The hysterically annoying and totally unfounded, but traditional, Summer 2024 rumours thread.

[TommyK]

Got to talk about something on this thread ... Does look we're signing anyone anytime soon

Chilwell isn't a bad player, he's just not an instinctive one. He often appeared tethered by instructions. (Villa LC game at home was particularly frustrating).

[Micky]

Any thoughts on him BN?

 

[alex]

I know little about him actually.

 

[DillyDing22]

Skipp and Winks.

 

[popillius]

Chilwell isn't a bad player, he's just not a good one.

Agreed

Tidy player. He's a more modern style defensive midfielder than Ndidi. His passing is excellent.

One of my (many) concerns about this season is our dependence on Ndidi in front of the defence. Skipp is much more mobile and switched on than the version of Ndidi we've seen over the last few years.

It depends how much he'll cost us too. About £10m is a good deal. I wouldn't be keen if it's £15m+.

David Ornstein:

Leicester City have agreed a deal to sign Oliver Skipp from Tottenham Hotspur on a permanent transfer.

The 23-year-old midfielder is set to undergo a medical today (Sunday) ahead of the proposed move.

The deal is viewed as a good deal all round by the parties involved.

Skipp made 24 appearances in all competitions for Spurs last season but was predominantly used as a substitute by Ange Postecoglou.

 

[City Fan]

It’s a position we need and he has Premier League experience, so I’m Skipping with joy

Maybe we want him to play at left back...

Ange: Skippy 'an option' to play left-back | Tottenham Hotspur

Ange Postecoglou hasn't ruled out starting Oliver Skipp in a left-back role after the midfielder impressed in the position in a cameo off the bench at Liverpool last weekend.

[City Fan]

Hm. That seems like a big fee.

We’re desperate and they know it
