So so happy. More than you believe. Happy new year


That really was an odd interview wasn't it? I Love how weird he is in those and press conferences.

Look at his eyes through the whole interview, and particularly when the journo says "you don't seem very happy, Pep". I'd be frightened. It's like Hannibal Lecter or something.
"Fly away, tv journo. Fly, fly, fly…"

That’ll be because Leicester forum (on this subject) talking balls has only reached 50 pages recently - at least the name is right!

Be fair mate, we’ve all been there. Never stopped crying for months after Jamie Pollock left us in the lurch & fkd of to Crystal Palace, back in 2000

I'm a Leicester fan too but I've come to term with the fact that he wouldn't play for us next season. I belong to the majority of the fans who have a more or less realistic view about the transfer fee (around 60M + add-ons) given that the player wants to move and there are no other bidding clubs. It still is bargain by the current market prices.

I don't go that often on Talking Balls but there are some on Foxestalk who're considering him as a scheming Judas and/or hell bent on sending him to the reserves if necessary, and not selling him under anything less than +85M because "that'll fucking show them and we're no small club". Ignoring the fact that we would still have to pay his wages, his value would depreciate in the meanwhile and he'd go for free in two years. Let alone the toxic atmosphere in the dressing room and the poor club image it would give for any talented player willling to come. They belong to a very small minority though.

Most of us wish him well and are eager to see what he can do in a team like yours, but it will be a make or break season for him.

You sound a bit bitter, mate.

And twisted, never forget the twisted.

Great Post. Balanced and realistic. Nice one.

All the best for the coming season mate, particularly in that first game, I’ve no beef with your fans at all

Sorry to put a downer on this one but if I've learnt something about our transfers over he years, it is that in every transfer window, after every valley there's usually a mountain and after every mountain there's usually a valley. Not getting my hopes up for now.
