Shukes Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Way too late. Two years ago yes. After last season…. No chance. Unless he is dirt cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Captain Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 Not the answer. Not even close to what we want / need. Had a purple patch, much like Origi, but has been dogshit ever since. Family are LCFC season ticket holders and have gone to every game home & away for years. They would laugh their asses off if we bought him.

Fosse Captain Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 I just don't get why we'd want him. As said before I get good info regarding Leicester players and he's just not that good. He isn't a goal scorer. He prefers to sit deeper and even when found up top most often plays with his back to goal. Not for me.

Hafnia Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 His goals per minutes isn’t bad at all. If we could get rid of maupay for similar then he definitely is an improvement there. For me we need a number 9 though…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 He's a great scorer if you're literally giving him a tap in. Other than that he's fucking useless, so steer clear please. Fosse Captain 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonsta Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 It took him 3 years to have a decent game at Leicester, and very erratic since, big No from me,would be no better than Maupay, needs to many chances to convert one. If this is where we are now its worse than i thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunlopp9987 Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 I don't know why everyone's so confused/frustrated by this rumor. It's the middle of July and our only signing has been 38 year old Ashley Young. We've barely survived relegation the last 2 years. These are the types of players we're gonna be linked with, unfortunately. Matt, StevO and Matt Tiger 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Tiger Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 He's also a better finisher than Maupay. No idea what interest if any there is in Maupay but I'd gladly pay a modest fee to move on from Maupay and bring Iheanacho in for squad depth. The issue is he likely wouldn't just be squad depth but we clearly don't have the money to approach proper attacking targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shukes Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 Total min = 7820 Total goals = 60 7820 % 60 = 130.3 surely that’s not right? Where do they get these stats?

I agree on the lone striker point - needs a partner. His link up play is decent with a proper number 9 - Dyche has gone 2 ‘up top’ throughout his managerial career so may be looking to do it here eventually.

But true to TT maths, his stats are saying a goal every a goal every 1.6 games, which is pretty good. But he definitely isn’t one to lead the line.

As has been mentioned, I think his goals record is actually pretty good considering the minutes he plays. I would put him in the Maupay category, albeit a much better finisher, in that he needs to play for a team that create chances for him and his record is better than he actuallly is because he has played for a team that does create chances.

Shukes Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 The more you look into it, you realise he is the player Maupay was meant to be. But have we missed the boat on this one, passes his best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell when there are no headings. So that doesn’t show how many of those are starts or coming off the bench? Im intrigued as he was never a starter for City and at Leicester he was second choice behind Vardy. I’ve no idea if he’s any good or not, but when he’s only been a bench player it’s hard to know a true goal scoring record. All I do know is, he’s definitely better than Maupay, everyone is! We won’t buy him anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 42 and 28, so 70, but I assumed that was goals and assists. Which would be a goal or assist every 111.7 minutes. One every 1.2 games. Seems too high to be true though. Edit; It’s right. He scores a goal every 186 minutes in the prem, and in his whole career every 155 minutes. He’s only 26 as well. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/kelechi-iheanacho/leistungsdaten/spieler/295330/saison//plus/1#gesamt Shukes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
