Don_Simon Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 If, as conjectured we need to sell a Crown Jewel in the summer. If we get good bids, relative to the players value. Who do you sell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 I unfortunately think it’s going to be JJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Don’t think Martinez will leave Emery won’t let Torres go because he’s the player that Emery wants to be build around. If Torres was sold I’d be worried Emery would be leaving. Watkins we’d be bonkers to sell because the lack of alternatives in a sellers market for that position. McGinn will be close to 30 by then so wouldn’t get value from sale Luiz, is too expensive to most teams and Emery focuses so much on him, I think he’s integral to his plans So JJ for me, he’s young, all profit, would be desired by many teams so a bidding war could happen without it needing to be a Luiz level fee and if we lost him it would be a big loss but it wouldn’t be so detrimental to the team that would take us two steps back. Hope it doesn’t happen and we can just sell fringe players but given the discussion that’s my thoughts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) If I were forced to choose from any of those, it's Martinez or Luiz. ( Not to PL teams either ) I refuse to sell McGinn, JJ, or Ollie ( As if I have any say in the matter ) I actually feel Gauci has potential to be a star.

DJBOB Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Luiz even if it is at a 'discount' 70M price. Luiz has been incredible at not discussed enough is his Watkins-like availability with his injuries. But - there are a score of #8's who can probably bring 75% of what Luiz can do and maybe develop even more. Emi and Watkins are complete non-starters for me because replacing either of them would be a miserable experience. JJ is a close second but I do think his unique skill set is crucial to how Unai wants to play. There are a smaller list of players with JJ's skill set. It's been no surprise that we have looked remarkably more effective with him in the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez, Martinez and Luiz are the very last two I would sell. So many teams struggle to get a quality keeper and struggle for years/decades and replace goalie after goalie paying fortunes…we have one of the best in the world. Look how many years it’s been since we had a decent keeper. Get a world class keeper and you’ve won half the battle…no chance he would be even on this list imo. Gauci is a total unknown at this level to even offer that he could be a potential star. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Out of players listed above, Ramsey would be the one but I’m hoping it doesn’t happen. Actually surprised Konsa doesn’t get a mention? Bought for a relatively small fee but potentially large return if sold. Again, I wouldn’t welcome it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are trying to safeguard not just next season but the one after that. Newcastle made CL and they still had to sell Saint Maximn to Saudi land for about 25m to balance things up with FFP, if we sold all our unwanted squad players I doubt we'd reach 25m so likely to be one big hitter you suspect. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grantholtgolazo Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 JJ valuation would be at its lowest in years now considering injuries/form. Has been a rumor for a bit but doesn’t seem like it could bring in half as much as other names. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
