The fee would likely be over 20m so I doubt it’s a loan out job. 

 

We are not that team anymore, 20m would be spent on youngsters nowadays. we are academy focused now dont forget :)

Where we are in the table come January is going to have a such a big influence on who (if any) we bring in.

 

Also, Maddison going to the World Cup I think would maybe scupper any chances we have of signing him, assuming he plays and does well ofcourse. If he does go and do well I think he ends up at a club already in Champions League.

This is panning out like my favourite FM save. Buy up the best young prospects for reasonable fees and have them grow together into £100m players.

 

In my case it was Tielemans, Rotariu, Jovic (plus others). Bonus point to anyone who can guess which edition that was...

Imagine going to Jan in the top 7 and signing Diaby or Maddison :lol: 

 

Why not both? :lol:

 

Just a bit greedy I guess. :lol: But even going back to Ashley we signed Cisse when 7th and it kicked us on to having a chance of finishing in the top 4 on the final day. Being in touch of Europe will certainly would help our chances of signing quality in January.

I think we will be reluctant to do business in January unless a deal really works. 

 

I just can't see Leicester budging on the Maddison situation. I understand his contract is running down but it didn't stop them from keeping a hold of Tielemans.

 

Also, given how utterly shite they are, can they really afford to lose Maddison in January? They'd almost certainly get relegated IMO.

 

Diaby is a different one. I suspect Leverkusen are much more accepting to the fact they have to keep selling to keep finances coming in. In Germany, only Bayern can afford not to sell.

 

I'm still not convinced we will sign either of them in January. Its much more probable that we will look to South America or even go back in for Joao Pedro.

 

Next summer we will certainly go big on 3/4 Botman/Isak types.

I doubt Leicester are happy with the Tielemans situation and I would be suprised if they were happy for it to happen again.

 

Also they were short of money in the summer, yes they sold Fofana however Maddison is probably their most valuable player so I can’t see them keeping him to lose him for free. 
 

If he wants to leave and has no intention of signing a new deal then selling him becomes their only option imo.

Also them sinking like a stone to the lower regions of the table will make it even harder to keep their best players. No decent player in their right minds wants to play for a self-aggrandising tit like Rodgers. His teams always fade after initially looking very good.

If we could get Maddison early enough it could work for them getting replacements in for the championship.

The key thing is the wage structure is starting to be pushed upward now, Wilson’s new contract is good indicator of this. Will open up more options for us next summer, still don’t expect anyone coming in on 200k a week though, the mid 100s will probably be the upper limit for now.

Looks like at the moment £120kpw is the ceiling and this will gradually increase as the squad improves and players under contract prove their worth over a decent period of time.
