    Talk of Leicester having financial difficulties and having to sell Maddison and Tielmans so that would be the only way I can see this happening.

    I think Rodgers needs a few signings who are going to make an impact as he has been very hot and cold in the transfer market, more latterly cold, despite being relatively well backed.

    Shock and awe they have been living beyond their means for ages should have used that McGuire money to balance the books rather than build one of the most expensive training grounds has anyone made it through their academy yet ?

    I would never criticise a club spending money on the infrastructure & future of the club like training facilities.

    Hence why I said have they had any one come through yet it’s one thing building it and another having the right personnel Brendan Rodgers is a great coach problem is the epl ruins him because he throws money at problems which isn’t wise considering his history on that focus goes right out the window his best work is done when he has a limited pool and gets his head down

    How long has it been built, 3 years?
    Not sure if anyone has come through yet, but they aren’t knocking it down now are they?

    Are Maddison and Barnes not academy products?

    Maddison, I’m pretty sure, came from Norwich.

    He's not ready to go yet IMO.

    Still needs to show some regular, quality consistency. For me he's still drifting in and out of games too often.

    Expecting him to show it this season.

    Luke thomas, Harvey Barnes and Dewsbury-Hall who are highly rated.

    But some of Rodgers transfer business very suspect-
    Daka bought for good money started well and has faded.
    Vestegaard was a rock for Southampton and doesnt seem fancied and or hasnt made much of an impact after being brought in.
    Perez who for me is decent but not really going to take them to the next level.

    He was a rock for Southampton. Maybe not a good fit for Rodgers playing style, whose achilles heel has always been the defence.

    In my opinion he had either edouard or daka and he chose Dhaka because he didn’t want to give our board the money we wanted the bitter *
