Look down a few articles
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What you on about? The Spurs articles on the link or a few articles down on here?
But anyway whatever, this article is about Musa signing for Leicester so let's discuss that eh? 👍
BlackStarr has created an almost identical article earlier with around 20 comments discussing it. Just saying if you wanted to discuss it, that's probably the place (if you hadn't seen it)

Ah ok, I filter BS so not seen it 👍
He's not a striker, he's a winger/forward
Brown Ideye the second.
Ridiculously overpriced.
Surely you can't pay £12m for someone who plays in a pub league....

Musa is frighteningly quick.
CSKA's best player in our 2nd game against them (was injured for the first).

The Russian league is a step up from the Ukranian, so more conference than pub league 😉
But it will be £18.9m if we want him apparently.
The sort of money you have to spend if you want to cement yourselves up with the big boys

Ran the Argies ragged at the World Cup, scored twice and I remember him well. I watched every game of that tournament and he was their best player by far.
Who would he play in place of though?
Your front 3 are the best in their positions in the world, aren't they?

Nobody, any player we sign will be a squad player but will all get time to make an impact. Will allow us to rotate our squad and give players a rest.
And dead right about the money, if we're moving to the next level then we will need to look at £20m as reasonable with £10m being cheap.
He's a good player and lightening fast and if he costs that much then so be it, let's pay it.
Shut up
Sign Musa and keep him on the bench in favour of Marc facking Albrighton?
My first thought is that he'd come in for Okazaki. Okazaki's useful but doesn't look quite as good as Vardy on several levels and can only last 60 minutes. He could potentially come in for Albrighton, but I'd hope we were looking at this guy more as a striker/number 10 rather than as a winger. We already have quite a few wingers.
He can work as a striker or a wide player in a front 3.

He's 5'6" and his goal return suggests he's a winger and his scout report says winger/forward, not striker.
His strengths are dribbling and creating chances. He used to be known for hugging the line but now has a tendency to cut inside.
If he is our hope for a striker we are going to be disappointed.
Oh and he whips in a great corner, again not the mark of a striker who you would expect to be in the middle.
Hence a few comments above I said he should come in for Albrighton...

Sorry you know what I meant to reply to Dunge.
Albrighton does a great job for the team and his defensive contribution as well as his attacking, is the reason he's a valuable member of our team.
I'm thinking more that he'd be the middle of a three in a 4-2-3-1, or the 1 just behind the main striker in a 4-4-1-1. At the moment we're struggling to fill that role properly. As I say, Okazaki has been the most effective option playing there but he's better as an out-and-out striker.
I think Dungeon is right in terms of the role we want a new addition to play.
Hearing Arro and Robben's views, I'm not sure Musa fits this bill and may take time to adjust if we do want him for that reason.
That or we'll go 4-3-3 and attack attack attack!!!
