[Albion] Is it right to sell Neal Maupay?

[ewe2]

Gotta replace his goals…..!

 

[Screaming J]

Not unless we've got a nailed on Premier League ready replacement. And whilst Undav and Ferguson may become that, not sure they are just yet. So at the moment it's a no from me, but that might change come January.

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Apparently there's a delay , he missed his medical.

 

[southstandandy]

It does seem to appear his time is up with us and I'd rather see us bag £15m rather than he rarely feature this season then go for nothing in 9 months time.

I know not everyone rates him but for the figures being suggested for Ben Bereton Diaz of £12m to £15m I'd certainly take him as a replacement for Maups. Younger, quicker, taller, and a decent record in the Championship. Not a huge gamble if the fee for Maups would cover his signing IMO.

65% sensible supporters so far.

 

[Sinister Melon]

With one year left on his contract this depends entirely on whether he is willing to sign a new one for me. Would like to keep him if he is, but he probably won't score enough goals this season to make it worth losing him on a free next summer

Oops. Was for DJ Nobo

I didn’t say it was necessarily a good idea I said I could see it happening now they have your man coming in .
That was before I knew Wilson was injured tbf.
As it happens wood wouldn’t be a bad shout imo as a temp back up to welbeck. Similarish

 

[Dick Head]

Everton have got a striker.

I was one of the idiotic 25%.

Total trust in Tony Bloom, his strategy is working rather nicely.

Same. I'd never question Uncle Tony. Never. He's about 10 pages ahead of us all.

If Welbeck does his knee tomorrow we’re going to look like right muppets, no real objection to the sale but has to be replaced, and not from the kids

 

[Springal]

I’m not that comfortable with it really. This season was about improving and kicking on and I wonder where we find at least the 8-10 goals Maupay bought to the team reliably just to stand still.

Good player who gave his all for us. In Welbeck & Undav we trust

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

What's the option for 'I really don't know?' I still believe that he will get better and at age 28 /29 be a top top striker. But for that to have been realised with us would have required Potter to pick him as first choice right now in order for him to sign a new contract. And there's no way we should be asking Potter to pick a team he doesn't want to. So I guess there is no choice but to sell him, for business sense and to be fair to Neal. There will be regrets every time he scores and this thread is bounced, but if he fits Everton better than he fits us then good luck to the lad I say.

 

[Originunknown]

I'm looking forward to seeing more of Ferguson personally rather than Neal so I'm not concerned

Hoping Welbeck's fitness will continue to be managed effectively of course

 

[dangull]

I never thought a club as big as Everton would be paying Brighton millions for a player who is surplus for requirement here.

 

[Weststander]

A few days left of the window, with unprecedented sums banked, have the club intimated that there might be more business … in terms of acquiring players?

 

[pocketseagull]

I'm not sure I buy the argument that he's no longer good enough for us. I suspect the transfer is more about personality than ability. Just hope we don't regret it.

 

[The Lemming Stomper]

With Wilson injured, can’t see them allowing Wood to leave, even if he wanted to

Wilson injured...Crikey, football never ceases to throw up surprises
