Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2021 rumours thread

[Miles Away]

He's wank.

I'm not entirely convinced by him, but I'd ****ing snap your hand off to have him in our squad today.

Or anyone with two working legs

Or anyone with two working legs

A tennis player perhaps?

That Serena Williams has got some legs on her.

 

[camberwell fox]

That Serena Williams has got some legs on her.

Some. Two is factual.

Unless this is a Tarzan sketch?

 

[homer]

Some. Two is factual.

Unless this is a Tarzan sketch?

I’ve never quite been convinced that she isn’t hiding a third leg in there somewhere

 

[mabrah]

She is built like the proverbial brick shithouse, and I say that not as any form of ism. A real powerhouse of an athlete, she batters opponents in a most fearsome manner. A defensive midfield role beckons.

It's well understood that for elite tennis players, better conditioning and massive leaps in racket design and materials have given the super-talented five or more years extra life at the top. Serena, goddess that she is, has pushed this a bit too far, and barely moves on court, relying on brute power, years of experience and cunning, and intimidation - a fast diminishing resource for her over the last couple of years.

Rather than draft her in, I'd suggest giving Wes Morgan a big tennis racket and see if it extends his life, or shortens his opponents'.

Have Serena or big Wes ever been seen together...

 

[Micky]

Have Serena or big Wes ever been seen together...

Only on a tennis court in a doubles match. Mind you, they both got injured. Pulled groins apparently.

 

[mabrah]

Love 15? Nah, but quite fancied 13.

 

[Skitzo]

It’s in the Sun so take it for what it’s worth but they say we are after Ivan Toney for around £25m

 

[lesterboy]

Leicester close in on £15m deal for Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard

EXCLUSIVE: Odsonne Edouard will have 12 months left on his contract this summer and that, as well as a sell-on fee of around 40 per cent owed to PSG, has driven down the price.

[Skitzo]

If he’s available for just £15m that’s a bargain

 

[Blue Maniac]

What an odd use of the word ‘exclusive’

 

[Micky]

According to the bookies we are Odsonne to sign him.

 

[tedfoxxx]

SOUND THE SWOOP ALARM!

Engage warchests, target ace.... and swoop!

 

[mabrah]

Well I guess £15M is near chump change these days. I just hope we don't get a chump.

But this is just gossip in the Mail, no? And there's been gossip about our links with him for some time now, so I 'm not reading it as a done deal, "closing in" or no.

"Closing in" could very easily mean "sent him a gift basket of Thorntons". There's nothing substantiated in there.
