    People saying Leicester might up the bid to £30m for Troy deeney. Questioning them on player recruitment seems like questioning Saban at this point but that is a lot of a 27 year old who has never exactly lit it up.

    Some of their biggest signings have been flops. Kramaric, Inler, Benalouane.

    they've had one good season, why do you keep acting like they have this infallible system?

    Fair enough. Probably went a tad overboard. I have been a fan of a lot of their moves. Signing Kante, talks of replacing him with mendy, the signing of demarai grey and obviously mahrez but no one is immune to some misses.

    Was looking to talk more about the shockingly high valuation for deeney than Leicester overall

    Two Ligue 1 snippets:
    * Napoli have made 3rd and final offer of €23m for Lyon midfielder Corentin Tolisso (L'Equipe). Love Tolisso...
    * Samuel Umtiti poised for €30m Barcelona switch.

    It would be a bit of a shame if Watford and Deeney were to break up. There would be lots of disillusioned Watford fans if he left. The triangle of recent history between Deeney, Watford and Leicester would be very intriguing.

    The united fan coworker in the office wants Mkhitaryan even though he hadn't heard of him until last week.

    He also asked who "Henry" Kane was whenever Utd were linked to him for 5 minutes a while back.

    If they keep this up it wouldn't surprise if they get relegated in the next year or two. Hopefully MLD finally sells the team ASAP.

    A lot of change is in the wind for Lyon:
    * Bedimo is leaving.
    * Lots of teams a chasing some of their incredible youth (Tolisso, Ghezzal, etc).
    * Teams are always coming after Lacazette
    * Valbuena has been linked with a move to Mexico.
    * Hatem Ben Arfa linked with a move to Lyon.

    If they keep Laca and their youth, replace Valbuena with Ben Arfa, and roll with a healthy Fekir. Oh boy will that be fun.... If you guys haven't watched Tolisso and Ghezzal play, make an effort to do so this year.

    Sad that he's going to settle for Crystal Palace. Feel like he deserves much better. Can't blame him for wanting out of Marseille though.
