We can afford to chill then, because nobody, and l mean nobody, will be putting up fifty million for Lewis Dunk.

Well, I hope not. The best player we have and one of the very few left who are actually proven quality at this level.
Plus he's a local boy.
Errr... I should have said IMHO in my earlier post. The thing is if Leicester get £80m to £85m for Maguire (as reported) then you can be pretty certain we are not going to let Dunky go for just over a third of those figures IMHO...
I hope that helps you to chill! ;-)

Exactly this, because that would mean that any of those ahead of him would be going for mad figures like 80M...
Just ain't gonna happen is it.

Maybe we are waiting to sing someone at AFCON or Copa America - which could mean a delay until July for the player ?

Well it doesn't necessarily follow that Leicester will spend their new found booty on Lewis does it? . . . I mean, there are other good centre halves out there.

Appears as if Leicester bound Dunk for 30M is plastered all over the new storefront.

Hi, Pompey supporter here. There doesn't seem much interest on the possible signing of our Matt Clarke. Most here (Pompey end) are resigned to losing him and probably to Brighton. He is far too good for League 1 and he is definitely at the very least Championship level. Is he good enough for the Premiership? Well his improvement season by season would suggest that if he is not ready now he will be very soon. If you sign him you will have a very good young player who can go on to bigger things. The thing is that Pompey do not need to sell any players so if a club comes in for one of our players they will have to pay the asking price. That is not playing 'poker' it is a fact and the club would be only too happy if the two of our most 'bankable' players stayed at Fratton Park. Some will see that as bad business by not cashing in on a player with only 1 year left on his contract but with him staying put we will have a better team for next season. If we were to get promoted next season there would be every chance that Clarke could tie himself to Pompey for longer as he loves the life round here. Some of you seem to think that Pompey should accept what Brighton have offered but Pompey will not budge unless they get a good deal.

Well at least we are 1 day closer to our 1st singing of the summer, whenever that may be.

Yes it does seem to be going very slowly for some reason as it's clear that we are interested. I don't think the price is the sticking point, maybe we're waiting to see what happens with our current CB's? Who knows.
I guess there is a chance that if he does stay (as does Jamal) then this should give you the best chance to get back into the Championship which if you do go up, could well mean both of them signing new contracts next summer!
