Leicester supporting friend wasn't too complimentary about him, first touch is absolute rotten although I thought he looked decent for them 1st half of last season. :undecided:

Striker is Slimani according to the Mirror.

Would take.

Barely seen any of him so won't make a judgement. Does he play often for Leicester? Is his scoring record any good?

Hardly played for Leicester but had a good record before.

Hmm. Would prefer some of the other names mentioned but I'd have him. At least it's a striker more able than our current ones.

 

Can't wait to hear vs Burnley if we get him everyone to go mental at him after his first poor touch. Hounded out immediately. Soft forrin. Brexit means Brexit.

I mean, he's not even trying. His first name is Islam.

Algerian isn’t he?

Still forrin. Hound him out.

I’ve always quite liked the look of Slimani. Got in some great areas and had some tidy finishes early on for Leicester.

 

Looks a bit heavy, mind. Would prefer someone a bit more pacey and mobile. Is his style hugely different to Mitrovic?

 

Beggars can’t be choosers and I doubt we even get anyone in. So if it is true. I hope we pay what they’re asking. I think we’re going down without a 2 more decent additions this window.

Was first rate at Sporting Lisbon. His replacement Bas Dost is following in his footsteps.

He surprised me how quick he was in one goal he scored this season, think it was when Leicester played at home to Huddersfield? Ran onto to a ball played in behind, didn't look slow at all.

Yeah. I remember the one you mean. Wasn’t he miles clear after timing his run, though?

 

He just doesn’t strike me as the most agile and think he could be frustrating as fuck as a lone striker. Still, all of ours are currently. So what’s new :lol:

Think it might be a better version of Mitro, slightly quicker, slightly better finisher and not a bell end on the pitch. Will actually follow instructions and not do stupid, pointless shite that can led to red cards and retrospective punishments.

 

If Rafa wants him, I'll get behind it.

It's not happening. It's all a load of shite to keep you occupied and distracted.

 

Agreed. I said as much in my original post. Just looking at all these pipe dream players and weighing them up FM style, though. Pointless exercise, really.

Imagine the pressure this imaginary player would be under to be shit hot, after everything we've been through with Ashley. :lol:

 

Think I mentioned this the last time that was said...but wouldn't a pro relish that kind of challenge/have such an ego it wouldn't phase them? Suppose it depends on the character...but we definitely don't want/need a self-doubting softie.

 

Nah the player wouldn't give a fuck, I just mean us lot and Rafa would be sweating a bit. If it doesn't work, we'll be back to taking punts on £5m strikers.

The fact that we even signed a £5m striker in the summer is just so utterly tragic man :lol:
