It's a preference not a demand.
If Pep wants a player & it takes til the last day, they will continue negotiating. If there is someone else who he is equally happy with signing, then they can change targets.
Otherwise, Pep can start with the same team & bring in any new players when ready.
Although most on here would love a mirriad of massive signings, I think it’s great that we do not need a mass overhaul as in seasons passed, so they’ll really be no huge number of players to “ bed in,” so really we can take up where we left off from last season.
No they’re not, but don’t let facts cloud your opinion.
If you would like me to indulge you and explain why please feel free to ask.
Google and a bit of research yourself will, however prove your point as being invalid.
Here’s the figures for the most recent available from 2016/17:Yep agree with you premier teams are loaded with the money in the game. Out of interest how much profit did your club make laser financial year? But like most clubs in premier if you go down your in trouble just because of the wages being paid in premier and championship money is a pittance. Look at Vila now they are in big trouble.
Fair enough.Don't bother Pal, Leicester are of no interest to me.
It’s imminent lads.
Close to the ‘bullshit’ button? :)Where’s the “like” button
I genuinely hope that the ambition is real, but it is getting more difficult to realise. Leicester might get a slightly easier ride. Every neutral fan wanted you to win the Premier League a few seasons ago, but as soon as you threaten to regularly challenge for honours the attitude soon turns ugly. Leicesters journey will require season upon season investment in the squad, which the established elite have tried every trick in the book to block citing Leeds and Portsmouth as horror stories to justify their actions.We don’t need money, poor little Leicester are really a thing of the past.
If you doubt our financial clout go to Talking Balls and go to the new training ground thread.
There you will see exactly what we are trying to achieve.
Stadium expansion/rebuild plans to follow shortly.

Ok, fair enough I am unclear of FFP rules. We have spent £50m so far and we appear to be happy to spend the same again so perhaps we are fairly certain of £60-£100m in incoming fees to offset this.That’s great but with FFP transfers are benchmarked to turnover, investment in infrastructure is not. Therefore money raised by transfers will help invest hard cash into the team. Why do you think the likes of Chelsea and us sell on lots of players for profit? Not because we are not a rich club but to offset our transfer spend and satisfy FFP.
Is it not more to do with the premiership ffp rules. Making £65 - £75 millon on Mahrez, who you paid peanuts for possibly means you can sign 1 or 2 quality players for someone who wants to move on. Now as a fan you most probably dont want Mahrez to leave, but Leicester and our board will see it as a win for both sides.We don’t need money, poor little Leicester are really a thing of the past.

It’s tied to income and you can only increase wages by a few percent.Its ironic most of the league who voted for it to limit City, will be more limited themselves.Ok, fair enough I am unclear of FFP rules.

I think most sensible (does this exist anywhere) Leicester fans are resigned and have come to terms with him leaving particularly as he has been our (in my opinion) third best player ever for us.Is it not more to do with the premiership ffp rules.

Just in case anyone is inter acted the other two are Kante and Vardy.
I just wish it wasn’t all so protracted and difficult.
I sincerely hope he flourishes under Pep and holds down a place as an ever present, as he won’t thrive being on the bench.
