I think the risk would have been factored in. I.E. we wont be selling him for 10million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 1 minute ago, BRISTOL86 said: I think this lad plays as a defensive mid/deep playmaker not a number ten like Palmer or Sammy. The usual sources have him down as a defensive mid which we’re absolute crying out for. He looks like a true box to box player to me from what I can see. Yeah hadn't seen that he's more of defensive midfielder. Going by an article I read he sounded like a more forward player. Seems odd that a player so highly rated has pushed Monaco to accept the bid. Maybe we are getting a wider reputation for developing players and giving them a stepping stone which he's seeing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the profit on 20 million? 30 million? 40 million? Because if this kid has one good season with us, that's the sort of figure we would be able to command.

General Zod Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 7 minutes ago, Hocca said: Clearly not a centre midfielder is he, looks like another Palmer type player but exciting none the less Looks like he plays a lot deeper than Palmer. A centre mid who is quite versatile, can screen the defence and pick a pass? It’s a big price tag for potential especially when we are watching the ffp pennies and other equally expensive positions need strengthening. It’s a big part of the budget on a player who hasn’t played many league games and would need to be eased into the championship gently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshtonRobin21 Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 This is how to reinvest the money from the Webster sale. What could prove to be an incredible piece of business by Mark Ashton. £8m for a player who has lots of time to develop (could be worth a fortune in the future) and has already played in the champions league. Take a bow. I would be incredibly excited to watch this lad, could take us to the next level and certainly fills a position I feel could do with being upgraded. meanwhile in the English market, £8m would get you a bang average journeyman who has never found their feet in the prem. The report said that the player has asked for this move as well which is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Robin Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 25 minutes ago, RedRock said: ... but not as bang average as our forward line. Its our midfield which makes our forward line look poor and also our defence. Strengthen that midfield and the defence and the attacking threat will improve.
