    Only called him a waste of a player due to his lack of work ethic not his ability

    He would be a great replacement for the Valon Behrami song, so it's a yes from me

    The conditions in the market are not great right now. They bulldozed it to make way for the new INTU extension.

    And also the club has never rubbished a spurious rumour from a random football site. If they've felt the need to say they're not in for him, they definately are.

    Nice of them to think about fan morale before the big derby on Saturday.

    I do think that's the only way this deal could actually happen considering his alleged market value. I'd be surprised if it did though.

    Agreed, surprised and disappointed. Deeney gets a bit of stick (including from me, occasionally) but for us as a club I would take him over Slimani all day long, and a bit more.

    I've "Liked" this post, but it's the suggestion of how it could happen I like, not the actual thought of TD leaving.

    I think Troy is a more versatile player and could be a utility player for WFC, as he can playout wide or even in a deeper role, rather than just as an out and out striker, as Salami is.

    Big difference between being wide and playing out wide.

    Confess I don't really know much about Slimani not really having much interest in watching Leicester games. However, despite being rubbished for Leicester he scored 7 goals in 13 starts plus 10 subs. It's not exactly a bad record for a striker. I definitely dont want us to spend that much on a 29 year old but is he really that bad?

    On pure goalscoring terms, an upgrade on Deeney at this level I'd say. I can't see Troy ever demolishing the Portuguese league like Slimani did the season before last.

    Also had a good season under Silva in 14/15. Shades of 'getting the band back together' from Marco.

    Slimani is very good in the air, scores most of his goals with his head

    Not a great fan of Slimani and the only way he would come to us would be a swap with Deeney. I think we have to put our trust in Silva and the Pozzos on this one. If Deeney is the type of player that does not feature in our new system it would be better for him and us if he goes out on a high. Would not like to see a disgruntled Deeney not getting picked at least on an irregular basis. I do think we would be strengthening a 'rival', which says alot for Deeney's overall qualities. We have built our team around Deeney for several years, very successfully. It does determine our style of play however when he is always the first name on the team sheet. I can be as sentimental as the next person but sooner or later he will move on. I would however prefer s swap with Iheanacho but that's never going to happen!

    Reports in Portugal says that Marco Want him... Probably, Okaka or Deeney will leave...

    I'd keep Deeney.

    He's our only player who can play up front and out wide.

    Simultaneously.
