Mick Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Wouldn't worry about next season too much just make sure we are good enough for this season first. Plus the money if we do get promoted plus Rafa in charge and our status as a club will allow us to sign quality if we get promoted I'm sure we'll get the money at the end of the season if we do go back up so at least the first season will be tough if we buy players now who are not good enough to step up. That's one of the reasons I'm against selling all of our better players now and replacing them with more but lesser players if that's what we end up doing.

Guest Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 We'll get him. Might take a week or two but there'll be no doubt he'd be very keen to come, will probably play out similar to the Hanley transfer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Don't think I've seen him play but in my mind he's already a cross between Ben Arfa and Mahrez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Crooks Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Knockeart will be brill and will actually fit the stupid cabaye chant that was for knock heart in the first place. There's a video of two goals he scored for Leicester in one game and they were Robert esque Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alberto2005 Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Knockeart would be great. Poor mans Ben Arfa but would kill this league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the reasons I'm against selling all of our better players now and replacing them with more but lesser players if that's what we end up doing. I agree Mick, but the thing I fear the most is that once we get back into the PL, Ashley will once again start interfering(via Charnley)in Rafa's transfer targets - partly on the grounds of the fees they would inevitably cost to improve the side, but especially on the wage demands that top players will ask for. I too have some doubts as to how some of the signings will perform if we reach the PL but as some of them are still quite young it IS possible that Rafa will be able to improve/get the best out of them. Imperative, though, that we make an instant return this season - failure to do so could have serious repercussions for us as a club in future so there will be enormous pressure on everyone at the club to do the business. As I have already said on other threads, I do not think this season will be any cake-walk and we need to be up for it every game...there will inevitably be injuries and suspensions too - we could well have done without Mitrovic being out for 4 games because we will lack physical presence up front.

Sho Time Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Knockaert is class, still a bit raw to a certain extent but he has insane skill and does have a good footballing brain. I reckon our fans would love him and at the prices players are going for these days he's well worth a punt for £8-10m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 He just lacks a little pace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Against the duffers in the Championship he's looked like Usain Bolt - obviously a totally different ball game in the Premiership though but I think he'd still do well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 I think he's mint personally. Got a lot of Leicester games before they were cool and he looked definitely a cut above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been replying to a few fans on twitter who've been asking him if there'll be any transfer news/business today. He is doing it in his 'i'm better than you because you've came to me for news' arrogant way so you can never be too sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
