London maybe, but players sign for Citeh or Yanited despite Manchester, not because of it. Mancs shout a bit louder than most but Birmingham is the second city in more than name only. I've worked and lived in both Birmingham & Manchester 2000-2002 and again 2019 to 2020. Birmingham over Manchester all day long!

Sheff will buy him for 15m and he will be worth 25m next summer but he is only worth 10m. Out valuations are based on an FM07 save game. It is embarrassing at this point. How much do you reckon Ollie McBurnie is worth right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie McBurnie is rubbish though. Matty Cash is a decent player. Edited August 28, 2020 by Villan4Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is young will improve and is at a team that is stable and imo assured of PL safety for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much the same team as we had in the championship and Micky Mellon has us playing with loads of effort and pressing. We've been well organised but are just missing that bit of bite up front because our star man (Lawrence Shankland) is carrying a knock Could I introduce you to Scott or Scotty Goal as we call him......

Even if that article said what it said, we still don't know anything. Most of this stuff isn't real. It's nice to read a few rumours while we wait for something concrete, but they're not worth getting frustrated about. Not quite true. We do know we haven't signed any players. We paid £11m for Konsa last season - so unlikely to get Cash for £10m IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul514 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 First time this window I have seen a paper say we have actually bid for someone 10m for Matty Cash rejected they want 15m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 13 minutes ago, Spoony said: There’s more to an offer than just the cash. She’d Utd might offer £12m or whatever but Notts might not see that £12m for years. The clubs also have to think about the structure of payments and that’s going to also come down to the club’s credit. £10m in the bank today might be more appealing than £2m in the bank today and then being owed money for 5 years or whatever. But most transfers aren't paid cash up front. Most are paid by installments. So the headline figure is pretty important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntrimBlack Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 5 hours ago, VillaFaninLondon said: Fair enough but the thing is we'll never know what exactly went on unless the player in question speaks out. It has been pretty common knowledge we are/were interested in both players and they represent(ed) really good value for money. And now we will probably overpay on someone else not as good so there you go. That is all conjecture again. And again insulting the club without any basis for what you are saying. Let's wait and see who they buy instead of hanging them with the worst scenario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudevillaisnice Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I think Guilbert is fine personally, certainly more pressing areas that need addressing. That said I don’t understand why we would offer £10m when it had been rejected before (albeit by another club). Not entirely sure on this story. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trippier would have been great but that's probably not happening. If we're looking at RBs Clyne is available on a free which would be a decent signing imo. I'll start getting excited when we sign first team quality players which I thought we were planning to do as soon as the Spam game confirmed our survival.

That said I don’t understand why we would offer £10m when it had been rejected before (albeit by another club). Not entirely sure on this story. i think the issue is we have 2 decent full backs (Targett & Guilbert), but their backups are either old (Elmo), or rubbish (Taylor), so some decent competition is probably a good idea tbh. would be happy with Guilbert and Cash as our RB's, also remember that Cash can also play right midfield if required. (prob not advisable, but do-able if required) Im all for Cash if it doesnt negatively impact the more important positional signings we need (ie: LW, RW, ST & MC) I quite like the idea of: Cash - 15m Henry (or other LB) - 10m MC (who?) - 20 - 25m Swift - 6 - 8m Benrahma - 25m Raschia or Buendia - 20-25m Watkins - 25m pretty decent for 125-130m i reckon? (would love Edouard......but prob not realistic tbh) Edited August 28, 2020 by MaVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
