Sounds like there's certainly an impasse at the moment

The big thing for me is we don’t need to sell for the money, so we can hang on to him (doubt we will do that) or get the biggest deal possible.
Don’t agree we need to give ultimatums if clubs are seriously sniffing around fine and there seems to be at least two then let the auction begin.
Listening to Robins last night he seemed relaxed and assured for the continued re-build so to me he knows exactly what’s happening with Gus. and will act accordingly and Gus likely know who might be heading this way.

Will this make our move for Mcnally more difficult if we sell to another club, not Burnley?
Just think a cash plus player might benefit us but if it is just a straight purchase, Burnley will slap a massive price tag on him.

We rejected the Burnley offer apparently. I think that we'd over-pay for McNally in that kind of deal anyway. I've no idea who else they might be looking at

My thoughts too, tbh. But if Burnley are trying to put a 'take the p£ss value on McNally, at least we have the option of alternatives if we gat an all cash deal. Would still like Twine plus McNally if Gus goes there.

However Burnley aren't flush with money and McNally is still surplus to their requirements. There is a deal there to be had and I think 2.5 to 3m plus add ons would get him.

Correct, they still have a financial hangover from when they were last in the Premier League. Can only see a cash plus players deal with them.

I'm unconvinced that we're intending to drop that kind of cash on a centre half at all.

This is a football club, players come players go. The team does not revolve around him and other than the last few months of the season, he has been a £5m player at best. Take the money, invest wisely, move on.

If you reckon we'd only get £5M we'd be better off giving him that in wages over a long contract.

MR now saying (what we all been saying all of last season) hes the best midfielder/player in the championship.

Why wouldnt you get him on a long term contract then!

Because from what he is saying it seems its at an impasse. Hamers agent no doubt seeing what is out there before he commits

There is obviously lots of interest.

We just gotta get on with it going round and round in circles.

He'll stay for a year on an improved deal with a release clause I reckon. If we don't go up we'll be able to recruit well from his sale next summer similar to Vik this.

He is, and should be priced as such, been reported that Bristol City have turned down £22million for Alex Scott, if that’s the going rate for the best let’s go for it.

The issue being his remaining contract length. He is worth that money but only 12 months left knocks that down sadly.

That's basically a bid of £12M if you assume McNally is worth £3m and other chap £1m. Not enough!

Looking at his stats I think it's clear that Thomas has a transfer value of zero.

Not sure how you've figured that out. Maybe our friend from @Barnsley could give us a bit more on him.

I think this is where we are headed. I think MRs comments about wanting Gus to stay " another 12 months at least" are carefully chosen. 1 year extension on improved terms with a non-promotion release clause. Possibly with a break point in January if we are nowhere near.

I suspect Gus is happy with that too but obviously he's going to wait and see what anyone else is willing to offer before making a final decision.

Robins didn't say there had actually been any approaches. Headline is the usual misleading CT clickbait shit.

“There’s speculation about Gus but it’s obvious speculation. He was the best midfield player, for me, in the Championship last season - 100 percent. He scored goals, added goals to his game and looked a real threat. Obviously he scored his goal at Wembley and then his injury cost us the final and we just couldn’t get over the line.”

He's a good defender but for that amount you'd want one that can pass the ball.

McNally was excellent and a massive step up from Hyam and Rose. If Hyam went for a million, McNally is easily worth 3 million imo

Alex Scott, I dont know anything or too much about him.

That's. Madness if true, he must have some very high ceiling/potential that has nowhere yet been realised.

Yet didnt he get in the TOTS last year ahead of Hamer too.

But what the fuck do I know about football all i can go by is what i see in person over 40 odd games.
