Benalouane could be like a new quality signing if he is fit. A better CB than Figs and takes no prisoners. If we are stuck paying 30k a week (having taken on his Leic contract) we might as well use him for a season. Arguably the best CB at the club.

So good we conceded 2 to Port Vale? 33 now and never really played regularly anywhere, useful cover maybe but not sure why you think he is our best CB?

I get your points, but just want to say as far as we can tell he wasn’t on in the second half when we conceded. Though not sure about our first friendly.

Anyone know why we're hiding our pre season games? Seems a bit odd

Taylor wrote that the games are more like training games than classic pre-season matches. That could be a reason.

Jan-June 2019 mainly. Him and Milo were decent. 33 is no age for a CB for this season.
Just saying if we are paying 30k a week, I'd rather see him playing than Figs based on what they have shown themselves to be capable of whilst at Forest.

I thought Big Ben had a bit of the monster about him.
He and Milo dealt with a lot of the fault lines that curr Nottingham seem to plague our current CHs.
I don't recalled them getting bullied.
A fit Ben I'd have over Fig.

Why did Leicester pay...£6(?) million for him..?

My eyes are f’in terrible and I’m only in my thirties! I know back room staff went paint balling too and I can pick out a few players but if anyone has any notables they can see let us know. I’m sure Watson’s there!?
And there’s no way I can analyse the highlight vid either!
