    Gyokeres

    Do you think he is only worth 2m? The same has been said about players like Toney. Some are good enough and others are not. He has the attributes needed in the Prem. Nobody knows how he will do. But he has a decent chance of being at least average. That's the gamble. Yes he would be up against...

    Gyokeres

    Of course they wouldn't build a side around him. But they would build a side much better than he is used to. And you're right. He wouldn't be their only outlet so wouldn't have so many players watching his every move as they would also have to watch what the other talented players are doing...

    Gyokeres

    But not having to get past several players frequently by himself. VAR would also help him. He would get his top ripped off his back much less. Prem defenders may be better but they get away with much less.

    Gyokeres

    Have you considered how easier it would be to have more team mates of the calibre of Hamer to help him?

    Gyokeres

    What value did you put on him a month or two ago? What other club has got in contact with us with a solid offer? Dictate and disrespect? So where did that occur? All he has said is he likes the idea of the only club to put in an offer and thinks our valuation is a bit high. Just like most of...

    Gyokeres

    Gyokeres is selfish? He has a contract with us. He has always given 100%. But he is free to turn down any offers given to him. He can't be forced to join a club he doesn't want to go to. He can't be forced to play in a country he doesn't want to live in. If it is us trying to sell him it is us...

    Gyokeres

    Dublin had it written into his contract that any offer over a certain amount gave him the right to talk about a move. They offered £1 over the amount.

    Championship thread 23/24

    That certainly would be like going from Nice to Nasty.

    Gyokeres

    Each position higher up the Prem table is worth about 2.2m. Gyokeres could easily be the difference of just 5 points over a season. Everton were safe in 17th position. If they had 5 more points they would have finished in 13th. It would have been worth nearly an extra 9m. That could be about...

    Gyokeres

    And if he was available for free what club wouldn't be interested in him. It would be instant profit as well as a very good prospect. Can't see anything happening for a couple more weeks at least unless a club sees him as their main target and want to beat everyone else to his signing.

    In the silly world of Prem valuations it would be about right. If he was owned by a Championship side his valuation would be much lower.

    Middlesbrough

    The relegated teams will most probably look totally different at the start of next season. They will bring in a lot of new players. These players will then need time to settle in and get used to the way their manager wants them to play. Burnley did excellent with a new squad. The other two...

    Things that annoy you

    Similar thing although totally different here. Sat nav on my phone. Have an old Volvo with a sunroof. The sun nearly always shine here at this time of the year. You can't see the screen. When I turn the volume down then back up it does three of the four bars. But it doesn't do the Sat Nav...

    Transfer Rumour Panzo coming back?

    A couple of seasons ago Gyokeres was said to be not good enough by many on here. Not too fussed either way with Panzo at this moment. The main reason being we see the players for less hours than those who run our club spend days with them. If they think he is good enough and don't break the...

    How much do you expect us to spend?

    10m to 15m. Closer to 10m if just Gyokeres is sold and closer to 15m if Hamer is also sold. This should leave a fair bit towards the higher wage bill. But it could be less depending on any clause added by Brighton. The problem we would have is if we sell Gyokeres for a large amount other clubs...

    Hamer Leaving - Palace?

    Most of the time a transfer is made we are the last to know. Same as for most clubs. Palace have a strong midfield already. Hamer wouldn't get much play time there. Eze has just been named in the England squad and Olise has just had a great season. If he goes to the Prem it would most probably...

    Hamer Leaving - Palace?

    Staying up late because you're not back at school until Monday morning?

    Hamer Leaving - Palace?

    What ridiculous post? Must be ready to answer one of your own. You don't seem to have a clue about the difference between the Championship and the Prem. 1 more goal in more games against players of much lower calibre. Eze would absolutely rip the Championship sides apart. Hamer is good enough...

    Hamer Leaving - Palace?

    So 11 goals in the Championship is better than 10 in the Prem? And is that including 46 games in the Championship against 38 games in the Prem? 9x4=36 9x5=45 so nearly 25% more games in the Championship to the Prem. You been taking lessons from Grendel? 🤔
