Unless people have been living in a shoe, we know why Leo didn't play much for Leicester. That is hardly difficult to work out. The question really, is whether not being good enough to get in Leicester's team = not good enough to add something to ours.

Wingers don't have to defend or protect fullbacks anymore, didn't you get the NSC tactical memo?

Not sure they are the same tbh. Yes, neither is blessed with pace, both good in the air, but that doesn't make two players the same. Leo always offered a bit more in the build up for me, good with his back to the defender, more capable of seeing a pass than Murray. We are talking very fine...

It's possible Ulloa could start, Baldock though...I very much doubt it.

Well, at least he will have that option.

2 Strikers, in one window, has the world gone mad!?! :mad:

Not funny. Not even in jest. Stat Brother might appreciate it though, he bought a labrador just for the memories...:moo:

Is Locadia not meant to fit that bill?

I was hoping Plans A & B would be with us by the start of Feb. :thumbsup:

Oh blimey, I didn't realise I was replying to someone with a Mumsnet level of sensitivity. :bigwave:

No, I doubt anyone thinks he is, but what I think most positive comments about him on loan is he's a damn good 2nd or 3rd choice answer if needed. You're not going to sign 2 of 3 strikers who are all ready to rip the league up. Ulloa may well be a nice plan C to have on the bench.

It isn't tactical when we can't keep the ball as was the case at West Brom. CH isn't telling them to give the ball away and invite pressure. We had plenty of play in their final 3rd at West Brom in the first half, but we kept losing the ball, including Izquierdo who was probably the worst for...

I imagined his motm attacking performance against Bournemouth then...must have been someone else's tactics that game?

I'm not saying Izqueirdo shouldn't play, I'm saying he should only play if CH feels he is the best option, not because he cost however much. Did you think he looked effective home to Palace in the cup and away at West Brom? Right now it's Schelotto +1. Probably is Izquierdo, but that is more...

What don't you get? Should CH play him just because he cost £Xm? Or play him on merit of what he is giving and delivering? He had his chance home to Bournemouth, took it and looked amazing, then starting the next 2 looked absolutely dreadful. CH will pick whoever he thinks is his best starting...

Been playing a bit for the U23s, got his last 90mins for them in December in the Check-a-trade.

Exactly. Are people nuts or something? No one is saying Ulloa is going to be the main man, but as a loan to the end of the season signing, he is most certainly an upgrade to Hemed, and gives us an option. If Murray or Locadia have struggled in a game, with 15mins to go, I feel a lot better with...

They've got £80m worth of strikers – Ulloa has still be making the bench and making sub appearances, all be it very limited, so your statement that they didn't think he was 'anywhere near good enough' is wrong, they've simply got too many strikers. If we can't get better, I'd take Ulloa in a...

His last appearance was away to Watford on Boxing day where he came on as sub. Has made the bench regularly, just not always come on. He didn't feature at all against Fleetwood, but did in the League Cup, so you can surmise that Leicester have prevented the player being cup tied for this...
