Don’t know why they’d loan them to rivals. We’re both clubs battling for promotion. More likely they go back to Belgium or another top 5 league.

No more ex-Chelsea youth players?

Callum Doyle returning to Man City. Only featured 17 times for Leicester. Would imagine £5-6 Mil with sell ons etc might get him or another Loan.

They didn’t look pretty good to me. Collins chucking the ball into his own goal as per
Because of injuries. He's not going anywhere for £5-6 million.

By getting enough of the signings right, regardless of which league they come from. We likely can't afford to focus on signings at our own level or above as we don't have an owner willing to run us at a huge loss season after season. Promotion is possible, just look at Luton.

On the cheap??
I think we overpaid for every L1 signing. Spend almost £10m on three players.
I suspect you will need to pay in excess of £10m for him. Leicester were quoted £15m when they tried to buy him last summer.
Probably half the price of rated championship equivalent players who made champ playoffs. But most likely twice as shit. Only time will tell Doug is buying players to sell on at profit or is really interested in getting promoted. The fans will see through it soon enough and work out what he is really all about. At the end of the day, if you don’t mate playoffs again this season I can see the support dwindling.
Doyle could be a future England International CB. Millions would be a good investment, his value is bound to rise.

He could be but considering he couldn’t get into a Championship side regularly in his normal position last season I’m gonna say it’s quite unlikely.

We got fleeced for Kitching. Imagine how much better we would’ve been with Binks/Thomas/£4.5m midfielder than Kitching/Thomas/Ayari
To be fair, Leicester needed a left-back and he could play there. Doyle was only involved in 3 of the 11 matches they lost this season, and one of them he played 13 minutes off the bench.
Do you think? He was 23, Barnsley captain (who had just lost in the play-offs), and probably their most highly regarded player.

Obviously we got fleeced for Kitching because we bought their club captain on deadline day. Recipe for disaster, but the fee isn’t his fault.

Doyle would be a tremendous signing.

He's been great for Leicester and firmly part of City's future plans for the time being. Don't expect to see him move for under 30m + add ons. Can see another Leicester loan.

Not too fussed honestly, think theres better options out there. Great shot stopper but terrible distributor.

The Kitching criticism is very short sighted. Rewind 4 months ago and everyone was saying he was looking a quality step up.
Everyone suffered the last 2 months, admittedly Kitchen was shite but form is temporary, class is permanent. We'll find out start of next season who the real Liam Kitching is

McNally for us was better than Thomas has been for us. Thomas makes so many errors, McNally was more stable for us

I like McNally - but point with Thomas, in the big big games he's generally been outstanding. It's his consistency which is the issue, but also what you expect with younger, rougher diamond players - expect that to improve next season. His ceiling is very high.
Also different system and personal so tough to judge, we are far more open this season for example, how would have Mcnally coped?
Would take Doyle back on loan In heartbeat, however he's destined for bigger things.

McNally has been utter garbage in a back 4 for Stoke

McNally is a sensible defender and did well for us (playoff final excluding where the occasion seemed to affect him).
Thomas has far better quality on the ball and his ability to play through the lines is what Robins wants from centre backs. That does mean he makes mistakes and sometimes plays us into trouble. I think he’s really good and will get better.
