Baker is a midfielder who doesn't fit our style of play. Campbell's goal contribution per minute played will compare quite favourably with all other strikers we've had in the championship but that doesn't suit your argument. His record or a midfielder with a better strike rate doesn't suit your argument you mean. The fact you have to go back to MON days re Campbell says it all 👍 MON days?? He played 41 times scored 9 assisted 5 under MON/AN the season before last it's hardly ancient history. 5 of those games were under MON how many/whether he scored or assisted many/any in those 5 games I don't remember but I'm pretty confident the vast majority were under AN. |

I don’t think that a few quid here or there is necessarily going to swing it either way in a deal like this. Think the player will have a bigger say, especially on a permanent deal Don't be silly. If we're offering more than one of the others Leicester won't allow him to negotiate with another club unless they match our offer. What do you think they are a charity? Let’s say they want 7m and we offer 7.2, everyone else offers 6.9. If he doesn’t want to come to us they cannot force him to come to us. He will go to whoever he wants to, or to no one at all. |

Correct - Players decide themselves where they go. They can just reject a move and demand to go elsewhere. Look at Mbappe. He wanted to go Madrid and called the shots |

I don't believe their hand would be forced despite the fucked up world in which football and it's fans exist £300,000 is not a trivial amount of money. They will Simply tell the club he wants to go to that Stoke have offered £7.2M and it's upto them if they want to match it and him and his agent would have to accept that as perfectly fair and reasonable. I'm sure if you removed £300,000 from a deal in their favour they'd have plenty to say about it. |

And then he would have to decide. Like I said, the decision would be his. And, if it was only stoke who had their offer accepted, the player would still only come if he wanted to. |

No doubt you can't and shouldn't be able to make a player go somewhere he doesn't want to but I'm pretty sure they'd just say match the offer or he can negotiate with Stoke or stay here and rot. |

So, going back to my original point, you seem to be now agreeing with me! The point being that it doesn’t matter if we offer more, the player will decide |

The point being that it doesn’t matter if we offer more, the player will decide The player can decide on whether he signs for a club or not, has that ever been any different. Your initial suggestion is if one club offered a significantly higher fee than a club he wanted to join Leicester would just cave in and let him do whatever he wanted to do. I doubt they'd do that it would be a terrible precedent for them to set with their players. |

I said “a few quid”, you’ve translated that to “a significantly higher fee” As I said £300,000 is a significant amount of money, the amount was your choice. It probably pays upto 10 employees for a year. Football has twisted peoples minds to a point where they actually believe it's an insignificant amount. |

I think he would have come if it was a loan. We've missed him as a permanent 100% |

On balance feel happy with Al-Hamadi being the target we're after if we can get him on a perm, similar young age, probably a bit more physical and pacey |

Not sure we need this fella, not played much football as he?
Cooper does not want him.
A loan deal might have been OK.
I think we should push on with Tegzel , Koumas etc. and look at it in January if we need to.

Luton Town and Hull City have joined Sunderland in making bids for Leicester City’s Tom Cannon.
The Hatters followed up an initial interest by tabling an offer of around £6 million which tops their rivals.
Hull have also made an official move while Sunderland are in but may not increase their offer.
Foxes are hoping for a bid up to £10 million but may have to take less.
Sheffield United and Stoke City are also keen but both are only currently talking about loan to possibly buy arrangements.
Burnley could make a late move if they sell Lyle Foster before the window shuts.

Some will say we gotta take a punt on these players who have excelled in the lower leagues..we tried with junior who was the best young full back in the lower league now some don't want him anywhere near the team again |

All going well we’ll have bought cannon and loaned Al hamadi. Trying for a striker from abroad too if one doesn’t work out. |
