Yes. Yes I do.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Ulloa wants out?
- Thread starter The Oldman
- Start date
Yes. Yes I do.
I want that bet!
You don't seem to have made any allowance for the Player himself, who perhaps, may become very unhappy if he doesn't get his move, if he's desperate to play in the premier league.
Would you like an unhappy player playing for us?
Barnes wont even play 10 games in the Prem league next year IMO.

OK. Needs to be based on average goals per game tho to level the playing field. Ulloa might get 30 starts, Barnes might get half that number. I'm confident who will have the higher goals to games played ratio tho.
You've moved the goal posts!

Depends if he continues progressing and finding the net. IMHO Ulloa is too easily neutralised for a player of his size. We shall see. Interesting times.

There wer enumerous games Barnes could have played last year for burnley but he was on the bench. Cant see him now being favoured with the step up to the prem.

But this article quotes the Mirror as it's source and is therefore just a rehash of the original unsubstantiated speculation.
Whilst I am sure that Leo wants to play in the Prem, whether he is pressing the point with Sami today as is reported is decidedly suspect, given that he supposedly also did so before he left the country!
More Mirror b*llshit - which may or may not be true, but only by luck not by good journalism.
I don't believe he is unhappy, I believe it's a nothing story from a bored journalist.
If I hear he's unhappy through an official(ish) channel, ala Bridcutt then that would change things. As things stand I don't need to make any allowances,
We are all talking hypothetically here and I haven't the first clue if Leo is unhappy or not, I haven't claimed to either.
I am just working through a possible scenario which could very well happen assuming we hold out for top dollar.

I'm up for that, although don't think we'll be needing a calculator and it might not happen at all.
So if they're on the pitch for however many minutes, that counts as one game, and it's a goals-appearances ratio.
Not living in Preston Park, I'm not flush with cash, but how about £20?
And, finally, can you indicate:
-- a replacement 'ideal type' (i.e. what key attributes we'll need in a striker)
-- a few names

The journalist has an impeccable source for the information he published. He let slip on Twitter that he phoned the Ulloa household from Brazil (where he's covering the world cup) and -spoke to Ulloa's cats. Apparently he does it all the time. I'm led to believe that there were other titbits of information regarding Mrs Ulloa that the Mirror weren't able to publish
Just a question of when?

I can't say I blame him wanting a move. I don't think we should stand in his way either.
I think getting a replacement will be insurmountable. Good move for Leicester and Ulloa. Bad for the Albion.

Yes and Yes. I'm not particularly flush with cash either, especially after Brighton Races this afternoon, but happy to wager £20 with you on the terms above. As you say, it might not happen at all. But if it does...
No and No. Nobody's indispensable. We go again.

Why the biggie?
After he came back from his injury, he shirked every tackle, missed every header and rolled around the floor a lot. He never had pace. We could buy 2 better forwards for £3.5 each (Grabban cost less for example)

So why didn't we when we signed CMS? Grabban only went for £3 million because he had a clause in his contract. If Ulloa wants to leave and we get an acceptable offer, we should let him go but don't underestimate how hard it will be to sign a replacement.
