Styles not in Barnsley squad because it’s papa johns trophy? He was also in Manchester yesterday with his Mrs…

Think about it like this - Leicester want a sale and are reluctant to loan him out due to potentially him leaving for nothing. Rovers don’t want to pay a fee now and want to work it into the finances for next season. Agreement reached on a loan to buy. Both parties are happy then. it’s not rocket science.

So they don’t lose him for nothing. They want some funds back however small they may be. Why would Leicester loan us a player in their last year just to lose them to free at the end of it. i guarantee it will be an obligation to buy, dressed up as a option to buy.

That’s what I meant 1 year left/ last year of contract.

This deal is set up like the Brereton deal. Loan with obligation to buy. 1 year left on contract, makes sense.

George Hirst not involved in Leicester u21s tonight. Think this one will be done tomorrow. Travel up for medical and media stuff tomorrow 👍

Body language expert are we now Gav? How have you come to that conclusion from that short video?

Surely is we wanted him, we could afford him from Venkys special pot? I don’t think he would have any interest in coming here, not when he can wait until the end of the season and leave on a free to a prem team. Would love this, but it’s pie in the sky.

I thought this guy gets ‘em right when they’re done? Got this one wrong Sweaty 😉

I can SVB coming rather than JPH purely on the basis it gives us cover for rb as well. Would love Styles through the door but can’t see it happening, JDT Is happy with Pickering and Edun when needed. Cameron Archer anyone 😉

Correct. Fair play to the guy on twitter who broke it, I just couldn’t see it being true looking at his twitter.

The guy on twitter who made up the Caulker rumour is a fake. Don’t worry about it.

100%? a play by Rovers to put pressure on Brighton….

Could be horse shit, I know they have different journos working for them. Im sure they were the first to break the Hyam story from Coventry?

My worry is if we sell Diaz we have no one who is capable of 15-20 goals per season. Gallagher may get there is played as a centre forward but from seeing JDT’s team it’s more fluid so he won’t play predominantly as a CF. If he goes we need a replacement otherwise we are up shit creek without a paddle.

https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/exclusive-everton-closing-in-on-big-money-transfer-swoop-for-blackburn-rovers-man/ Good money if true. needs replacing though. I have my doubts after the Armstrong money disappeared. if we are following the Brentford model, we best have a player(s) lined up.

Actually sounds like he’s a ball playing defender. Best not to assume he’s a no nonsense defender. As for limitations on the ball - the below is from a Coventry fan with stats to back it up. I suggest he has slot more knowledge of the player than you. This is signing you want to make if you want to keep the ball and dominate.

Smart business for me, on the youngish side for a CB (26) and has hardly missed a game for Coventry over the last two seasons. Small twitter thread on the type of player he is -

West Ham away.

Good lad Dack 😘

I would like to know this…

Is this on tv?

No, you can have a different opinion. I can still be baffled by people writing GB off, that’s my opinion.

Its the amount of negativity. People have different opinion’s, that’s the beauty of a forum. What baffles me is people writing GB off already.

Why is everyone writing GB off already? Some serious toys being thrown out the pram because we haven’t made enough singings yet. Its pathetic, at least give the man until the 1st September before you start passing judgement. Its like people think we are playing football manager and you can just sign players easily. Every day I read the messageboard and its gets more and more toxic.
