Think people are just playing chicken with Leicester on price?

Are Leicester in a position to play chicken 

 

Every club should just let it ride out 

 

see if their arse drops on deadline day 

 

if they need to sell , they need to sell 

 

if not , let the players run down their contracts and let Leicester suffer needing the money

Someone is going to get a bargain in Tyrone Mings. Before you all start booting off, I'm not saying he's a great player but he is a good player and I'd bet my left bollock that Gerrard is trying to get him out of the door.

 

He will end up at Fulham or Brentford or somewhere and put in better performances than any of the other Villa defenders under Gerrard.

Big opportunity for Burn.

I was think about this the other day, as Stones is the guaranteed starter, but for the other position there is not really anyone else who is on form other then Burn.

 

Coady, Tarkowski, Maguire, Mings, White, Jones, are all either massively out of form, or permacrocks.

Maguire for England is still usually the same player that's made him a guaranteed starter when I've seen him. Not sure how long he'll be 2 different players for club and country though

We expect Burn to keep Botman out of the side for much longer? I thought he was excellent at the beginning of his time here and then towards the end he started feeling like the weakest link in the backline so was very happy we signed Botman. That being said he was excellent at the weekend and if he keeps performing like that Botman will have trouble to break into the team .

I wonder how much of a say Cooper is having in some of these transfers, it seems like such a scatter gun approach. I can't see them playing 2 up top and then having Lingard & Johnson in the side as well, so that makes one of Dennis & Awoniyi an expensive bench warmer.

Assumed that they're normally a wing back team given how they started on Saturday.

If they are going to continue with wing back system I don't know. Seems a waste for a newly promoted team to have such a talented front line and opting for a system where they cannot use all of them when fit.

It's odd that no one has gone in for Tielemans yet. I wonder if he's indicated that he'll run down his contract.

 

Seems such an obvious signing for Man Utd at great value, but instead they've gone for Rabiot and that overbearing mother of his.

Yep, it's a game of opinions, and I know many don't rate him at all but I've watched Mings live quite a few times and he can be superb.

 

If we needed another body at CB (we don't) I'd be very very happy to add him to the mix along with Burn, Botman and Schar.

Solid midtable PL CB.

 

Better than Dan Burn imo.

 

He's done well to have a very good career. 17 England caps. Former Aston Villa captain. Bournemouth was meant to be his big break and that was a terrible period for him with those injuries, he's done superbly to bounce back stronger. Weaker characters would've fallen back down the football pyramid. If he had those extra 4 years in experience he might be worth all this noise.
