Say bye bye to Kante, too.

Next is Mahrez. Then Drinkwater.


:lol:

Is this before or after Turkey win the Euro finals?

If you're right we'll just have to make do with Musa and Slimani leading the line and Mendys and Brahimi feeding them. :wink:


That's quite a bit backtracking. You were so sure of yourself about leicester not losing any players, it is only fair that you get roasted if and when leicester loses players.

So get back to me when they've gone.

Teams want the best players in the world. Leicester clearly have them. :D

I find it funny how you all jump on reports before anything happens.

I admit I didn't think Vardy would leave, I wasn't so sure about Mahrez and Kanté but as of now we haven't lost anyone and we've upgraded at keeper.

As I said get back to me when someone actually leaves. You've been so adamant that Vardy is gone perhaps you should be standing legs open and bracing for him to stay. :wink:

I think he might have meant the historical reference.

No_20 is probably convinced that England's lack of international football success stems from a curse placed upon us during the Anglo-Zulu conflict in 1879.

I had a Turkish teacher once. Mr. Bulent. Man came in as a substitute teacher after my normal Geography teacher had heart surgery, and you know how it is when a substitute teacher comes in, most students use it as an excuse to **** around. Not with Mr. Bulent, he had a glare that could pierce all pretenses at 20 yards. Deathly silence during his lessons. That's the essence of Turks to me.

That and Turkish delight, we can surely thank the Ottoman Empire for those.

Turkish delight is so overrated.

This is my experience with Turks/Turkey

The good
Absolutely beautiful country
Fun spirited people
Great food
Fun football
Passionate people
Smart and resourceful

The bad

Lots of loud and arrogant guys
Sleazy businessmen
Lots of irrational homerism

Massimo pretty much exemplifies a Turk to me lol. 100% Turk :-)

most turks i come across in daily life drive me crazy with their lack of manners. but if you forge a relationship with any of em chances are you will have some of the strongest friendships of your life. kinda opposite of americans.


food is the best part though :)

Yoooooooo. You are very good at backpedalling. How nice.

Turks are good until you cross that line. You can ask your friends who support leeds. But if you dont cross, they are good people and would be your friend till you die.

Vardy is gone, Kante is gone. Mahrez next. Typical low end team. One good year then good teams buy their players left and right. Relegation zone here is Leicester next year

Emre Mor to Dortmund. 16 million euro.

Watch this kid. He will become a superstar.

Glorious overpay for a player having 13 games of Danish league experience. Will be interesting to see whether he can live up to the pressure of that sum.

Definitely not in love in how Dortmund is stockpiling young wingers.

Mkhitaryan is probably as good as gone

Stockpiling young players is always a good idea. Dembele for examplr was a great purchase. But Mor was way too expensive

I mean, this probably means they have no intention of keeping Mkhitaryan in the long run.

Of course they have the intention of keeping him long run. Problem is Mkhitaryan manager is looking to get a laaaarge paycheck and thus prefers to get him on an EPL team.

Getting Mkhitaryan would make up for this Vardy disaster for Arsenal

Maybe he has, maybe he hasn't, but don't like how it looks right now.
