I’m ok with this as long as he is 4th choice.
We probably will sign 2 CBs this summer meaning we would have Romero snd 2 new signings so for the squad we would need a 4th and he is probably the best of what we have left, as sad as that is to admit

Why about an injury similar to Bentancur, would you want Davies to play alongside Romero for 9 months.On the hypothetical basis that we also sign Tab & VDV; without Europe one of the 3 would be absolutely starved of game-time....... One of them 3 currently already plays for an EPL club and can get another year of top league development there.
Romero + 2
Davies & Emerson in emergencies.

Has he been put up for sale ?Dier has 1 year left on his contract, we're looking for new centre backs and not a single team is interested in him. That should tell you all you need to know.
League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup…..plenty of games for rotation.On the hypothetical basis that we also sign Tab & VDV; without Europe one of the 3 would be absolutely starved of game-time.......

All our targets are in the last year by the looks of it
Players have gotten wise to not just taking the quick little wages rise for a contract extension every time it's offered.

Oh look, Matt's feeling left out it seems, needs his 5 mins of fame
He’s not a kid.
We need 4CBs
Romero
Tapsoba
Tosin
VdV
Bearing in mind Romero fucks off to Argentina and AFCON for Tapsoba occasionally…
Maybe Dier or Lenglet around as the 5th CB?
He’s def getting games
Thought he was like 23, but still.....
5CBS?????
What exactly are all these games you're anticipating?
As for Leglet specifically; even buying him for #4 would be an absolute waste of money this season. We've got 2 utility players in Emerson & Davies; we don't need all this squad padding.
According to Leicester’s message board, it’s 15% of the profit on Maddison. They bought him for £25m from Norwich, so 15% of £15m is £2.25m to Norwich.Technically Leicester dont even get that, Norwich have a SELL ON clause , depending on which newspaper outlet you read basically its between 10% - 15%.... therefore Leicester receives £34M or £36M

We need at least 2.I really can’t see us signing 3 CBs especially when we have 5 on our books already
