Not asking if we are interested but looks like with Sturridge going and ings future being unclear we might look at a striker next summer. anyone think Vardy might be a good shout? Probably about 15 million at his age. I know Leicester haven't been great this season but he did show great talent last season. His Pace along with mane would be a defenders nightmare.

Its hard because you can't argue with goals. But I think over a longer period of tine we have seen Vardy regress to the mean so to speak. I'm never big on bringing in players based on their prime 2 seasons ago so I would advicate that Vardy is strictly hands off.

I hate using this phrase, but Vardy was clearly a 1 season wonder.

Of all of Leicesters players I would only take 3. Kasper, Chilwell and Okazaki. Possibly Mahrez but I am unconvinced he is worth the transfer fee and wages we'd pay. Plus he plays on the right, isn't as good as Mane, and seems like he'd sulk at being a sub.

Kasper is a cracking keeper, shame about his dad, but we don't get to pick our families ;) main features to his game that would benefit us are a) his vocal leadership at the back and b) his devastatingly accurate throws to initiate quick counter attacks.

Chilwell is a top talent with vast potential, who could solve our decade long wait for a decent left back!

And Okazaki is absolutely everything Klopp wants in a forward player. Technically gifted, direct, unselfish, and all importantly he is an absolute work horse. Could you imagine the nightmares teams would have with Firmino and/ or Okazaki hunting them down inside their own 18 yard box! He is also one of the good guys in football who doesn't moan or drop his performance level if he is a sub or has to fight for his place. Vardy and Mahrez may have got all the plaudits last season but Okazaki was up there with Kante in terms of his desire to win. He never slacked off. Dropping him for Slimani has been an absolutely torrid decision by Claudio.

Vardy though is just an absolute no from me. He is acting like he has made it, which for me is a major sign that he lacks the hunger to stay at the top level.

Vardy! Why why why? Nooooooo! Had 1 good season in the prem and now looks shot to pieces. Let's go all
Out and get Huth to partner Matip too? No didn't think so either. we are better than Vardy, we have bought enough mediocre players over the years. We don't need to take another teams rubbish on!

Yes MK I missed that bit. Vardy looks like he's changed from someone who appreciates where he is to someone full of himself and thinks he's better than he really is!

I'd take Gray looks like he'll have a fantastic future.

{Ed001's Note - do you think so? Plenty of skill but no footballing brain at all for me. He makes the wrong passes, runs, tries the wrong things constantly. Shame as he has plentiful ability, but just watch him, everything breaks down at him. For me he is a big part of the problem there, as he has played more, results have worsened for them as he just squanders possession repeatedly.}

We should avoid splashing money on 'Stop Gaps'. A more younger and fitter player.

I think Vardy as our striker fits us to a T. Great call. He does good pressing for Leicester, and I reckon he still has 2 good years of top football left.

Schmeichel is a bang average keeper who has had one good season in his career. He's not better than either Mignolet or Karius, I'd rather we took a punt on Begovic as he's a top keeper and wouldn't cost the earth, plus Chelsea aren't going to refuse to sell to us.

Ed01 I'm not going to lie I've only watched 4-5 Leicester games this season and he has looked decent I watched him more in the championship and he looked great that might of been because he was head and shoulders better than anyone around him, I do agree he loses possession far to much do you think that could be coached with time? He does have age on his side so hopefully he would learn when not to do certain things and when to do them I would say ronaldo was the same when he first join united.

Leek. 2 more good seasons at the top? How's that, he has only ever had 1 good season at the top. And you'd want to spend 15 million or so on him and give him 80-100 grand a week or whatever stupid contract Leicester rewarded him with! No thanks.

No LC players will be of any help to us judging by the season they are having individually and collectively so no point talking about any of them, IMO.

Ed, what you say about Gray is Emre Can in a nutshell.

{Ed001's Note - that's not quite true, Can is just trying too hard, Gray is just that type of player. Hard to explain what I mean, it is just a feeling I get watching them. Gray doesn't look like he is trying to impress, per se, just that he thinks he is capable of beating 5 players and slotting the ball home. Can looks like a player who knows the crowd is on his back so he is trying to do a little bit more than he should. Low confidence makes him take an extra touch to control it, then that intent to impress makes him take an extra couple trying to make something happen.}
