the frampton balti Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Lets face it ......its looking increasingly possible that albert will go. We need the money dont we, plus we dont want another maynard situation. I reckon 6 mill would do it ...10 for the pair would be nice , giving delboy a fantastic opportunity do build his own team. I think there may be a few surprises this january .our scotsman doesnt strike me as being the predictable type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmersonsKev Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Yes we need the money, however we need Championship football more. For me if/when Albert goes it will be in the summer and not in January remember he signed a long contract last summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me if/when Albert goes it will be in the summer and not in January remember he signed a long contract last summer. It was more of a wage increase than anything else as reward for his brilliant form last season. He has two? years remaining after this season I believe.

AtyeoRed Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 What price Albert? at this moment in time hes priceless. He is the best attacking option we have at the moment, as Maynard wants away. 6mill for albert are you nuts? you got to be looking for Crazy Money if someone wants him that bad, do'nt forget Liverpool paid 35mill for Caroll, and he can't get a regular place in the starting line up.

I just dont think the board will accept another maynard situation . If i was on the board I wqould accept 6 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtyeoRed Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 According to a previous post, his contract still has two years to run. Also albeert is a Raw Talent at present, in the hands of the right club who knows what he could become, or who he could end up playing for, I would hope to get replacement money, not do someother Club a favour.

Spike Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 The idea of getting £10m for both of them is a bit hopeful in my eyes. I think we'd take anything above £2m for Nicky to ensure we break even and even then I can't see that happening as any sensible manager will wait until he's out of contract. With Albert I think we can't afford to sell and even if we did I don't think we'd get £6m for him as unlike Nicky when he was firing them in Albert in no so on the radar as Nicky was. Personally I hope we hold onto both of them, even if it means Maynard goes for free as I think Nicky will still play a big part in our survival if he stays, Albert cannot be sold unless we're admitting we have no desire to stay up as he's our star player right now.

petehinton Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 the thing is with Albert - who else is there that we can replace him with? He's one of a kind: refreshing, loving every second of football he plays, and very grateful to be where he is. What other footballers are there like that?! And his type of style is dying out, no more out and out wingers left imo apart from the Lennon's or Bale's who will actually attack the wing back and go past them, rather than gather the ball and pass it sideways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 He signed a new contract in the summer that'll keep him here till July 2014, therefore I don't think he'll need to be sold this January. Maybe the summer, maybe not? http://www.bcfc.co.u...2358703,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tins Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Gary Cahill, England International defender, proven prem player, wanted by top prem clubs, only 3 years older than Albert, is 7 million. Adomah surely has to be less, 5 million MAX! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtyeoRed Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 To be honest if Maynard is going I would like the Club to at least get something of their investment back. Pitman, although a different style of player to NM seems to know where the goal is, when he gets the chance he knows how to take it, so we may not miss NM, but we would certainly miss Albert.

Red-Robbo Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Was reading the Saints forum and a number of them say they should make us "an offer we can't refuse" for Albert. I think the chance of Prem League football + £6m would secure him. But of course, I don't want that to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say Cahill Defender........A club will pay more for a winger with pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was comparing quality and experience more tbh. Here are wingers bought by prem teams last summer: Chris Eagles, 1.5 million.

I have to disagree, Routledge was a star player for QPR when he was on loan there last season. People always knew of Wright-Phillips class, and Eagles was always one of Burnleys best players.

Gabriel Obertan, 3 million Shaun Wright-Phillips, 4 million Elmohamady, 2 million Wayne Routledge, 2.9 million And this is why we would never get £6m or anything close for Adomah. No clubs would be stupid enough to offer it and we don't want to sell. However if Adomah wanted out then I think we might invite bids of around £3-4m for him. Wingers just don't go for that much from Championship sides. The exception to the rule has been the 2 ex-Southampton players Alex Ox-Chamberlain and Theo Walcott.
