I agree, excellent player. Was pretty annoyed we released him at the time, he'd have absolutely murdered league 2.

He'd of had the absolute granny kicked out of him in league 2 and disappeared up his own arse.

In the 2015/16 season he was one of the few players who would actually stick his foot in every now and then.

I don't think he wanted to stay to be fair.
If that's true then fair enough. I didn't think that was the case at the time but maybe you're right.

Wonder if he'll still be here when the season opens in early August, and if so - does he play?
Very much doubt it.

I think any move will be decided around the start of July when a lot of clubs start pre-season training. Doubt much will happen for the next couple of weeks due to people being on holiday etc., but also to give the bidding war a chance to hot up.

Unless it's over £20m and significant add-ons/sell-on clauses, we're not going to quickly accept the first bid that comes in.

With the window being open from today, you would hope there may be a few enquiries (West Ham, Fulham?) to add to the Sporting Lisbon interest. This should allow us to get £20 Million+ bids.

Guess you missed him playing well in L2 & L1 for Plymouth then. Scored against us too if I recall.

Edit: Also didnt realise quite so young when we has him, just Googled and surprised to see he's only 28 now.

Well he played in League 1 to great success with Plymouth (scoring twice vs us). The idea that he can't stand up to the rigors of L2 football is laughable.
He thinks you're suddenly going to get worse if you drop down a division because they might kick you a bit more, which is a shit a take as I've seen on this forum.

How can it be laughable when it's well known that l2 is more physical, and the lad who looked delicate atbtimes in higher levels, wasn't even challenged at that level

A hat trick against NZ should boost his value and recognition.

It's pointless trying to debate with a fuckwit like you, so I'll leave the debate, and I suggest you go back to your village, I'm sure they're out looking for you.

Unfortunately it's not really a debate when one party is lacking a fully functional brain.

£5.1m would go to Brighton is rumours are to be believed, so about £12m left. I think a 50:50 split is fair.
It won't be anywhere near £5.1m.

B&HA get 15% of any profit. We paid about £1.5m? So they'd get 15% of £15.5m (if he goes for £17m), which would equate to £2.325m.

The myth that the lower down the divisions you go football is more physical still lives on.... In fact it's actually quite the opposite.

It is more physical but it’s less athletic. They are very different things.

That was the problem with him when he was here, very young and inexperienced, not very physically developed either, it’s the market we were dealing with then

I heard 15% of any profit too.

30 million for Joau from Watford makes Vik a bargain for 25

Not really.

Joao Pedro had a contract with Watford running up until 2028. He's younger than Gyokeres by four years.

Brighton have had to pay a premium for the player.

We won't get anywhere near that for Gyokeres as a comparison.

I don't think that's true. The players are stronger and the challenges harder the further up the leagues you go. The quality of those challenges and the likelihood of late and poor challenges is higher lower down.
