Youri Tielemans left out of Leicester's team v Southampton because he was 'not in the right frame of mind' .
Out of contract next summer looks like he may be on the move this summer.

One we do want 100%

Nice hearing that from you Vinnie.

I’d be delighted with that one, although does seem a bit unlikely - but then I guess Coutinho was.


Arsenal have played a waiting game haven't they for him. All the gossip since the end of last season was he was going there.
If we swoop for him I think many would be delighted and a real coup.
Has a great range of passing, able to control a midfield and play 6 or 8.

I think it's one of those isn't it .
Wait for other clubs interest in a players fanciful choice and if that club don't make the right offer/move then swooping occurs.
Tielmans seems to have his fill with Leicester and clearly not signing any new contract. His head has been turned and Leicester finances are seemingly an issue.

I'm sure we would match wage wise what others would offer him and Leicester will take what they can transfer fee wise so I just hope Youri Tielemans can see benefit coming here as he most certainly be integral to our midfield and the team

At least he's got resale value and it adds strength in depth.

The downside is we probably won't need strength in depth when we fail to qualify for Europe again.
I’m not into this resale value stuff - the vast majority of our signings go for free.  We said that about the likes of Bert, AEG, Sanson etc and all are in a bomb squad

Good to hear Vinnie, but I'd like Margot Robbie as my housekeeper.... Doesn't mean I'm going to get her!

Totally agree 😂

As I’ve said for weeks/months - issue has is some of our targets are (imo far too out our reach - but I’d have said the same for Kamara)
They all have multiple interested clubs, chain reaction type stuff waiting for one to firm up interest or walk away

I do feel our utter shit show start to the season is about to cause mass recruitment panic and make us active

Don't bother, she's rubbish at cleaning.

Sarr is a strange one.  Talented player, certainly. Looks great on a highlight reel, but more than a little streaky form wise.  We have enough of them already. He has genuine pace, which is nice, but clearly in our current formation he's going to be competing for a place in the front three.  So that would be three, from Watkins, Ings, Coutinho, Buendia, Bailey, Archer and Sarr. (assuming Anwar and Bert are history)

To be honest, he strikes me more as a Newcastle-type signing.

If we get him, he'll do some brilliant things and get us all off our seats, but he'll also have days where we wonder if he's even on the pitch.

I think Pedro would be a better bet if we’re after a Watford forward

Sarr would fit in great at Palace.

I am really starting to believe we have zero clue what players we need?

I think that’s something that you have to expect from players like that. If you get a goal or a few assists every four games, they are probably doing their job well.

Is Tielemans the type of player we really need?  Is the more of a presence than what we have currently?

He's better than McGinn. Cultured passer and can intercept fine. More refined Luiz aswell.

That's ok, I'm sure I can find something else for her.
