man in the middle Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 If a premiership team comes knocking you couldn't blame him for leaving,But I hope he doesn't. I'm sure he can play at that level by the way he's playing this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dolman Pragmatist Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 I think he'd be a perfect fit for West Brom, and Olson is looking decidedly ropy these days. I genuinely believe that Flinty has what it takes for the Premiership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a dominant figure and I am not sure how some say he lacks speed - a number of his interventions are lightening quick and for a centre half he is not sluggish and is excellent at early intervention - a much more clever footballer than many give him credit for. Sell - no 2m - def no Extra year on contract and to give him a way out next year if we don't perform as hoped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunnyfunt Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Very handy in both boxes. Good recent form. I'm not surprised Premier League teams are showing an interest. He still has a couple of years to fully develop all aspects of his game. Most centre backs are not fully accomplished until around the age of 28 IMO. He can still get better.

Jack Dawe Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Mings went from Ipswich to Bournemouth for £8m, I think. WBA paid £8m forJames Chester last summer. Too much for Flinty but we want to be getting more than £2m for a Championship centre half with goals in him. It'll take us 6 years to find a good enough replacement (probably) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milo1111 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 We will want more than 2 milllion. Especially with the money swashing around in the prem now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If either team is serious and they reckon Flint can be their regular centre half then £4M or £5M would give us a difficult decision in current circumstances. As you say @Jack Dawe we won't replace him easily or quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogkev Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 He's not for sale, definitely one of our major assets. His valuation in today's market has to be higher than 4 million quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 He would definitely suit the style of play of a Tony Pulis team. At least this story is different as usually we have rumours that Everton is interested in a city player (why Everton?) In the online poll 54% of WBA fans thought he would be a good signing. I voted "no" as I don't want the fans to start clamouring for his signing. Perhaps all city fans should vote "no", though I'm not sure Tony Pulis would take any notice.

Porto Red Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 Wasn't he recently described by an opposition manager as the best player in his position in the division? If so surely we should be getting more than the £8m quoted above as paid for other Championship central defenders a year ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kezman Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 James Chester went for £8m to WBA. Flinty has to be worth the £4-£5m mark. The Mirror journalist obviously hasn't done his research properly and checked that Flinty signed a contract extension until 2019. He has 3 years left on his contract. Not 2 as reported.

Whatever we valued Harry Maguire at when we reportedly bid for him in the summer, should be where we set our minimum sale price. If we were prepared to pay £4M or £5M for him, we shouldn't entertain anyone getting Flint for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretSam Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 If the price is right, and we can line up a replacement, then by all means give the lad a chance at the big time. What's Swindle's sell-on clause? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
