Nixon has a city link tomorrow

He’s on loan to Leicester. Eye for goal but lacks mobility.

How many times would we pay more than £10m for a player this summer if we went up and what is the maximum we might spend on a single signing do you think ? I think we will spend more than £10m on 6 occasions abd 2 of those will be circa £20m.

Let’s be honest there won’t be 10 premier league clubs interested in him. His career las largely flattered to deceive.

In the last 2 sub appearances Markelo has made a bigger impact than Esse and his crossing has certainly been first class ….. you can see why we didn’t want to miss out on him in January.

Could also have scored 6 but didn’t ….

Yes you would …. The spine of the team is exactly where you invest

Yes all well understood. But 8 year deals do come with the uncalculated risk that if the player proves to be appalling then you are either stuck with him for 8 years on huge wages or you have to sell him at a reduced rate and with a pay off for the player as compensation for a reduced package...

I think you need to read it again. Nixon isn’t saying we want Patterson over Rushworth. He’s saying IF we can’t land Rushworth then Patterson is on our list of alternatives. That list will have both plan and perm options on it I’m sure.

By Alan Nixon Coventry City boss Frank Lampard is setting up a Premier League move for keeper Anthony Patterson. Lampard fears he will need a new number one next season as Carl Rushworth is set to return to Brighton after a terrific loan spell. Patterson is on loan at Millwall from Sunderland...

I guarantee had we taken the chances we had today most of these scores would have been higher despite the performance not changing. It’s possible to play well and still lose.

@Saddlebrains made a few hasty comments that don’t hold up to much scrutiny but so what. Being a football fan is not about rational logic, it’s about emotion, passion, hope and heartbreak. Look at the Preston fans yesterday …. A number made the journey, without any real confidence that it...

CWR are burning their bridges each season with King. It started with how they handled the fans forum after the Robins sacking. Note Kimg tends to use the clubs own resources now for set piece interviews. CWR need City and City need CWR …. Gurney isn’t essential to either. I don’t mind Rob...

He was injured. The season before he was player of the season at Swansea

Why ? Has he turned Rushworth from a poor keeper into a brilliant one ? There is a reason Brighton turned down our £5m bid in the summer for Rushworth…. He’s a bloody good keeper with high potential. It’s impossible to assess the impact we have had on his capability.

First goal will be crucial Bristol City’s players and their manager will have points to prove after last night. That could be dangerous for us. If we score early the crowd could turn on them again ….

£40k

Legs have gone …..

Just as interesting will be the model we adopt …. Young foreign with high potential ala Sunderland or best of Championship as per Ipswich … or a sprinkling of proven senior pros to add experience to the talent as per Brighton

Is that the Fatawu who chat get in the current leicester team because he won’t work back ?
