No, it was not needless.

His reply "He knows lots about football. Just accept it " was a mocking of my comment "I just know what I'm talking about football. Either accept it or ignore it."

He is being rude with absolutely no contribution to the discussion and you're insulting me for having told him manly, to the face, that he is acting childish. Which he probably is, a child.

Maybe you guys are used with being spanked around and not replying, but I will stand up for myself.
If you don;t want my contribution on this forum, fine. I don't think I can help the club from fighting with fans. I neither enjoy nor hate being here, I was just giving guidance for those who are open minded and wanted to learn.

There was nothing rude about my comment, I'm a sarcastic b****** at the best of times, either accept it or ignore it.

Your "I'm doing you all a favour with my guidance" and "I know what I'm talking about" stance is funny though, a surefire way to back up your conjecture on footballing matters and keep the readers enthralled.

Bristol City fans laughed when we bought Yala. Let's face it he can't be worse than award or Kelly so it's good business.

Does make me chuckle with the insight of the foxes fans - he has been the clubs young player of the year for the last 2 seasons! I think the frustration with him has been that he doesn't produce consistently enough - a little bit like Wilf did in the early days. But he was very decent in their title winning season And with focused defensive coaching he will develop and improve. He is only 24 so the best is yet to come and he has something that our current defence are missing- bags of pace! Would be a welcome addition.

So if he does sign, does this mean we should all get on his back straight away? Name one player that is worth the ridiculous amount that is paid between two PL clubs for a footballer?

You'll find we've sold plenty of players that we didn't like that went on to better things at other clubs.

Luckily, scouts know more about ability and talent than fans do.

i was merely posting what my mate said.

i dont really have an opinion either way, and no we shouldnt dig out a player because of his fee, thats why ive stuck up for benteke/townsend/cabaye numerous times as its an easy stick to back somebody with.

but give me the choice of schlupp or brady and personally im taking brady every time.

So it would seem would Leicester , they will use the money to up their Brady bid

Some people on twitter saying his preferred choice was West Brom we're just schluppy seconds

Excellent news.

Leicester fan here, not taking the piss, but thanks very much for taking Jeff off our hands. We've mugged you off big time if £12 million is the correct figure. Get used to having a 'professional' footballer looking bemused about being on a football pitch. Easily the most infuriating player I have ever seen for us.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

&#128514; Wait and see... Bear in mind I've been watching him week in week out, so I probably have a better idea of his capabilities.

You'll be massively disappointed, trust me.

You'll see a lot of rubbish Written about him, you're best to ignore it. It seems to be fashionable to slate your own players for no good reason now days. It's the "banter" and "Lads lads lads" brigade out in force.

We're no different and this forum is full of how Dwight Gayle may be tearing up the Championship this season but he will be rubbish in the Premiership next season

Hardly a good sign when his previous supporters are all knocking each other off over this £12Mil news.

Maybe we need to send Damien to have a word with Brady before all 'Is' and 'Ts' are dotted and dashed.

Again, I'm repeating myself here. He won young player of the year by default by being the only young player in the first team that was eligible.

He was also a bit part player when we won the league. He started the season and got dropped after a spanking as we were conceding far too many. It was only after he and De Laet got dropped did we really go on hot form as we could stop goals going in.

the thing that gets me about this one is that he isnt really a left back is he.. hes barely played a season at left back to my knowledge.

I know its the done thing to convert wingers to full backs these days but 12 mill seems a bit steep

Our fans haven't quite managed to grasp where football fees currently are.

I get why, we signed a premier league winning first 11 for about £15m. But it's just not the norm, it's a total freak. The norm now for raw players and someone with a decent season in the championship probably starts at £10m.

It takes some getting used to. We're paying £30m for players who struggle to trap a ball.
