OldNick Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 No, it means we get £40m+ if he wants to leave next summer, instead of about £15m.That isn't good news for me. It maybe god news if you have a financial gain by this. Contracts mean SFA and so him signing one does protect the asset for the club but it doesn't mean he wont go in January or next summer. Sorry if I cant get too excited by players signing long contracts but its the cynic in me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I cant get too excited by players signing long contracts but its the cynic in me. As fans we do. It's like saying we might as well have let Lallana go free because we don't get any money. If we'd done that we wouldn't have been able to buy Mane and Tadic. It only means SFA if you pretend there is no connection between finances and whats on the pitch. Under Poortvleit our bank balance was quite apparent on match days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Pete Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 I actually think it seems more likely that if we sign anyone today it would be a CM rather than a CB on the basis that Lemina seems nailed on to leave over next couple of weeks, and also rumours of Reed going out on loan? That would surely leave a space for a signing of some sort at CM even if only a loan. Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said it's not going to happen anyway but I certainly won't be writing him off entirely. He'd be an improvement in dm on what we have imo.

I get why we aren't normally keen on loans, but in our current situation, a couple of loans of experienced players in key positions until we can afford perm signings could make a big difference to us in my opinion.

Dusic Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 Fantastic news about Redmond, and well deserved. Protects the value of an asset that must now be worth about £50m in todays market. I would be very suprised if Reed went out on loan. Without him and Lemina, our midfield numbers look very light, Hojbjerg, Romeu and JWP (who has never really suited that position) plus Smallbone and Slattery. Getting Austin out on a perm would be good, as presumably not paying any of his wages then. Just seen the Notweigan Journo whose articles were quoted here yesterday saying Mboro have made an offer for Moi (presume loan). By the end of the Aug window our wage bill will be quite reduced.

Saint Matty 76 Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 The tweet says "concrete bid" so I'm kind of hoping it's a permanent offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 8 August, 2019 Share Posted 8 August, 2019 Makes more sense - be leaving us far too exposed in that area if it was our Reed. If we get rid of Harrison Reed, one of two of the true defensive midfielders in the squad, we might as well resort to long ball if Romeu gets suspended or injured. It’d be madness. Central midfield is weak enough as it is without losing another one, especially with Lemina on his way. We will concede goals galore. I really can’t see any incomings now with under 4 hours to go.
