Tielemans is the one I keep coming back to. It just makes too much sense all around. Realistically, Leicester have to let him go. 

 

Wont happen until late on though.

Aye, think they're going to blink in the final few days of the window. Only thing that worries me is that it also invites bids from Arsenal/top teams in Europe.

I don’t understand this approach (if true)

I think all the journalists these days are given very little or are given information about FFP and not much to spend etc. 

 

We're very very hush hush on transfers these days.

I’m probably 90% sure I’m wrong about this opinion but I think Tielemans is shite. The occasional worldie doesn’t forgive the amount of times I see players running past him. He’s peaked already in my opinion. 
 

Gut feeling is he’d be a bad signing for us.

What would Tielemans be willing to accept for salary? He is £120,000/week the same as Bruno and Isak.  Also, why are we paying Targett £100,000 to sit on the bench?

Targett is injured. Has been since before the World Cup. Likely to be out for another month apparently.

I’m not convinced either

Tielemans is fine. He's a good player and everything, but adding goals to the team has to be the priority and Tielemans + a back up right back ain't it. I'd welcome him, but as long as we have Bruno, I feel it could wait until the summer.

Finally someone tells the truth.

I remember everyone being jealous of Leicester when they signed Tielemans like. And he looked absolutely class. I suppose it depends on how your team's set up, but I've definitely noticed players breezing past him as well mind, not just when Willock did it. 

 

I know it's more miles on the clock than a player's age, but 25 strikes me as far too young to be past it like, even if he'd started at 16.

People have learnt his limitations. And it’s been amplified. 
 

I made a comment about his athleticism years ago and most disagreed. Now that’s almost the first thing people talk about regarding him. I don’t think much has changed in his game since then just people’s perception.

Exactly the reason why he doesn't fit into Howe's system and why I'm pretty confident we won't be in for him.

He's more mobile than Shelvey and we did fine with him in the side. We've got enough runners and legs in the side as it is we need some actual quality on the ball. Obviously it would be great if we could find a player that has both but they aren't easy to come by. 

 

Tielemans Bruno and Joe is a pretty well balanced midfield. I don't think everyone we sign has to be a pressing machine. We wouldn't need to press as much if we could keep a hold of the ball a bit better too.
