Now Leicester have unsettled him I expect they'll come back with a lower offer!
If it worked like that, all clubs would do that for every deal.

As I understand it, they were still negotiating personal terms this afternoon, with the figure i heard being 37K per week. Seems that the Albion weren't the only people to take LCFC to the cleaners. Get in there Leo :thumbsup:

Does anyone else feel like we've just pulled off a heist?

Hope he does well, not looking forward to playing against him in the future
Why's that.

We've not shafted Leicester with some crooked no-mark.

If they are confident they can deliever goal scoring passes:-
Ulloa WILL score.

If Ulloa scores and Leicester are capable of keeping clean sheets against 6 average teams:-
Leicester WILL stay in the Premier League.

If Leicester stay up because of Ulloa's goals:-
£10m (as it will be then) will mean they got Leo for next to nothing.


Fantastic deal all round.
Goalscorers aren't cheap.

What a great deal. Odd saying that but it really gives us something to play with now in the transfer market

^ This. We've just lost yet another important asset that was a big influence in our so called goal of reaching premier league football!.
Now I'm not so sure!..

All I've seen in the last 2 seasons is a gradual departure of proven quality leave our squad!..

Holy moly. Another Portsmouth waiting to happen then, crazy 'rich' chairman who boasts about his money then bails when they get relegated. Possibly.

Not quite what I said.

'Every player has a price'.

Let's wait and see who (if anyone) the cash brings in before writing the team/season/club off, in July.

That last minute winner at Forest will live with me for ever, that moment was so special
So glad I was there to see it
Loved the celebration from Leo, good luck and thanks for the memory

Congrats to whoever was responsible for identifying him and signing him. Would be interesting to know exactly who that was, bearing in mind the outlay was not insignificant. Are there any more out there?

He only needs to score 10-15 goals during the course of the season for his value to double in the Prem.

Gone on then. Bridcutt aside, who are these players of proven quality, from 2 years ago, who have departed?

Bearing in mind that Orlandi, Kusczcak, Upson, Bridge and Leo were not with us at this time.

Imagine the damage he can do with teammates in the same half of the pitch.

Lets not forget this defensive abilities too.

The story of Leo and how he developed his carrier with BHA, scored goals, was a hero with the fans and we didn't stand in his way when the chance of the Premier League came along ( with £37k pw wages) should be one that we use with our CF targets across Europe. The key to this being a good deal for us is if we can get an adequate replacement. We must have known he was likely to go for quite some time now and therefore David Burke should have been doing his research. Now time for him to deliver. Replace with a similar standard for £2-4m and what a great deal it will have been.
