SSN saying £6m bid for Ulloa today. Havent we already turned down £7m?

[fat old seagull]

Not unhappy with keeping Leo, but if it gets to 7 mill (cash) I think we should take it, to spend wisely. But not waste putting average loaners arses on the bench.

 

[mwrpoole]

John Percy from The Telegraph has tweeted that Leicester are preparing to make final bid of £7.5m. He is usually very accurate.....

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Was Chris Wood really that much worse than Leo last season or are people making up rubbish about 5/6M and a better player who's younger for a great player?

 

[albionalex]

I'd rather £7.5 million than £6 million and Chris Wood.

Would bite both hands off for that.

It'd be very exciting to see who Sami might buy with that sort of cash to spend.

And this is why we need Zamora. If the fee gets higher we'll need to accept it and ensure we have power up front

Zamora is finished would play 10 games at max

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

Wood won't come back to the Championship.....most of all to us !!

Take 7million and go for Deeney or Rhodes

Rhodes has just signed an extension with Blackburn. They are going to be a force next season after a few unsettled years.

#lcfc set to make final £7.5m bid for Leonardo Ulloa & offer Jamie Vardy new contract via [MENTION=4416]Tel[/MENTION]egraph http://fw.to/K1W1uae

The Telegraph is reporting it to be £7.5m.

Be very surprised if we didn't accept that, as the club has said there is no need to sell, I would expect, naively perhaps, that all that would be reinvested in the squad. Would be sorry to see him go, but every player has their price and he deserves a chance in the top flight. Would go with my best wishes.

 

[Lifelong Supporter]

It sounds a lot of money but the club will be aware from negotiations elsewhere of who we could actually buy with those monies and what their wage demands would be. I think we might be disappointed, hence I hope we do not sell. Ulloa is proven, would his replacement be ? I doubt it.

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

Can't wait to see Leo sitting on his arse moaning after a Premiership centre back has looked at him in a threatening way

 

[gripper stebson]

Oddly I fear not selling Leo may be worse for our season as he can be prone to a sulk... and this could bring on the mother of all sulks!

What makes you think he'd be given it to spend? Any more than Oscar was given any of the Bridcutt or Barnes money and we ended up lacking any experienced cover in the mauling at Derby. I am happy to be proved wrong but I get the impression that we will not be spending big whatever happens with Ulloa.

 

[Don Tmatter]

All very well taking the £7.5 million but if wage structure in place of £10k approx a wk max, quality replacement going to be hard to find.

Proven goalscorers at top Championship level, of which they are not many, will be out of our price range. The players are the key to the Premiership millions and are just not available. I would though love to be proved wrong.

 

[Lethargic]

Normally I would be more than happy to sell for 7 million but the fact McCormack went for 10 million I would hold out for at least 8 mill. The valuation of footballers is complete bullshite and if LCFC really want him then they will raise their bid.
I just hope we have a replacement lined up and don't have to wait another 2 years to get someone in.

It wouldn't have mattered how much Oscar was given as his list of players were all unavailable for one reason or another.

So Bloom says....he was never going to say "we misled Oscar about the budget"

Not suggesting he did but if you swallow the everything was Oscar's fault line re player recruitment, more fool you IMO

So you are implying that Bloom was lying?
