Harry Maguire was one of the players I'd have liked to have seen us go for, along with Kamil Grosicki from Hull.
£17m is a risk, as he's still unproven in many ways - but has all the right attributes and is really good on the ball for his size too. Think Pulis could've improved the weak sides of his game and made him real quality.
Big sign of intent from Leicester and they aren't the only ones, Everton are really going for it and the promoted teams are active. Hudderfield have already agreed a £10m fee and they're virgins to the league.
It's funny because we're linked with players like Giroud, Oxlade Chamberlain, Carvalho, Smalling etc, but we just know we will not get them. It's always the same old story. Despite Peace going, the stigma seems the same as ever. I hope I'm wrong and the new owners show their worth, but I think we can expect a couple of has-beens and unproven Championship gambles as usual.
