Tom Cannon bid in - now signed for Sheff U.

[Mowgli]

Why are people so excited about him?

Genuine question. Leicester blew everyone away last year and he scored 2 in 13.

Small purple patch at Preston which is probably no more then Mayenda is on track to do. 5 million plus seems a lot

People look at things like this far too simplistically and don't care about the context.

2 in 13 is one way... the other way is he only played 423 minutes in the championship last season and managed 2 goals and 1 assist.

So 2 goals and 1 assist in the equivalent of 4.5 games basically.

Tall line leading forward to me like

5’11”

 

[Herberthall]

Better record than Delap who's just gone to Ipswich for 15?

Do Leicester need to sell?

 

[southstander]

5’11”

Not that tall then

 

[Scootsie]

Fuck me man

Club can't f***ing win

It’s an absolutely ridiculous comment like.

 

[jesus juice]

Mendy and Simic for me. Experience + potential.
Both very different players too
Cannon i"m a bit meh

Same for me and I don’t really know why. Maybe it’s the names and irrational but Cannon is giving me Gelhardt vibes for no particular reason

 

[bomba2]

Sell a player for 15 mill, bid 5 mill for someone and people are more than happy. We are the ideal fans for these owners mind.

100% agree, the tight bastards should have just lashed the whole £15m down on Canon to show some real ambition

 

[sir rowell cummins]

Not that tall then

Wears Cuban heels

 

[GBSAFC]

Wages is a probably going to be an issue. I'd imagine that his wages might have increased due to promotion.

As others have said we maybe be genuinely looking at him to focus minds about simic and or mendy

 

[Billy Batts]

He'll be going for more than 5m. There'll be too many clubs in for him.

 

[Mackemansj1]

Better record than Delap who's just gone to Ipswich for 15?

Do Leicester need to sell?

Different positions? Always thought this lad was a forward/striker while Delap was an attacking mid? Not an expert in either mind so maybe wrong. This lad did well on loan at Preston didn’t he? Might sway him having Browne here.

He'll be going for more than 5m. There'll be too many clubs in for him.

Stoke and Norwich are rumoured to want to loan him ( only) .. lcfc will want cash , and and such we might be able to structure it in line with clarkes deal structure.

Given a choice I would prefer this order of preference

Simic .. as he's offer height power and possible a higher ceiling for development

Cannon as he has goals in the championship and is still very young

Mendy ... coz he has been prolific. but his age means his shelf life might be short

Fuck it I’ll chip in let’s get all three

I think most of those other clubs don't actually need him - Norwich and Sheff Utd have both bought strikers already, and Stoke are interested in someone else fron what I've read.

Shhhh man KLD will be around to open your wallet .... not the ham one naarrll

 

[Mackemansj1]

Haha he’d have a job mind

 

[Mackem00]

Was dead against this on account of his supposed attitude and not being all he's cracked up to be.

Then I realised I was getting him mixed up with Troy Parrot. Don't know out about Cannon.

I just can't handle all these young Irish strikers with novelty surnames who have played on loan at Preston at some point.

I was doing the same.

 

[CheersMarra84]

Get Simic and Cannon in now, pick Mendy up in January to finish the job off, and unleash total Le Bris ball on the Premier League

 

[GBSAFC]

Haha he’d have a job mind

He'll high pressure you ... reggie will watch ...arms folded and unimpressed

 

[Mackem00]

So you sell a player for £15m, and your suggesting we buy a different player for £15m, and that would what, make everyone happy? I’d rather have kept jack Clarke than spunk all his sale proceeds on some fucker I know nowt about personally, but sell and buy say three better than we have squad players now I’d be happy with that, it’s how a club progresses without breaking the bank.

I'd like to see the list of 15 million quid rated players who'd come to the Championship narl.
