Speculation Motown's hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded Summer 2017 rumours thread

[Skitzo]

He was directly asked about his future here in relation to the rumours about him leaving

He was directly asked about his future here in relation to the rumours about him leaving

His comments were basically a "come and get me" plea to Man Utd.

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

... or, I have no plans to leave, but I cannot stop the club from accepting an outrageously large bid from a club such as Manure, and asking me if I would like to talk to them?

 

[SilverFox]

Ture

 

[TommyK]

Sky reporting Roma have came back with a 27million bid for Mehrez

Definitely sell him for that - we can play Mahrez in his place instead

Lol

First thought was that this was something Mahrez had said, and that would have been just fine. A bit more worrying when it comes from Kasper. Maybe just a typical straight answer from him, but still....

""I'm a Leicester player until someone tells me otherwise. Until then I'm fully committed to this club."

Sounds like a straight answer to me. Chill out Blaarev!

Some sensible sounding answers in there.

Everton are apparently interested in Slimani if they can't sign Giroud.

Sell IMO

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

Yes, all he does is score goals with his head, FFS!

Doesn't track back or defend. Waste of space!

 

[Miles Away]

With the exception of Vardy he's the only one I trust will scores goals if played regularly.

Wouldn't sell him.

 

[londonfox]

Selling Slimani would be utter stupidity

 

[Lako42]

I genuinely don't get the hate for Slimani.

Scores when played properly, works his bollocks off.

Strange

 

[Mike - True Blue Tinter]

When we bought Vardy and Mahrez for less than £2million, some people probably expect that £35million gets you an amazing player!

 

[big_mac4824]

no just think we can recruit better and we paid far too much for him, that is my opinion!

It's not hate really though is it? It's exasperation born out of frustration I think (at least for me, anyway). Yes, he works hard but not smart. He charges around the pitch like a bull whilst his brain is often in neutral and gives away countless fouls. It's sometimes akin to watching young children play football where they all chase the ball like wasps with no real idea of where they should be at any given moment.

He scores goals sometimes, this is correct but only really one dimensionally. Defenders know that if they can nullify head height crosses, Slimani probably won't offer anything else. There could be a very good footballer there somewhere and with time we may see it but all evidence thus far suggests that he isn't a very bright one.

It's not a case of expecting the world for £35m but if we'd seen him play last season for a different Premier League club, like the way he has played for us so far, there would be apocalyptic outrage if we were offering anything more than about £10m never mind 30 odd.
