Dragovic not returning to Leicester

What are your thoughts on this guys? I think it’s a shame. Apparently his nose was put out of joint a bit when he was dropped after Morgan’s injury following a string of good performances. He’s not convinced he will get first team football so despite Leicester’s efforts to sign him permanently in the last few weeks he is on the cusp of a move to either Everton or West Ham.

We are moving for a couple of alternatives however

Still leaves us short
We have 3 cb ?

We're looking at other options, I expect another cb to sign.

Dragovic clearly wont sign while Puel is about.

If that's his grump then I can see what his concern is. He was playing well and formed a good, effective partnership with Maguire, didn't deserve to be dropped, shouldn't have been dropped, and with Maguire, Evans and Morgan ahead of him in the pecking order for next season I can understand why he wants to try his luck elsewhere.

If we actually wanted him to stay that's appalling man management considering Morgan can only be a bit player going forward - I'm blaming Rudders.

Not too disappointed. Good player but not exceptional.

Wish him well wherever he goes.

I'm more surprised it was ever in question. Perhaps he was waiting to see whether Puel stayed or not.

I'm with Mersey here. Useful player and would have been welcome but it doesn't feel like we're missing out on a star.

It’s got a Kramaric feel to it this one. He’s been superb in the Bundasliga but he was the right player at the wrong time for us and we had to let him go. Interestingly I think he would fit into Puels team much better than he did Ranieris

Dragovic arrives with a very good reputation as being a bright young CB talent and I think whoever gets him will be getting a very good signing. He slotted in pretty seemlessly and was composed and measured when called on, showing good positional awareness. I wish like kramaric we had found a way to make it work

We should have done all we could to keep him. Maguire was always a much better player alongside him that Morgan.

Not surprised he was disappointed to be dropped when Wes came back from injury.

Disapointed he's going, think he'd have been a good squad player. Couldn't be guaranteed a first team spot, but other than Maguire who is at the back ? Wes fitness ? Evans needs to fit in, Pereira unknown quantity at Pl level, Fuchs fitness ?, Chillwell defensive capabilities ? kids coming through, could be.
Of course we await any further signings


Good luck to Drago in pastures new

Oh and forgot Benny, but given his Tunisian performances, perhaps we should forget nim

Oh and of course would think Simmo is still in contention

And in that statement lies the reason why he wouldn't want to come and is right to look elsewhere.
