robinreliant Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 £15m is unbelievable figure. AV must have more money than sense. Sorry to see him go if this is true but no one is irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin_unreliant Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Bit surprised JK isn't holding out for a prem team. If AV were unable to match what Hernandez wants at Hull maybe he could get a better deal from one of the lower prem teams supposedly keen on him?

mozo Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 I started this thread with a throwaway rumour. It then became a realisation of an unwanted, inevitable scenario. Now it's a celebration of a fantastic piece of business. To get 15m for a player that still needs to improve, who is away at ACON at a crucial time of the season... well, take the huge profit and move on!

Or maybe it was the plan all along? Saying we won't sell to a champ club , knowing a prem team may not go in for him , just to up the price? At the start of the window he was being linked away for under £10m , now look at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that, people get too hung up about that sort of thing. If SL had stuck rigidly to that we might not have ended up selling him at all and have been burdened with an unhappy player until Jan earliest. What SL said is the mindset of the old Bristol City. Principled, but naive and not very effective in the transfer market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickyrobin Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Couldn't agree more!! With JK off to the African cup of nations, that is a dilemma/ unwanted problem off our hands!

robinreliant Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 With the squad we have, losing JK isn't a problem. We are getting really clever with our dealings now. Been shafted a few times in the past but not anymore it would seem. If other clubs want to panic in the transfer window let them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esmond Million's Bung Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 40 minutes ago, Red_Wizard said: Villa have put in a bid for 20mil for Hernandez. So either the Villa deal isn't true. Or Kodjia is their plan b I suspect Villa's interest in Kodjia maybe a plan B but also a plan A to ensure that eventually Hull or Hernandez play ball with them.
