And so he should.

Far too rational.

Not even the most professional psychic saw this coming..

What’s  going on at Leicester? Only a few days til the new season starts and Kasper has just left, Maddison looks like he’s leaving and Brendan hasn’t brought anyone new in yet. Could get interesting…

I think they'll struggle. Vardy will lose his shit at all the abuse he gets over his stupid missus.

This was from yesterday I saw:

 

Leicester City have faced a "difficult" transfer market this summer, manager Brendan Rodgers says.

The Foxes are yet to make any signings - despite key players being linked with moves - while midfielder James Maddison has been the subject of a second bid from Newcastle.

 

Rodgers said the club have to manage their finances carefully.

"What has changed is my knowledge from a financial perspective," said the manager.

"This club will not look to spend money they don't have and that is where the club is stable and they will always be very sensible."

Supposedly over 200ml in debt and money being pushed to upgrade stadium and training grounds I think. If they lose Fofana,Barnes and Maddison reckon they might go down. They are in real trouble with all the 1st team squad that only have 12 months left on their deals

Chat shit get relegated. Fucking herberts. I had a soft spot for them for years because of Martin O'Neill then winning it under Ranieri but their fans are cunts. Doubt they'll go down or anything but fuck them.

NEW: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is out for a number of months and the club are awaiting news on a scan of an unspecified issue affecting Curtis Jones. #lfc [the athletic]
 

Morton out on loan. 

 

Jurgen said we’d only buy if somebody said they wanted to leave and did (Morton) and/or if there was a major injury (there is).

Surely we need a midfielder now?

Could've at least waited until season starts.  Bet he's busy fucking his Missus. 

[Lee909]

Still don't think we will. 

Elliot,Carvalho and Bajcetic will cover them. 

Jones and Ox only combined for just over 3000 minutes all last year,Morton not many either. 

 

The club will not sign a player just to cover injuries, they'll look at it that Milner,Nabby,Elliot Carvalho,Bajcetic can cover the spot with Hendo,Fabinho and Thiago as starters. Especially as they seem to want to go big on Bellingham or similar next year. If a target becomes available or someone bids they might bite but I doubt it happens this late. 

[Moo]

Bellingham is not happening, it's another "next year" but never happens scenario.

Hang on.....what is wrong with that? Have you seen her? It will only be totally wrong if he was NOT fucking her....

On the basis that the Ox doesn't play when fit I don't see that having any impact. With Jones it depends how serious it is. On the basis that both Jones and Klopp were overruled by the medical department then you would think it isn't that serious.Think Morton was always going on loan.

 

If Jones is ruled out for a good while then you would hope they will move because relying on Naby or Thiago to be available for the majority of games seems extremely optimistic even for Jurgen.

 

Personally though, am struggling to see any further activity whatever. It is perhaps telling that other clubs moving for Chukewemeka or Onana hasn't pushed us into action. That perhaps suggests we have a particular target in mind next summer and are confident of getting him and will muddle through this season.

 

 

 

[HBenn]

Also, it seems a bit odd that the club doctor has moved on, on the eve of the season. Maybe it's  Schlumberger's call in his new role.

Another day, another Matheus Nunes link

Can see City doing that deal if Barca get Silva

[Megadrive Man]

Chelsea in for Cucurella and De Jong.

 

If Chelsea get De Jong after United have spent the whole summer chasing him, it will be incredibly embarrassing for them!

Strange choice of words, we'll be fine.

[Tony Moanero]

Rebecca Adlington wears some shocking dresses. I may need to adjust the brightness on my telly.

[Anubis]

About as much chance of us bidding for Nunes this window as there is of me getting a blowjob from Ana de Armas on the cobbles of Concert Square.

It was if Jones has a bad injury, Thiago and Naby miss their usual number of games and Fabinho misses a bit (which has happened for the last 3 seasons) Having to chop and change a bit is the same as muddling through as I see it. Compared to being able to play a pretty consistent 3-4.

In an ideal world for me it would be Keita out and a new option in. I'm a bit bored with waiting for Keita to happen. It's not going to happen though. Weve spent up.

I think we just have to accept that Keita has happened and Klopp is happy with whatever him happening is. This will also require us to accept that Klopp knows better than us though.

I agree. 
 

What did Klopp say at the end of last season to Milner “You don’t start games because I need you at the end of games” or something. 
 

Completely correct.

 

Some mid-20’s no mark wouldn’t give us what Milner gives.

Same, although if he signs a new contract we will just have to keep waiting!
