Do you think he'd go on £40k a year straight away....plus he might have bigger ambitions with all the talk of Liverpool and Chelsea wanting him

He's not going to get much more playing for Brighton - and he's under contract. Sulking, or throwing his toys out of the pram, would harm his reputation and may make prospective big-time buyers start questioning the risk.
As said a bazillion times already, why would he leave the Albion while he and it's head coach would be a marriage made in heaven.
A year or two under GPott is exactly what he needs right now.
Why does he get a well said, a few of us have been saying that, to the hard of thinking, for months.
Ha, fair.. well it’s hard to keep track of everyone.
Can we all agree then that selling Ben for 20 odd million in the summer is a bad move.
Boom. Exactly.
I’d love to know how thought through this loan was because it really has turned out incredibly well for us.
We have a potential £40+ million ball playing defender coming back to us this summer, and who knows maybe even a future England player.

Speaking to a Chelsea fan in my local here in Spain. He reckoned Chelsea are in for Lewis Dunk. Now I have respect for him, he was calling for Frank Lampard back in March. I thought he was mad at the time. Turns out he was right, I think.
I informed him that it wouldn’t surprise me cos he is a childhood fan of Chelsea and you can have him cos we have loads of centre halves.
This is pub banter and I have since thought that I really don’t want to lose our leader and captain. It’s good that other fans appreciate him though.

Are you thinking of Tinto de verano? No I was on the brandy! Just pub banter but it amused me.

I would be asking £35M now plus £35M after 30 games and plus £30M after 5 England caps

Agreed, it’s every young lad’s ambition to play for Leeds Utd. There is a moral imperative here.
We need to keep the hopes of every youngster from Brighton to Barnstonworth alive.
Too right, especially as it is only Bielsa's training that has brought his talent out.

Not seen such Bravery!
Obviously check that Massive don't want him first.

I could see an initial fee of £30m with add-ons. Not anything like as much as that though.
Be incredible to sell a contract for that without a player seeing a first team league game though.

Evxery bit as much as that - and more.
This is where TB's gambling comes in, isn't it. We could sell him for £35M now - but we'd rather have him back playing for us for a season or two; if he finishes up fulfilling his promise and taking the PL by storm and joining Maguire at the heart of the England defence we'll get twice that amount for him, if not three times. Of course, if he flops at PL level (not that I think he will) his value will go down, and we'll regret not chucking him out for £20M now. That's the gamble, isn't it.
I vote for playing the long game - bring him back to us in the summer and put him in our team. Take the risk; there's £50M+ to be won!

No it would be incredible to see him in the stripes.
Why do people want to sell him?
