Sissoko is a really good player I think. He was outstanding at the euros so not sure what the criticism is there....
Simpson to Sunderland wouldn't make sense without a replacement lined up I agree. To be honest we could do better than Simpson who had a great season but is an average prem RB for me
Grealish - an outstanding young talent, I'd be pleased with this signing. Monitored by loads of clubs
Musa is a completely different player to Ulloa so if he's sold then I'd expect to see a like for like replacement
ulloa to Swans for 10 mill!!! also a story
I like Ulloa, think we need to be careful and keep this squad together,
Rumours on Twitter we have enquired about Barca's Aleix Vidal. more than likely bull with the Simpson link to Sunderland today.
Looks like it's time for RDL to step up!
Agree with BS here.
£10m for Ulloa would be good business in my opinion. Replacement would be expected. Deeney for £30m would suddenly make that a bad deal but we look like we've moved attention elsewhere.
Don't think Simpson will go but again, not bad business if we line up a better replacement.
Grealish, oh dear god no!!

Sissoko is capable of being excellent. One of my colleagues is a Newcastle supporter and he reckons Sissoko was good for the first month of last season, let's say less good for the rest of the time. Basically he would be very happy to take the cash and wave Sissoko goodbye.
Grealish has the look of a fantastic prospect who believes the hype, doesn't fulfil his potential and ends up in League 1.
Do either of the above fit in with the tight knit Foxes squad?
Simpson - OK he's not the best RB in the league (but solid and dependable) so where is the replacement? As I indicated, more likely to be agent talk than anything else.
Ulloa - noted, but whatever type of player Musa is, at £16M he'd better be above Ulloa in the pecking order or we will risk a Krammy style flop with extras. Is Leo going to be happy with even less time on the pitch?
Musa will be competing with albrighton in my opinion. He won't take the place of Vardy and he doesn't really play a no.10 role either. He seems to have played on the wing or in the number 9 role for most of his career
I'm a fan of albrighton but I think he will likely suffer from this transfer....
Simpson has been the best British Right back in the premier league.

That's like being the better looking Neville brother...
Sissoko had a good game or two at the Euros, but has been inconsistent at Newcastle in a poor team. Not sure whether he has a poor attitude, but that team certainly has collectively. I'm also not sure that "having a good Euros" is a reason to buy a player - otherwise we might consider Hal Robson Kanu above the l likes of Anthony Martial.
Grealish is another hugely talented player, but there are definitely reports of a bad attitude here.
Not bad players, but would represent a departure from the Steve Walsh mould, which I think is what the OP was alluding to.
Ironically we are interested in Hal Robson Kanu and Walsh was scouting him.....at the euros
I think anyone's performance over the course of an international tournament is worth considering and no one is suggesting that would be the only factor
It's a good job Walsh picks the players and not the fans.....can you imagine?!
Im not convinced Leo is good enough to be playing in the Champs League for us but I would be gutted to lose him.
Grealish is without doubt a great prospect but he reminds me of nicky powell ., who is now not in the prem after coming in late for training and smelling of booze,
"Ironically we are interested in Hal Robson Kanu and Walsh was scouting him.....at the euros"
---------------------------------------------------
I've seen that speculation, but would be very surprised if the links are genuine.
Despite a wonder goal against Belgium I have my doubts whether a player released by Reading is suddenly good enough for a team in the Champions League.
But I'll stand to be corrected if he suddenly appears at Belvoir Drive.
Joby - Walsh watched Wales twice at the euros, its a player he's been interested in before.....
I think he's a decent squad option. He wasn't released by reading either, he reckons he rejected a new contract
I thought he was going for a pay day in China?
Sissoko, no chance
Simpson, no chance
Freakish, hope not
Ulloa, maybe
Kanu, we are champions of England, not Lge 1
What about the Brazilian kid at Man U like him
Grealish? Are you kidding?
We would be going backwards with this signing.
Everton after Steve Walsh to become their Director of Football?
