EssexOwl Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 £1-2m we have to sell. Bigger financial issues demand it - always thought he signed as a favour in the event of being relegated. BB does not belong in league 1 - imagine the squad we will have and him trying to ping it all over to someone who is not on the same wavelength. Not going to happen.

You think if they wanted him so bad they would just offer 1m on the last day and then just leave it at that? especially since they just got 20odd million or whatever for Watkins? They arent a club that messes around with transfers, look at what they are prepared to pay for players like Toney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I feel BB's time at Hillsborough is over, and he and the club probably knew that in January when he signed the new contract. Fair play to him that he has probably sacrificed some sign on fee for the club getting a transfer fee. He's been a great player for us and will be remembered for a long time, when lessor players have faded. We now need to move on and for that i wish him all the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the Chansiris favourite player , they don’t sell family 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They arent a club that messes around with transfers, look at what they are prepared to pay for players like Toney. I don't think they wanted him 'so bad' at all, your words. They did however table a monetary bid with him out of contract in the summer. If a very good play off team were willing to pay £1m in Jan, then he'd have had numerous offers when out of contract, possibly at sides lower down in the league, still makes his decision worthy of bringing up.

He is tidy with the ball but needs to make allowances for those less so, just as they have to accept he is no good as defensive cover and can't win headers like they can. Moore or whoever needs to work out a more shared way of playing and it could even end up with BB becoming more creative and more involved with the goals. It is much harder to play in and around the oppositions box but he has to be encouraged up there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luongo has only looked in a couple of games and looks like a poor mans Hutchinson but more injury prone and more likely to be sent off. However BB was still dropping deep when he played just like in recent games playing in and around the left back area. Would the overlapping centre backs at SUFC been as good as they are if Norwood came to take the ball off them every time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
