Very well regarded by Leicester, looks very lightweight but a classy player despite being about 5 foot nothing I hope it is him and not a different player in the videos as this appears to be where it has stemmed from. I’ll be ok if it’s Luka Modric instead tbh

Foxes fans seem adamant its him (not Modric ) and they must know their own player? One saying the loan doesn't make sense as he should be playing at a higher level such as FGR and suggest its a 6 month loan in L2 then he moves up to L1 in January, which seems to be the way with most of our loan signings lately.

Leicester fans view on Braybrooke. Swindon seems an odd choice, surely someone like Forest Green who are newly in League 1 would have been better. Unless he's doing a half season in League 2 and a half in League 1.
A decent team relative to the league is potentially a priority for the club, so he plays in a more possession based side. Although surprised because I thought there were rumblings on here he was going to Oxford on loan for the season?!
Not convinced a loan for Sammy B is the right pathway for him. He’s a player who is built for Premier League football and I think slow exposure to the league and being in the first team for training sessions would be more beneficial for his development. He is so similar to the likes of Modric and Verratti in play style and I just fear that he’s gonna get bullied in League 1/2 at his age and with his stature.
He going to learn more from playing 10-15 league games at L2 than getting an odd couple of minutes here. Going to the lower league will be an eye opener, taking him out of the comfort zone of being pampered at a PL club, it is as much about developing him off the pitch as on from my POV.
I thought Swindon were League One, yeah that's odd he's going to a League Two side. He's way better than that level.
If you are right, and I hope you are, might be a good way to introduce him to men's football by getting him acclimatised at a level he'll be accomplished at and feel confident at.
Maybe it was agreed end of last season when it looked like they were going to walk the play offs and then didn't!

If he plays in the style of Marco Verratti then he's not going to get bullied in L2.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change? Crap!

How about taking a punt on another striker from Poole Town.
Tony Lee had a phenomenal strike rate last season - 36 in 37 games
Torquay are wanting to sign him. Surely we could outbid them at least!
Signing a striker from Poole... that'll never work

He has actually score 46 from 48 games for Poole, albeit 13 were penalties, they all count. Hes 26 though and never bagged many goal before last season so probably wouldnt fir into the model of young player.

The quality of play in that clip is atrocious. No tackling whatsoever. I know you can o it beat what’s in front of you but it will be tougher in league 2. I suppose we can afford a four foot nothing player to replace Payne.

Tbh, with Reed and McKirdy only having 1 year left on their contract the ‘model’ says we should sell both.
Another unsuccessful season and they’re free agents and we’ll get jack shit for them next year this time.

Some wag has changed Payne’s wiki page to him joining Orient.
