All the best Jeff, been a good servant to our club. Keep an eye out for "funny things Jeff does" was a regular on our forum. My favourite being him running off the pitch when No.15 was put up, despite it being No. 15 of the opposition and not us making a sub.

Whenever I have seen Schlupp play, he appears to lack composure in front of goal and sometimes is not in control of his end product.

It's a big if but if Evra does join Palace then Schlupp might be coming in as a left winger rather than a LB...it's conceivable wouldn't you say? I really hope his coming in as a winger and we sign a dedicated left back.

Yet another Leicester fan here just thought I'd offer my thoughts on Jeff. Don't be too put by the comments on foxestalk. He has become the fashionable player for the negative posters to moan about, He has been a massive part of our recent success from winning the championship in 13/14 to the great escape of 14/15 to the title last year. In terms of his involvement last season he started the season as our first choice left back but was dropped for Fuchs after a 5-2 home loss to arsenal. He then played on the left wing and was probably neck and neck with albrighton in terms of getting starts but he then injured his hamstring which kept him out the side for a decent chunk of the season and by the time he was fully fit albrighton had established himself as Claudio's main left winger. So for the remainder of the season he was used mainly as an impact sub but he frequently came on and changed the pattern of games. Overall I would probably have him as the player who contributed the 12th or 13th most after the 11 regular starters and maybe ulloa. He still had some massive moments last season including the penalty he won and west ham and this incredible goal at Norwich away (which he started as a winger and was motm) This season he started the season injured and missed most of pre season he did get a couple of starts and too be honest was dreadful and was keeping our young English prospect demari gray out the team hence a lot of the negativity but anyone with half a brain could realise that he was playing his way back to fitness. All in all I can't see why any of you would not be excited by this he's young, direct, lighting quick, propably the most athletic player I have seen down leicester. He is versitaile can play left back, wing back or winger. I would have liked to keep him (as would Claudio, he said as much in a recent press conference) but we are well off when it comes to wingers. He is behind Albrighton, Mahrez and now gray in the pecking order and I have heard a couple of rumours that his attitude hasnt been great since falling out of favour so it is propably a good move for all 3 parties in this deal. All in all I think with a run of games and a manager who believes in him he could be a top player. Brilliant insight thank you

I don't think comparing Schlupp as a left winger up against Townsend as a left winger is relevant. Townsend has been poor on the left and has pretty much given up in that position. He is a left footed winger who has only one interest and that is cutting in from the right to try and score goals...overall I feel he has been a major disappointment after he promised so much with his early displays. The fact he cant make it work on the left shows a lack of effort in my mind. So much ability but lacking in application. As for Schlupp I don't know what to think. Playing two positions and both problem positions for us would be a big plus. I would actually say yes bring him in but at 10m it just goes to show why the club are talking about signing 1-2-3 at most and not the 3-4-5 that we probably need. Finally we are able to release Townsend to play on his favoured right side. When Wilf comes back I see Townsend as our impact sub. Our Jeff just needs to get quick ball into Benteke's head, not try to beat too many men and then c*ck up the final pass. Now we need Evra tucked in behind him and we solve our biggest problem.
