Hi Ed002,
Possible to get a summary of potential ins and outs at Leicester this summer?
Thanks.

{Ed002's Note - There is not really enough interest to make it worthwhile - if there are specific questions I will try to answer them.}

Ok thanks Ed002. They've been linked to James Justin was wondering if there was truth in this? Also if there was interest in any attacking players specifically winger/ strikers.

Regarding outgoings are they looking to move on Kelechi and Ghezzal who haven't really impressed.

{Ed002's Note - LC are one of the sides keen on James Justin but there has been no agreement at this time. There is a whole bunch of strikers they have looked at including the likes of Che Adams and Jean-Kevin Augustin as well as a few wingers like Hakan Calhanoglu and Andros Townsend. I don't know of interest in Kelechi Iheanacho or Rachid Ghezzal.}

Hi Eds

Have seen jahankbaksh has been linked to Leicester as mahrez replacement. Any truth in them do you know? Last player i saw mentioned was iago falque. Not sure if he was keen on the move back to England?

Thanks.

{Ed001's Note - the last I heard the Iranian lad was set for a move elsewhere, I forget where now. Falque was a target, I don't have a clue if he is interested in a move back to England or not though.}

No worries thanks Ed001.

{Ed001's Note - welcome mate.}

Hi Ed001 wanted to get your opinion on Soyuncu I saw your comment from a year ago would be interesting to hear what you think a year on?

XabiAlonso14

{Ed001's Note - I am still not convinced by him. He struggles positionally, but he does give his all and is 100% committed. He needs to work on just getting himself in the right place and not needing to run about so much.}


1.) 29 Sep 2020 17:33:56
Thanks Ed001 always good to get your insight.

{Ed001's Note - if he can calm his rashness down and work on his positional sense, he will be an excellent centre-back. He could do with working with someone like Hodgson.}


2.) 29 Sep 2020 21:10:01
I hope he can he showed great character and personality to come back strongly from a difficult first season and has a nice story leaving home at 11 to pursue football then rejecting the big Turkish teams to move to Germany and play for Freiburg. Could you see Klopp looking at him next summer if he makes those improvements? I think he ticks a lot of boxes for our recruitment team.

{Ed001's Note - he plays the same side as Virgil, so probably not just yet.}

Hi Ed001 wanted to ask you about Maddison. Do you believe he can reach the top of the game? And do you think he will be moving this summer or have one more season before he steps up with guaranteed play time before the Euros?

XabiAlonso14

{Ed001's Note - yes he can, but I expect he will stay with Leicester another season. The lad has all the ability needed, just needs to work on his temperament, as he needs a bit more fire in his belly. When he gets roughed up or closely marked, he can become anonymous. Not a problem most of the time in the league, as very few teams actually bother doing either these days, but could be a problem for him at the highest level.}


1.) 24 Mar 2019 09:56:51
Thanks for the reply Ed001. You'd expect that would a problem he'll overcome. I think he's set for a big season next year especially with Rodgers there now.

{Ed001's Note - I remain to be convinced Rodgers is the right man to get the best from him. Or anyone else for that matter. It will start off well, but then they will realise he is just David Brent and has no clue about defenders or defending, which is the bedrock of Leicester's team.}


2.) 24 Mar 2019 11:19:01
Haha I am by no means a fan of Rodgers but expect him to be more attacking than Puel and he seems to have a decent record with younger players but maybe I'm giving him too much credit. I'd expect it to go exactly as you say though but hopefully Maddison can have a good season on a personal level.

{Ed001's Note - I am not sure Puel was as defensive as is made out personally.}
