Possible? I’d say likely. He deserves it too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Webster. Personally would have him over a few of those mentioned. That said you can get arguments from everywhere. Ben Mee and Tarkowski have been a premier league partnership for 3-4 years now. Sheff U fans will be saying the same things we do about O’Connell. Derby fans will say good things about Tomori. I think top championship players should make very good premier league players but it often is not the case. I don’t think many prem managers would take Webster over the ones you mentioned simply because it is so win now and proven feels safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderMB Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 2 hours ago, RedDave said: Webster is probably in the top 10 English centre backs in the country so would say 30m isn’t completely ridiculous Just off the top of my head, here are over ten that are definitely better than Webster: Tarkowski, Lascelles, Cahill, Dunk, Mee, Gomez, Keane, Maguire, Stones, Smalling, and Jones. That's purely in the Premier League. There are probably a few in the Championship I'd rate over Webster too. Webster is a fantastic player, but top 10 centre-back he ain't.

Sir Geoff Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 I know it's all about opinions but Cahill is 34 yrs old and hasnt played for a year, Smalling and Jones jeez I'd rather have Smith and Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best managers/coaches to grace this planet rates him as one of the beet Centre backs in the game. Incredible player, albeit a bit fragile when it comes to recovering from mistakes and criticism in the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think of Dael Fry at Boro. I like Danny Baath at Stoke too as well as Liam Moore. I think Webster is better than these English rivals though, although Fry could be level pegging.

Sturny Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 VILLA'S WEBSTER BID REJECTED Sky sources understand Aston Villa have had a bid rejected by Bristol City for defender Adam Webster. We are told the offer was worth an initial £12m. Bristol City don’t want to lose last season’s player of the year and value him higher than Villa’s offer.

Kingswoodactor Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 With this bid now having the potential to unsettle Webster I'm hoping that our club is arranging talks with both him and his agent this week. We need to offer him better terms on a new contract, but with a clause to say that he can leave next Summer should we receive an acceptable (agreed) bid, should we not get promotion. I'm hoping we've displayed enough (and informed him about our Summer transfer plans) already for him to want to give us another season, especially if it's alongside Kalas again.

I think 20m is the price we'd have to accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturny Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 Just a random thought. Excluding Webster, have we even spent £12m on defender transfer fees collectively in the past 10 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
