Ethan Galbraith could be a good cover at right back and midfield. Huddersfield, Charlton and Swansea have had bids turned down already this summer.

Can’t see us paying the 2.5 million asking price for a cover player

In the grand scheme of things that’s not a massive amount of money in the championship. Would be great to keep Milan and get someone like him in

We paid around that for BTA and Bassette.

Read something on X that we are in for Alfie Gilchrist. This would fit both RB and CB cover

As long as we keep Milan I don’t mind who we get in as backup

What if we get a great fee for him and can sign 2/3 players to replace him and strengthen other areas?

Goalkeeper is a priority due to Dovin injury.

We’ve already signed a left back. One of the current lot has to exit.

We know there’s a high chance MVE goes and that means x2 required in that position.

We need a top class CB in my opinion.

We need an attacker like that Italian dude we’ve been linked to.

Some strikers will be on the way out. Need to replenish.

Raid Chelsea by maximising the 4 loans from one club rule…

Mike Penders on Loan
Alfie Gilchrist permanent deal
Marc Guiu on Loan
Tyrique George on Loan
Omari Kellyman on Loan

Piss the league. Summer done

If we sell Milan and get Kesler Hayden and say Galbraith then that’s not too bad

George is firmly in their first team squad now and Gilchrist was struggling for time 2nd half of last season and Sheffield United played a midfielder in his position.

Considering our depth of squad has been a weakness two seasons running I don't see replacing two with one as progress. Allen will bring in very little money. He is a good squad player, a model professional and an example to younger players. He gives us valuable continuity. I can see him staying.

sounds like we were saying now to 10m in January but yeah around 15m and then 5m on KHH would give us good replacement and an extra 10m

I'd keep Allen, covers a few roles to a decent enough standard and as you say will not be on loads for this level. FL also says the way he trains means he can come back in after an extended time out the XI and hit the ground running.

Anything less than 14/15 million is an insult, he’s the best right back in the league

Enough to replace him and get a couple of other players. Nobody wants him to leave but the reality is this is the best time to sell him for maximum value. Leave it a year and he is into the last 12 months of his contract and theres no chance of getting north of 10million.

If they intended to move him on they wouldn't have triggered the extension in my opinion. They would have just let him find a new club.

Has 2 years left. They could always just wait and hold us to ransom in 12 months i guess.

Nobody is paying 15 million for him even if he had 4 years left. Just isnt happening.

But then they dont get a fee. Same with the Shipley situation.

we could take 12+ million now or we could have the best rb in the league and have another real go at promotion at the risk of selling him for half of that next year it’s a difficult choice, glad i’m not the one making it

Given your contract length question he now has 6 months less than that alleged bid so is therefore worth less

Some people doubting the fee, he would be going to a mid table premier league club if it is fulham and you don’t get mid table premier league players for much less than 15 million these days

Nah, we are not a position where we have to sell players and there are rumoured to be more suiters this summer.

The fee would be negligible. If they wanted him moved on they would make it as easy as possible for him to move.

Sheaf to Travis is a massive drop off, let's be honest. Only thing Travis has over him is fitness.

if we can find away of making a Grimes/Sheaf midfield work then you stick with that.
