The poor kid was recovering from 2 broken legs for god sake, it's no surprise his pre-season was quiet. I don't think Burke et-al based their research solely on the pre-season performances on injured players.

The same window where Murray was released on a free to Palace?

Fingers crossed Bristol City start bidding for him.

if TB is willing to go to the limit with FFP then there is every chance we'll keep Dunk and probably make him one of the club's top earners. Or, of course, we'll cash in to the biggest Prem offer for a bloody good young, goalscoring, English centre half and have even more money to throw at the much-expanded FFP boundaries.

Dunk I believe has a 3 year contract, if the club decide to let him stay why should they give him a massive pay rise

To increase his value to us and thus require a higher fee if he does go.

The club have no interest in keeping dunk and just want more money...If they wanted to keep him he'd be playing wouldn't he.
They won't risk injuring him and quiet frankly know he's off wether he likes it or not

Or he is off if a magic number is achieved? Still our player but everyone has a price & with the addition to the club we are in a win win situation. Stump up the magic figure ( 6 million?) and we have a nice lump sum, no sale & we have a very good player still.
If we lost a player of Murray's quality every window but gained one of Vicente's quality in return, I would be an extremely happy man.

12 months difference.
I don't care. Even with the injuries, the basically not playing for an entire season, the weird enigmatic ramblings about Gus in the press, I would take Vicente over a fully fit and firing Glenn Murray.
Vicente is an actual football god. A player that the top sides dreamt of having for a while, a player that football fans will remember in twenty years time. Glenn Murray? A very good Championship striker.

But the reality is, we replaced Murray with Hoskins. Not Vicente.

Murray was not released on a free - his contract expired.
I'm not the one who brought up the fact that they were both signed in the same window...

As he is not in the 1st team we are hardly going to offer him an expensive renegotiated contract......unless the Premiership offer does not come in before the transfer deadline.
If I was Dunk and the club said I was worth more than £5m, I would be asking why am I not being paid a salary to match the club's valuation.
In truth Dunk is this year's asset to sell, like Ulloa was last year.

No, same window, summer 2011, all be it few months apart. Murray left in the June, and think it was late August/early September we signed Vicente as he had been released so was a free agent.
