Moxey says we have asked Leicester for Christian Fuchs.


Makes you wonder what the financial situation is, if we're looking at another loan for a 32 year old.

For Fuchs sake.

There. Pun done. No more needed.

The major concern for me is the players who underperform are getting picked regardless, shows the weakness of the squad and players not feeling under pressure about losing their spot. Adomah is not in the top six I would be moving on.

If we're considering paying someone 60k a week it suggests its  it that bad. Indeed I'd rather we stopped making this sort of signing. Especially short term

t would prove we have learned nothing. In fact we haven't learned anything since god knows when. BTW over on Villatalk some people are making a thing of a contretemps between Terry and Smith yesterday. Did anyone who was at the game pick up on that? I was too far away in the Lower Holte to notice anything other than the gutless display on the pitch.

I think we’ll almost certainly be after Rico Henry in the Summer - so maybe a loan at LB as a stop gap

Seen a we have a plan for FFP.

Flogging BMH and pumping money back in via that means, as HS2 going through it has proved advantageous. Or something.

Mail reporting that the Hause deal has been held up as he isn’t fit enough to play at the moment as he is carrying a foot injury. If it goes ahead it will be a loan with view to being made permanent in the summer.

I'm hoping we get a defensive midfielder in this week.

Fuchs would be a completely uninspiring signing.

Just read that it would be a loan until the end of season.
His Leicester contact finishes at the end of season and he's expected to go to America in the MSL.

Possibly a decent stop gap aso he's a genuine left back.
Think he'd need to lower his wage expectations though

Fuchs is a league champion, would be a good signing imo.

If there is a plan in place for recruiting a LB in the summer, then Fuchs could be a decent option.

Though our recent experience of signing fullbacks from Leicester is not great. Of our considerable collection of RBs, perhaps the best is playing in the Australian league!

So, assuming Abraham is off, who can we realistically get to replace him? This is a decision that could make or break the season.

Is it true that Maupay is in the last 6 months of his contract? If so then he may be gettable.

Otherwise a short term loan could tide us over (like Grabban last year) as long as we sign a permanent replacement in the summer.
