I think it would be a massive mistake if Thomas went to Leicester. It's the same for the majority of footballer's in the game but, he's a player that especially needs a consistent run of first-team games otherwise his form drastically dips. This was evident in the first half of last season where he looked consistently poor. Obviously it didn't help with the awful team around him, but he still failed to stand out. However, once we gave him a run of games look how he proved the doubters wrong and ended the season being our top goalscorer. This arguably shows that he's a confidence player, therefore what would the benefit be in being confined to Leicester's Under 23's?
If he was to leave CCFC, he should remain within League 1/League 2; in order to be a constant within a starting XI. Signing for a club any higher and his progress would inevitably suffer. It's obviously biased but I think staying with CCFC would be the right move in his career at this moment in time. If he has a successful season then he can climb the Football League ladder, with or without us. There's no need for him to fall into the same trap as countless footballers who become blinded by the attractive prospects the Premier League has to offer because there's a risk he could become a forgotten entity. Thomas has a massive decision ahead of him over the next couple of weeks but he needs to remember that the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
