European football may sway this one

He’s an excellent talent from the Champo (PL) - if he’s been cross-haired let’s hope we can sort the deal.

We don't have any space for him in our Europa squad. Assuming we may want to add Barco.

He'll be joining to make an immediate contribution. No chance is Barco getting picked ahead of him.

We can add 3 players. If he joins then one of Enciso, Moder, Barco and KDH wouldn’t be able to play in Europe. We’d have to drop 2 players from the squad to add 3 as well. Dahoud seems an obvious choice but who would be the 2nd player to leave out?

March I’d assume will be getting dropped

None of those players would be eligible to replace March in the squad as he’s a club trained player and there are 4 slots, in the 25 man squad, reserved for them.

As much as I can understand our interest, I can't see this happening. Leicester City have a quality player and need to make sure they arrive upstairs at the end of the season.
Unless Albion pay well over the odds, the legs on this will fall off. Even then, Leicester need to be certain of their replacement.
The more I think about it the less likely I think it is.

Well then I don’t know who’ll be replaced
It’s clear that we only have a chance because of FFP/PRS. Let’s see if they need to sell by Wednesday.
Personally, I think we’ve turned the lad’s head.
There is a flock of seagulls circling above a poorly Fox, waiting for it to drop and give up it’s riches (the adjacent swarm of bees can do one).

Enjoying how much this bid has wound up Leicester fans who can't get their heads around the new order of club hierarchy, nor an acceptance that they have lost their place in the food chain
as an aside, as much as the kid is playing well this season, I have a sneaky feeling he is one of these players that is too good for the Championship but doesn't really move the needle at Prem level
if we were buying from the Championship I'd much rather gamble on Adam Wharton (if only to annoy Palace)

Yes, a decade ago Leicester came and took Ulloa away, before winning the Premier League two years later.
How times change.
Tend to agree - definitely feels like a ‘no smoke without fire’ rumour.

Leicester are under some pressure to sell because of FFP, I think the Leicester board will want this to happen. I think he will leave and we seem to be in pole position.

I remember our successful and highly regarded manager leaving us for the assistant job there. That was a depressing way to be put in our (then) place.
It’s only two or three years ago that they thought they would be able to take Potter, Bissouma and Dunk from us at various times.

Is it just me? Has anyone noticed in the last 3 short outings or so, that Adam Lallana no longer runs normally anymore? He now sort of straight leg glides, almost like a type of training warm-up stride. It honestly looks like he can’t run anymore for fear of doing terminal physiological damage. it is so strange to watch. I’m sure he’s been doing accelerated coaching badges, so I think we are very very close to seeing his absolute last outing. Yes he still has a rapid brain and great ball skills, but it is so odd to see a player glide running like that at the highest level.
