Don't agree with that at all. He'd walk into every championship team, and quite a few premiership teams. He's not the ''top level'' player he once was, but we're not playing at the top level so he'd be a great asset. You can't pass up the oppertunity to sign quality like Riise, and you can't rely just on youth. Look what happend the last time we tried that!!

Then the first thing we should do is report Burnley to the FA for tapping up.

tbf Clubs have had long enough to bid for him, Burnley want him but obviously don't have the money. The fact we've annouced it makes me believe we're almost there. I'd be totally devestated if he signs for someone else now, and it'll show why the club needs to keep quiet until it's 100%!!!.

Pretty much expect this to be a done deal. We never annouce officially until we're almost there. + we're the only club that have actually had permission to speak to him and his agent.

It would quadruple what leicester city have spent so far

I'm following it on twitter.

TBF Adkins should have known the lads personality and attitude from the off anyway, seeing as he worked with him for a few years.

Adkins confirmed it in the press Conf. which makes me believe we're pretty close to annoucing it....(we're the only club to have a bid accepted as well, so he's got no one else to talk to)

This is one of the best press conf's Adkins has ever done!

Money was always avaliable.

Quoted 4m, but I don't think anyone has actually stumped up the cash yet.

Totally agree with everything you say there. As we've seen with M'Boro last season, they spent £12m - they finished bottom half. Swansea barley spent a penny, but kept a squad together for years and built on the momentum.

CMS will join Lecister today, pretty much done and dusted. I expect us to either get maynard, or go for a forigen player.

Possibly the wages he wanted, and maybe his mindset for moving down south. Maybe he feels we can get better value elsewhere? Who knows, but at least it shows we have significant money to use.

I think that's what Cortese said in January, we were trying for players like Mackail-Smith etc but they kept quoting the chambo fee we may be getting.

Pretty much.

Delighted with this news. Well worth the new deal and If Grant Holt can score 20+ at this level, so can Lambo if fully fit - I'm confident in that.

And unless they pay to our terms we aren't interested. Still a long way to go, NC will not sell easily.

Cause he knows we've got fans who buy it, as they want to be spoon feed daily.

That's not a great argument is it.

Agreed, but some people can't stand this for some reason. They need to be spoon fed daily just to appease them. Alot of peoples opinions are that Leicester are spending £££££ simply because they're linked to so many players. They've only spent just over £1m and their fans are already panicking that they actually have no money. So it's not just us with the idiot fans.

Is this really all that matters to some people? We have to spend £$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ on a player just because? If some of the people on this forum ever become football managers then I fear for the club.

Not if it's a loan deal with Roma covering a good %.

And that's it! Probably will end up being word for word tbf...
