EFC-Paul Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 If it's for Niasse in exchange then I'm all for it, I'm not to arsed about the money it won't be ridiculous and it isn'tt mine.... Adds pace and goals and has that edge to his game where he won't tuck his cock between his legs and bow down to Klopp and co, still has a few good years in him imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Looking at a few Leceister City forums and none of the people on there see this happening. There is talk of him going to Chelsea as they are looking for a striker. Apparently he wants Champions League football, I hope we are being used in an attempt to force Chelsea to bid for him. I hope - is there a praying Emoji? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Niasse, DCL, Walcott, Cenk. We have 4. This would make 5.It’s looking like Niasse will go this window, Walcott is not a CF and we can’t rely on DCL to get us goals if Cenk either gets injured or takes time to adapt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 We have DCL, Cenk, and niasse as strikers. Rooney isn'tt a striker now, neither is walcott. He is a wide player as he confirmed to allardyce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCL needs to get game time, and with Cenk and Walcott those 3 are enough for us. Why spend money, lots of money on a guy who relies on speed and is 31 years old, and his pace will be dropping off? markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we sign Vardy it means that we play 2 up front - very unlikely, or a multi million pound striker is sat on the bench with a very prommising young striker. This makes no sense.

Totally agree we need another forward Have people learnt nothing from our dismal first half of the season? DCL and Niasse have proven that they can’t be relied upon to lead the line for a prolonged period of time That means the people who claim we don’t need another forward are essentially putting all their eggs in one basket in hoping Tosun hits the ground running and stays injury free. All the top sides have plenty of options up front and I think we need the same. Someone like Vardy would be ideal as he brings a totally different threat to Cenk and end would allow us to change things if plan A isn’t working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
