I'm an Essex Owl Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Would be a very sad day indeed if he left. Amongst the top 5 Wednesday players of the last 40 years who gets me excited about watching us. i think it would be a disaster to let him go. If he has the sort of season he is capable of he could get us in the top 6 almost by himself. But it is what it is. If a Prem club came in I think he'd go. And who would blame/begrudge him (as long as it wasn't Hudds. Think he may also go if it were Fulham or Villa. Hope he stays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would like to think so but a potential 15m transfer would give a nice signing bonus maybe 1m then an increase on his wages. Can't discount that his family may want to live somewhere they deem better than Sheffield (hard to believe I know) maybe closer to London etc. Would not want him to go as best player we have had here in 20 years.

SiJ Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Quite simply, on his day, I don't think there's a better player at this level. He's a fantastic footballing talent and I hope we are able to keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 If big bids come in for Bannan or Reach it would be a shame but it would sort out our forthcoming FFP issue. I agree we should keep FF though, unless the money really is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I can see a bid coming in from a newly promoted team. We might have the same scenario as two summers ago. Defo want him to to stay though. The combo of Fessi Joao and Dave seems ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 If we are serious about promotion we cannot sell Forestieri. He is the difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 If someone is willing to spend 15 to 20 million on him, then I think you have to sell...but I hope that scenario doesn't occur. He's 28 and, despite how brilliant he is, hasn't played at the highest level. Whether someone is willing to splash the sort of cash I think we'd be asking for and match his wages is up for debate.

ES6owl Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 It’s players like nando that get you out of this league. That cross for Troy deeny to get Watford in to the PL was worth more than 15/20 million. Bannan, nando, j wow and atty are all a hand full. They all seem to bounce off each other. Chuck Kieran lee in there and Pelupessy and I really do think where challenging. Some new additions and still time for players to come good. Some of our academy players have done fantastic. It would be suicide to sell nando now.

Life will be far duller now we agree. If Luhukay achieves nothing else in his time here, he'll always have a place in my heart for this alone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
