Comment | Town Confirm Matusiwa Signing
at 20:30:23
I guess a like-for-like replacement for Phillips and/or Luongo. Could be a key part of the midfield rebuild. We'll need at least one more in a similar mould, especially if rumours of Morsy moving on are true. |

Comment | Players Return For Pre-Season Training
at 12:03:26
We almost have a squad of players who were out for much of last season. How urgent are new signings? Sure, as all teams say - 3-4 new players and we'll be competing at the top. Hopefully, we won't have too many more leave and the incoming signings will start. |

I guess he wants another relegation struggle in a more familiar part of the world. Good luck. Hope he can break the promotion/relegation default |

Someone with huge potential but always seemed a loose cannon on social media, seemingly had similar issues as a player. Could have been so much more if better disciplined. |

Comment | Leicester City 2-0 Ipswich Town - Match Report
at 17:16:30
Leicester clearly wanted it more. We've gone into pre-season mode - if we've been out of it this season... A lot of rebuilding is needed, although some players returning from long-term injuries are hopefully key, effective new signings. We're lacking in central midfield with Morsy covering too much of the pitch when he's slowing, and constant changes in personnel as if we still haven't settled on the players we need. Delap's obviously on his way, Hirst was invisible for much of the game, but he's done well recently, Szmodics can hopefully be the extra option next season, without a desperate need to sign an extra player. Defence has been a problem for years, and it's clear we need a strong leader to get things organised - perhaps a change in captain to a central defensive marshal type. That's three signings needed so far! |

Comment | Palmer: We Need to Sustain Pressure For Longer Periods
at 08:48:55
It's getting the balance between tightening at the back and open effusive attacking. We won back-to-back promotion with a very attacking style but have been relegated largely due to weaknesses in defence. Next season we need to show defensive improvements as well as more attacking prowess - it will be easier against Championship teams but we need to regain the winning mentality before considering we can bounce back - our own history has shown how tough a challenge that is. Finding replacements for Morsy and Luongo is the biggest call of the summer transfer window, they both protect the defence and allow attacks to build, unless like-for-like we'll need to modify tactics to accommodate and that could change our effectiveness (could go either way even with decent players). It's a fine art balancing a team. |

Seeing as it's Ticketmaster tickets will probably be around £80-150 + £200-500 surge pricing + £2000+++ after resellers hoard all the tickets |

Comment | Taylor: The Plan is to Be a Regular Starter Next Season
at 15:09:30
It's great he has the ambition. It seems he's working hard on training and any new recruits will need to compete with him for starting games. Since joining he's been half a season behind where he needed to he with development and how we've progressed. Relegation may give a few of those on the fringe or currently out on loan more opportunities (Elkan Baggott and Cameron Humphreys, for example). Sadly there will be a few moving on, that can't be avoided, but I'm sure our squad (with some embellishments) can compete next season right at the top. |
