We are selling a player who would currently not pass a fitness test for £10 million. Yeah teams do that all the time.
As the old sying goes, If bullshit was music we would have a brass band.

Before football forums and people being able to get hold of rumours quite so easily, that is how it was.

This forum was not full of "I hear this player has signed" as a wind up etc

To be fair, it’s just a windup.

Least we had a genuine rumor before it. God knows this place needs some signings

Bit confused what is a so called joke and what is genuine rumour. Got my hopes up thinking Wright could be off for £10m. Going by his performances following his injury (exception of hattrick) I don't think he is worth half of that.

Still a while to go but let’s hope bling actually backs frank with at least 1 or 2 quality signings or even loans. We’re so close but we need that final quality to get us over the line and need to get some of the dead wood out. Big few weeks ahead

And yes Kesler Hayden is obviously the Milan replacement so we needed to bring someone like him in before he gets sold

We literally finished top 6 with him in goal
Click to expand...
The main reason for finishing in the top 6 was the ridiculous run of 9-10 wins in 13 or something like that when Dovin was in goal. If Wilson or Collins are in goal until the new year, I don’t think we’ll be in the playoff conversation around the new year. Just my opinion. I know Wilson won the golden glove in 22-23, but we had not 1 but 2 cheat codes in Hamer and Gyokeres.

Not to mention 5 defenders and 2 defensive midfielders protecting him.

If 7 of your outfield players are protecting your goal, then it's hardly surprising that you keep loads of clean sheets.

Even Collins would keep clean sheets in those conditions!




Well maybe not Collins. But you get what I mean.

He wouldn’t have said anything would he as not to play into any rumours. Don’t see anyone paying what the club will want and believing everything anyone tells them.

I had Wright down at £12m, I think £10m is underselling him a bit considering his record and contract length.

It’s a little odd that fans think going into next season with Wright, Simms, BTA and Bassette isn’t good enough and we need a new striker whilst also suggesting we go with Wilson in goal because he’s an ok keeper.

We are weaker in the keeper position than any other part of the pitch with Dovin absent.

I think the genuine rumour was 2 in soon and Wright off before the end of August. Everything after that was “banter” !

I tend to agree but £10 million is the best part of a 30% profit. I hope we can get as much as possible though of course

If he wants out of course then his value drops regardless. Two seasons of a goal every other game and your money back (including wages) isn’t to be sniffed at.

Tbf, everyone keeps listing the 4 strikers like that, but Haji Wright is doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting in that list. I'd agree goalkeeper is a bigger issue with Dovin out but I hope we can do some recycling up front too.

There’s no way we let Wright go for £10m. An international, on a long contract, good age profile and a proven 20 goal striker. We should be busting a gut to retain. But if we can’t it’s got to be 15-20m

Lampard made it clear from his team selection in the play off games that Simms is not his man.
Unless something has changed his opinion since then its fair to assume that he's actively looking for a quality striker.
BTA and Bassette (currently) are not good enough to hold down a regular place in a top end Championship team.
