Bit concerned Bournemouth had a 4m rising to 5m offer for Ben Davies turned down.

Now they turning to other CB targets..  got a feeling Iorfa will be on that list.

 

If we get a good offer and  turn it down it shows we have not learnt a thing. 

 

10-12mil I'd say is his price with add ons adding another few million

They have money after selling Ake to City for £45m and various others.

 

Just think he is the type of player they would go for and we should sell if we get a decent offer.. not that i would

want us to -  but a very good fee with a good sell of fee would be hard to resist, for a player signed for next to nothing.

 

We have Chey coming into contention soon along with Lee's (this season) / Borner and Van Aken and then possible Monk may have another target.

They also have huge debts that need paying. Alot of the players didn't have relegation clauses in their contracts. They are now trying to pay premier league salaries with championship income, albeit with parachute payments

As much as I love Iorfa and no way want to sell if £10m plus comes in you have to sell unfortunately. 

To be honest, if we want promotion  Iorfa is the last player We want to let go !! He is key to everything we are trying to build !!  UTO

Agreed but we cant afford to turn money down for any player at the moment, we need to be savy get top prices with allthe usual add ons.

 

We have got into this mess by not selling and as tough as it is to accept we must sell when the money is right, its the only way we can progress long term.

It’s all about opinions ! It’s ok having the money but to replace him like for like, it will end up costing more !   UTO

We have to learn the lessons of the past 20 odd years otherwise we are just doomed to repeat them. 

 

If a player is at their peak value or overinflated we need to consider selling. We could well get our transfer fee record for somebody like Iorfa, and we bought him for peanuts. 

 

We cannot afford to let every single player who is worth getting good money for run down their contract. The amount we have lost by not selling players is probably eye-watering, and we are in very much the position of being relegated this year because of it. 

 

We have to get over this culture of being terrified to let anybody go, or be a 'selling club', it's holding us back, and that's in evidence of where we find ourselves now and for the past 20+ years.

The reality is you sell high and find , develop other talent, there is absolutely no alternative with current financial rules.
