I think BTA would thrive somewhere like Stoke where he can be the main man. I'd back him for 12-14 easy there.
I'd be shocked if someone didn't come in for him this summer to be honest.

You'd rather keep BTA than Wright?
I live about 15 mins from Jubilee crescent... I can confirm DK paid money in, had a look over his shoulder and he had a WhatsApp from Dolan asking for the flight ticket back from PortugalJust seen Doug paying money in at the Post Office on Jubilee Cresent. Reckon somethings happening today!
You'd think Binks would of learnt how to defend, playing in Italy for a couple of years. I'd keep BTA and Simms to be honest. Loan out Bassette & Obikwu, and bring in a young striker to provide competition. If Frank sees a Haji as a CF, then we need a wide left man.I would expect some movement out next week, FL has gave everyone a chance and will be very close to knowing the set up and balance of his squad. I think a few will be told its in the stand or fight for a spot in squads without attitude, or call your agent to find you a club.
Obikwu potential of extended deal and loaned to L1.
Collins and Binks anything that involves the exit door.
Allen, Bidwell fight or agent called.
Then Simms, BTA and Norm anyone's guess, but cant see 3 staying.
Yes BTA as a backup squad player/sub.
Sell Hadji for a decent fee and get a quality replacement with that same or near equivalent fee who is most consistent and who has offers more to the team in terms of linking up and closing down.
Hadji has talent sure but hopefully we can have someone more reliable and does more for the team.

And Dolan Day of courseIt’s happening! Happy Pereira / Bertacini / Rushworth / Callum Wilson day everyone (delete as appropriate).
Oh piss of JodieI think maybe this is a bit of fun.
Mark owes us nothing it's definitely us fans owe him.
I think BTA is a handy squad forward. I would prefer him to stay around rather than than Ellis. It's unlikely that we will suddenly have two new effective forwards to replace Ellis or Hadji but for me that would be ideal scenario.
We're not selling Wright and getting someone more consistent that offers more for the same fee.Yes BTA as a backup squad player/sub.

Hows Rudoni's medical going?Oh piss of Jodie![]()

I don't understand this at all, Haji has contributed more goals and assists over the past two seasons than anybody else, he's one of the biggest goal threats in the league and our best forward by some distance.
BTA is a hard worker but just does not fit into the system we play, he should be moved on rapidly.
I suspect the odd construct of the binks deal, which may have looked like a good idea at the time when we thought we were investing in a future talent, makes off loading very difficult now we have concluded he is actually a likely dud. It is probably in binks' financial interest to go right through his contract like Moore. In short aren't we stuck with him?I would expect some movement out next week, FL has gave everyone a chance and will be very close to knowing the set up and balance of his squad. I think a few will be told its in the stand or fight for a spot in squads without attitude, or call your agent to find you a club.

Hadji has quite a lot of 'off' days. That's what I mean by consistency. He is athletic and fast for sure and is a good goal scorer but I wouldn't say he is a what I call an 'all around' top footballer . He might have produced more goals and assists then others at club but who knows what some highly rated forward would have done in similar price bracket. We don't know obviously.I don't understand this at all, Haji has contributed more goals and assists over the past two seasons than anybody else, he's one of the biggest goal threats in the league and our best forward by some distance.

No guarantee 2 new forward options are better than those we sellHadji has quite a lot of 'off' days. That's what I mean by consistency.

Another obviously... anyone that is an international clearly is very good.
Maybe we just need someone better than Ellis(no slight against him as he seems a likeable guy).
Selling Hadji and Ellis might produce funds that enables purchase of two overall better forward options. The way deals are arranged over a prolonged period. The chances of my ideal scenario of two in and two out are virtually non existent before season starts.
Well its worth exploring regardless in my opinionNo guarantee 2 new forward options are better than those we sell
So sell our best striker, proven over 2 seasons, to spend money on 2 or more potential duds. Glad you dont run the recruitment team.Well its worth exploring regardless in my opinion

I'm talking about selling one of BTA or Simms?
How the fuck am I meant to know that hahahahharight ….how much and to who?
My original comment was in response to a suggestion we sell both Wright and Simms then you replied with you would take that chanceI'm talking about selling one of BTA or Simms?
Apologies. I mean trying to upgrade Simms and/or BTA.My original comment was in response to a suggestion we sell both Wright and Simms then you replied with you would take that chance
He was clearly carrying an injury in mitigation. Gyokeres wasnt great in his playoff season but nothing is said about thatHaji is clearly a quality player but he has a lot of work to do to build up trust from his abject performances at the end of last season.
None of us said Rushworth and here we are.here we go, more experts on here "GO ON YOU SAY YOU WANT IMPROVEMENTS WELL I WANT TO KNOW WHO, WHERE FROM, THE PRICE, THE CONTRACT"
Yes. We've already been vindicated by the elite tactician agreeing with us that a new keeper is a high priority.None of us said Rushworth and here we are.
To be fair, Vik was carrying an injury.He was clearly carrying an injury in mitigation. Gyokeres wasnt great in his playoff season but nothing is said about that
Selling Eccles, but keeping Allen. Typical Bling.You know Eccles too don’t you, my bad if I’m mistaken mate
interesting
