If three teams continue in the same manner as they have been doing for the last six months, Leicester will go down to Div 1, Spurs will go down to the championship and the Sky Blues will be promoted to the premiership. This is not a prediction or a wish it is fact. So if Spurs go down, and it is said they would lose £250 million, Madders would obviously be one to leave and as we are looking at Hamer wouldn't Madders be a better shout? He knows the premiership inside out and he wears the sky blues on his arm. What's the thinking?

Who said we're looking at Hamer? Or are you referring to posters on here rather than the club?

He's on about 170k per week, we can dream but it ain't happening

It’s a non starter. It’s not even in the realms of possibility.

Even if it was somehow possible, he’s coming off an ACL tear, far too much risk for us. Fair chance we’d make him our highest earner and he’d barely feature.

No chance on the wages he on. For the record don’t think we should sign Hamer for next season either

Why do some fans want to look to the past?

The futures bright, the futures new players.

I think his best days are probably behind him now as well, he's had a pretty indifferent few seasons and now a bad injury.

I always said he'd be our marquee signing when we get back to the Premier League. We need a No.10 too.

Wouldn’t get any where near the wage he commands, even with his checkered injury record he’s on 100k + a week.

I’d imagine we’d be looking at oversees players who would be pushing the 30-40k per week and hoping to pick out some gems similar to hamer when he first signed who are relatively unknown.

Relative to his peak at Leicester it's a big drop off. Though having said that his numbers last season are better than I thought.

I may be wrong, but wasn't he playing a slightly different role at Tottenham? He was very much a second striker / 10 at Leicester, but has been played a little deeper more of an advanced 8 for Tottenham. So his stats are going to be lower.

Happy to admit I'm wrong about the indifferent recent seasons, obviously one of my extremely rare misperceptions
