Thought I'd start a thread for our best 11 based on transfer rumours, because why the fuck not? Please update when fresh rumours land...
GK. Wilson
LWB. Dasilva
LCB. Panzo
CB. Kalas
RCB. McNally
RWB. BNC
CM. Sheaf
CM. Hamer
AM. O'Hare
ST. Yates
ST. Kone

Tbh it actually looks OK to me, I'd be alright with it. Will have decent options on the bench too.

Ibrahima of Lorient...not to be confused with Leyton Orient. Was a forum rumour, dunno the strength of it.

I still remember sky sports announcing the Novo signing only for the club to be silent until late in the day to announce Leon McKenzie for twice the price

Brewster definitely makes that 11. Him and Yates would be dangerous

You will be lucky if 4 of them are in the starting line up on the opening day!

That team wouldn't score anywhere near enough goals unfortunately.

I think we’d need another AM or ST anyway TBH. Just not heard any rumours.

As next week is the last week before the players will be back for pre season I would expect some new players to come in before they return.

In contrast to Shmmee's fantasy team, the team currently likely to start at Leicester is:
Wilson
Eccles McFadzean Bidwell
Burroughs Hamer Sheaf DaSilva
Allen Palmer
Godden

Hopefully MR is going to be a busy man, and that team will be completely transformed come the opening match day.

Still concerned that remembering the current injuries to O'Hare, Hamer and Tavares, we are left with:
Wilson
Burrough, Reid, McFadzean, Bidwell, Dasilva
Sheaf Eccles
Palmer Allen
Godden

And a bench of Moore, Kelly, Rus and Howley.

Yes the rumoured players might make a difference, BNC, Latibeavdian, McNally, Kitching, Yates and Simms, but we are still lacking depth, did we release too many players?

There isn't enough goals there for me. You have to assume that O'Hare (unless something has changed) is not really going to chip in with any goals. That means you need the rest of your midfield scoring regularly if you only play one striker.

Gus is one of our biggest goal threats but moving him back will restrict his chances to score as many. Palmer I'm not that all convinced about yet. Allen might score some, but Sheaf is quite shy of goals so far.

We need a bit more quality I think, and maybe a different formation, but it isn't that far away with a team like that. I'm sure we'll end up with a few surprise additions as well!
