Just saw a few posters saying they would never sell him on the previous couple of pages. As with our own club, no one knows anything until a deal is done.

Nobody wants him though. He might have to run the contract down. Leicester don't want that either. Arsenal would've been a decent move but they wanted positional flexibility.

LV Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 So Leicester need to sell before they can buy, fair enough. But they also don’t need to sell. Why sell Barnes to then have to go out and replace him with someone at least as good? They could just keep him. Its not like the market is awash with available and quality wide men, as we’ve found out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDT Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 All very quiet from the local journos on us, expect Edwards to back to his positive self on Monday after he's finished with the Euros. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been this way since Ashworth came in. Hopefully a good sign he has tightened the ship in terms of negotiation leaks. Either that or the lad is on a massive skive.

McCormick Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) @LV Yep, Leicester actually need another wing-option and Barnes is one of those players who’s contract isn’t in it’s last year. Would take a huge offer for them to even think about selling. Edited July 28, 2022 by McCormick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might be happy with that position and have enough in the squad to fill it without Barnes and might want to buy for elsewhere on the pitch where they feel they are lacking quality?

He must have, him and Bruno have bough a semi detached house next to each other and built a hatch in the living room so they can alternate who makes the tea.

Which I also think puts us in a good position for the season ahead. Not as flashy as some people may like, but I would say it makes a top half finish achievable. Obviously would prefer Barnes to Harrison, but I just can't see us being willing to part with the £50m+ it would take. Don't think we will break the £50m on one player barrier till next Summer.

Would be quite underwhelming but we just won’t or can’t pay what clubs are wanting for better. I was hoping for more bruno standard of players but guess just see what happens. The market is ridiculous when we are getting quoted £30m-£35m for average premier league players Edited July 28, 2022 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I think we needed to move earlier in the window for Harrison. Leeds don’t need the money now and will have less time for a replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Chris Waugh is definetly in the dark transfer wise. His PotT updates were: We're interested in Sesko but so are half of Europe. Draxler unlikely, but Warner possible on loan. Players will become available as squads are trimmed. Ritchie and a keeper will likely leave minimum. Real cutting edge stuff. Not much from Hope these days either, only Edwards is churning out the "exclusives" and his source is probably still Steve Bruce. Thirsty times.
