If they really ARE going no higher than £15M cash for PEH alone, and want £10M for KWP, then £5M for TA - I would accept that valuation. That's Spurs' valuation, however. I would value PEH at £25M, KWP at £5M and Toby at £10M, so I'd like another £10M in readies. However ... Let's get whatever deal done, get clarity and move on.

SuperSAINT Posted 28 July, 2020 Posted 28 July, 2020 Crikey, that last bit: And, like many clubs, Bournemouth also have outstanding transfer fees to pay for a number of players, with the club believed to still owe £81m to other clubs with only £5m owed to them on deals.
SNSUN Posted 28 July, 2020 Posted 28 July, 2020 19 hours ago, Harry_SFC said: According to SSN we have been "alerted to the availability" of right back Ryan Fredericks from West Ham. Weren't we linked with him on a free before he went to West Ham? I believe West Ham's top target is Matty Cash from Forest, who we were linked with earlier in the year. (And who would be a decent right back signing.) I'd be surprised if we went for anyone other than KWP though, unless Ralph feels Valery isn't the answer at RB and we end up going for 2 new ones! I see we're still being linked with Zeefuik too but he really doesn't want to come here!
Nolan Posted 28 July, 2020 Posted 28 July, 2020 @LeG game of play your cards right. Subjectively, are we talking higher or lower quality than Tomori, in your opinion?

CanadaSaint Posted 28 July, 2020 Posted 28 July, 2020 I don't get some of the CB names being mentioned here. Sure, there are some really good players but do they fit Ralph's style? Because we press high and push our 'full backs' forward so often, we're better off with 20% less talent and 20% more speed and mobility in our CBs. Vestergaard is sooooo unsuited to how we play because it exposes his lack of pace. Stephens and Bednarek certainly have their limitations, and need to learn when it's time to stop the me-to-you/you-to-me stuff, but they both have decent mobility. Yes, we need another one or even two but I don't think they'll be in the 28+ age group.

le_tiss Posted 29 July, 2020 Posted 29 July, 2020 Southampton have agreed terms with Las Palmas on the fee of left-back Jeremi Rodriguez (£400,000). The 17-year-old flew to Southampton yesterday, so his arrival at the club should soon be announced officially.

Going slightly MLG on you here, but, we were in 14th place when that Echo article was published so by finishing 11th we've effectively got an additional c.£6m to play with, which goes a fair way to offset the difference between the valuations of Zeefuik and KWP. That said, the club could have been basing their summer spending budget on finishing higher than 14th anyway, so who knows... Edited 29 July, 2020 by trousers

Turkish Posted 29 July, 2020 Posted 29 July, 2020 Ollie Watkins is some player, he’d fit right into our system too. We probably won’t get him as not a priority position and they may well come up. We should try and recruit their scouting team though.

SuperSAINT Posted 29 July, 2020 Posted 29 July, 2020 FOUR PL SIDES CHASING BROOKS Newcastle are one of four Premier League clubs keen on signing Bournemouth winger David Brooks. Crystal Palace, Leicester and West Ham are also interested in the Welsh international, who looks likely to leave Eddie Howe’s team following their relegation to the Championship.
