I seem to remember this lad doing quite well at one stage when they first got promoted.

 

[TommyK]

Not terrible. Not not exactly exciting either.

At the end of the day we’re massively light on players and haven’t got a pot to piss in, hence need to shop in the free agent market. Needs must.

Leicester City are reportedly close to bringing in Bobby De Cordova-Reid as they ramp up their transfer business in the wake of Steve Cooper's appointment as manager.
Abdul Fatawu’s £14m permanent switch from Sporting Lisbon is due to be confirmed, while City have also agreed a £5m deal with Chelsea for teenage midfielder Michael Golding. On Thursday, there were widespread reports in Italy that centre-back Caleb Okoli would be joining from Atalanta for around £13m.

Quite like that flurry of business.

Okoli very highly rated.

Who needs official news? We have all we need right here! I am liking these rumours of players coming in though...

Like «we are trying to buy ‘’insert name’’ but they are being difficult about the asking price»?

Do you mean, like this? Leicester City Football Club can today confirm the signing of Jamaica international winger Bobby De Cordova-Reid, subject to league approval.

I don’t understand your expectation on this. Are you saying you think the club should announce their transfer targets and name individuals?

Obviously not, they should be commenting and making public statements on every player linked with us on Twitter.

Remember when we announced that we'd signed Jason Mcateer?

Does he refer to himself in the third person in the quote? Mickey Adams likes it when Mickey Adams refers to himself in the third person.
