Why? Eminently affordable by us. So an acceptable starting point for a negotiation. Now they're THINKING about what it would take to sell him, ACTUALLY selling him isn't such a leap anymore.

That £12M is made up by some kids on twitter.
Rest assured, they have not spoken to Wigan and do not know what Wigan actually value him at.

Says a deal is unlikely now before 11pm, but a bid was rejected.
Get him to serve wine and nibbles to your guests. While he's topless of course.

'Are believed to have made a bid overnight'.
Something he flatly denied earlier, having contacted his 'Wigan source'.

He reckons £7-8 million minimum, so the £12 million figure guestimate value probably isn't far off.

Maybe. But that's the key word anyway.

That's roughly where i'd end up as well in terms of valuation - any more than £8m and you're just lining their pockets.
However, this is easy for me to say as it's not my money. I only have Haribos at the moment.

Andy Naylors answer to the above. Sounds like a game of poker to me.

Seems like he is not getting full story. We were pretty much told no more business....then this happens overnight which is generally denied by AN, then second bid and again not much from AN... obviously we are very interested or we would not be submitting big bids..question should be how far will we go...

Also, this so late, what about medicals? We know how fastidious we are about medicals on new players, just seems too short notice?

I am still sticking with we will sign him for around 8 million and then loan him straight back, medical can be done by any number of teams up north with very good reputations he does not need to come down here.

The club are obviously trying to make one last signing and at this stage they are not going to be giving Naylor any titbits, he knows as much as the rest of us.

Would he be 4th choice midfielder, or would perhaps he be the backup to Gross? Considering we don't have anyone naturally to assume that role...I know Kayal/March could but it's not their primary role.
