January defenders

He's definitely worth 69m. Similar to VVD in as that he's massive, great defending and good on the ball. Can play LCB and RCB
Yes he can play LCB and RCB and, is excellent on the ball.

Not sure as a club we would pay big in January, unless the deficit to Liverpool is closer than it is now. May depend on how much we want the Champions League.

Inter are, as we speak, top of the table in Serie A. They aren’t selling Skriniar in January.
 
Maybe we find some gems instead of £60/£70m/£80m/£90m defenders?
Maybe we put our scouts to some use
I'm afraid gems are few and far between... If they are gems you get the matching price tag. I don't think with Garcia and THB showing promise you bring in a little known commodity to the squad. I think any team we approach for any player will suddenly hike the price because it's us.
 
Napoli are fucking shite atm, so Koulibaly would probably want out. And de laurentiis doesn't have that much leverage atm. 1-2 against Bologna now, 7th in the league, and 8 matches without a win.
 
who decided that not replacing Kompany is good idea? We would not have won the title without him playing in the run in, yet they do not replace him. I don't understand the complacent attitude the whole club has when we win. Instead hand everyone new deals and act like we have squad impossible to improve on. Always be ruthless, this is not charity.
Gen Q. How much notice did Comps give and how long do you think it takes to identify and then secure a top player?

Obviously thats impossible to answer for sure as nobody really knows the facts for 100%. But given Kompany was hesitant about signing a deal before finally saying he won't, surely that was a sign that it was far from guaranteed that Kompany would stay, then as a result should have been lining up replacements in around March/April just in case. Looks like we banked on him staying which is always mistake. Always do plans just in case.

But even then it was clear at the start of May to the club surely that he won't stay and about 3 months is still enough time to identify and secure replacement.
 
How's that Varane lad been? don't watch much La Liga but still fairly young and I remember him being touted as the next big thing not too long ago.
 
Doubt Maddison can play along side Foden, so do you think Rodgers a manager renown for dirty defensive teams, and with Ndidi, Maddison and Teilemans arguably the best defensive midfield in the league, would play with 1 defensive midfielder and so expose his defence in the same way as Pep, for me there is no defender at Leicester as good as what we have, it will be interesting seeing who you think could play the Pep way

We only play with 1 DM now, he just happens to be exceptional at his job.
Soyuncu is not as good as your defenders, but I dare say he might be one day.
The only thing we have which is arguably better is perhaps Ricardo, on his most perfect day Chilwell and dare I suggest (deep breath) Vardy....

cheers for your reply i have watched Tieliemans since he was the best 16 year old in the world and always considered him to be a deep lying play maker and as such a DM, but i take it you mean Ndidi as DM

No need to run and hide, your side are playing brilliantly at the moment. I think Vardy is perfect for your setup whereas I don't know if he would excel in a possession based team against parked buses, but your fullbacks are both incredible players.

Lots of talk about Koulibaly. He moved to Napoli in the same window that we signed Mangala. For about a fifth of the cost. I think we should leave our scouts in peace in Kazakhstan or wherever it is they're based.
