All true. Our list will be of people we should be able to afford though, bar last minute changes of plan/increased offers elsewhere. Another reason not to sell him.
We don't know that he wants to go yet. The club will be talking to him right now, I am sure. 3 quality players, yes, but will they score goals for us? Finally we have found someone who can and now people call for us to cash in on him. If his head has been turned then yes, I would agree with you...
Quite. I would much rather have a player in the squad we know can score goals for us than 7m quid in the bank. We have already let barnes and Hoskins go.
