age. I suppose part of my problem is we have started badly most seasons for years. Maybe Lampard can do something about it. We have what looks to be a less...

I hope he starts where he left off with Preston. But my view is still the same. Other than Grimes just about every player we have signed for years has had a slow start. I'd prefer not to expect too much to start with and be delighted if he is excellent from the start than expect great things...
