The dream is over, should United go after any Leicester City player?

[GM K]

Raneiri has been fired.

They can't make top four or win the league again.

Atletico Madrid finally killed their Champions League dream yesterday.

One gets the feeling that some Leicester City players are there for the taking in the summer.

Kasper, Vardy, Ndidi, Mahrez, Drinkwater, Albrighton...is there any one of them United should be going after?

Can any of them be a good squad player or even get a space in the first eleven regularly?

 

[iHicksy]

Quite simply, no.

 

[Pexbo]

Nope. Might have taken Vardy in the summer but he's not an age to gamble on now. Mahrez is the next closest choice but I doubt his mentality and I don't think he's the type of wide forward we need.

 

[Quizierda]

IF you would have to name one I would go for Ndidi.

Looked quite good the few times I have seen him so far and he could be a good squad player (maybe more in the future) for us.

 

[Nickosaur]

Ndidi is interesting but think he should have another season in the PL before any top club gets involved. Mahrez and Vardy are still top players IMO, but Vardy probably should have taken his chance for the big move last summer. Mahrez I don't feel is good enough for a top, top club.

Chilwell looks like a good prospect.

 

[SidRed]

Vardy maybe a option if we fail to land Griezmann/Lukaku.

 

[Robertd0803]

No, not really.

 

[Florida Man]

From a marketing perspective, Woodward could do wonders with Drinkwater.

 

[Red Ryan]

Nope they are a bunch of one season wonders the only one with long-term potential was Kante and there's no chance of us ever signing him now.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Damarai Gray.

 

[DWelbz19]

Ndidi is a great prospect but not one for right now. I think the top 6 should keep an eye on Mahrez and if the fee is quite low should be an option. A squad option, that is. I don't think he's much better than that.

 

[JJ12]

Vardy maybe a option if we fail to land Griezmann/Lukaku.

Imagine failing on those 2 and signing Vardy

 

[Kostur]

No, bunch of mostly average cnuts who'll down their tools like they did with Ranieri when things don't go their way.

 

[Dong Fangzhuo]

Chilwell could be interesting. Ndidi and Gray might be worth a look as well if we were just looking to round out an already strong squad. As it is, I think we should be prioritising 3-4 quality additions to our XI rather than padding our depth chart though.

 

[Fracture90]

Kasper and Ndidi would be interesting options. Vardy and Mahrez proved they're backstabbing cnuts.

 

[ivaldo]

Ndidi is interesting but think he should have another season in the PL before any top club gets involved. Mahrez and Vardy are still top players IMO, but Vardy probably should have taken his chance for the big move last summer. Mahrez I don't feel is good enough for a top, top club.

Chilwell looks like a good prospect.

Ndidi's technique is terrible, doesn't have enough to his game to be a DM for a side competing for the league.

Chilwell looks awful too. Watching him against Atletico was painful.

Casper and Mahrez are the pick of the bunch.

 

[Raees]

Gray, Chilwell, Mahrez.. ecent players. United level? don't know about that but they should get snapped up by side like Everton.

 

[ferguson2]

if de Gea leaves I would go for Schmeichel.
Vardy isn't the striker we need and Mahrez is the perfect Arsenal player.

 

[Castia]

Nah the main one went to Chelsea. Kante is class id love to see him alongside Pogba and Herrera.

 

[CM]

I could see Mahrez, Gray or Ndidi generating interest from a couple of top 6/7 sides but we should be setting the bar higher than that. Mahrez has let himself down this season and the others still have a way to go before being good enough for us.

 

[NinjaFletch]

If we were in a better position I wouldn't be hugely opposed to a gamble on Mahrez if the price is right, but I don't think we can afford to right now.

 

[roonster09]

Would like to sign Mahrez.

 

[EyeInTheSky]

Kante

Gray is a good one to point out.

Ndidi joined in Jan isn't it. Very early to think about moving.

 

[Red Ryan]

If De Gea leaves then Schmiecel might be a decent option to battle it out with Romero for the number one shirt as he probably wouldn't cost much and there aren't many alternatives available.

 

[Blind]

Mahrez on his day is still one of the most creative players in the league, would add a lot to our right side.

 

[CM]

Ndidi joined in Jan isn't it. Very early to think about moving.

Yeah, he did. I don't think either he or Gray would leave this summer - Ndidi already dismissed rumours of a United move on Twitter - but I'm sure that won't stop them from attracting interest.

 

[rcoobc]

Imagine failing on those 2 and signing Vardy

Hey, we signed Alan Smith and Michael Owen in the post Ruud Van Nistelrooy era. We bought Valencia after selling Ronaldo.

Sometimes you buy a player that will do a job.

 

[Red_toad]

Yep him and Ndidi are their best players now. I'd like either or both at United.

 

[Quizierda]

Loosing DDG and replacing him with Schmeichel and Romero would be a massive downgrade.

Kasper is a decent GK nothing more, nothing less. He (as well as Romero) clearly does not have the class of DDG and never will. If we sell DDG we need to get a proper and clear No.1 to replace him (Oblak would be my choice). Schmeichel could be the replacement for Romero but certainly not DDG.

I would have to point to the fact that God was our manager during those days

 

[Scarecrow]

Mahrez is still a good player and Ndidi seems to have a lot of potential. The rest are pretty average.

I don't want either at United, to be honest, unless they're giving them away for free. We should be buying starters and making squad players out of the current starters, not just upgrade the bench. Simply put.

 

[The Outsider]

Mahrez, Ndidi and Gray would all appeal to other clubs.

Not sure Mahrez has reached the form he showed last season but last season was incredible.
Ndidi and Gray both look like younger talent with potential.

 

[coolredwine]

No.

 

[Nick.]

On one hand I'd like Mahrez because he could recapture his form from last season, but his eages are £100,000 a week at Leicester so he'd probably have to be a first team player and not a squad option.

 

[Bwuk]

Ndidi would be a good squad option. Maybe wouldn't start every week though.

Mahrez is great but we need a out and out winger more than what he is.

 

[The Outsider]

You also need to consider who he would likely replace from your current starting 11, Lingard, Mkhikytaran etc.

 

[anant]

Chillwell maybe. Could be a good player in future.
Don't want players, like Mahrez, vardy etc. who aren't giving their all when going is tough

 

[rcoobc]

Indeed.

There is a fine line between buying the odd Premier League water-carrier to strengthen the squad, and being Liverpool
