All good... I don't know figures in terms of what we've offered him compared to what he's likely to get elsewhere. Wouldn't surprise me if he could get $400k+ elsewhere, and we're offering $250k.yes thats why its a discussion and I don't care about the second point or first point.
its the fact that its not really what Ben wants,but what clubs are prepared to offer him and what do we do and get for him IF we let him go?
Its discussion and thats it, but its intriguing on what people think.Welcome to the world of blood sucking managers and little loyalty between players and clubs.
Really IF our original offer to BEN is not modified he will be left with little option,but to leave.
Which then to me the club is at fault for under valuing his potential.
Remember its opinion
Every half decent player probably has the opportunity to earn extra money by moving clubs each time their contact comes up. I'd be offering Ben a fair contact (maybe around $300k - based largely on the promising signs over the past couple of weeks) and expect him to sign. If he doesn't, then that's on him. We just can't go matching contact terms for every player whose "blood sucking manager" fields offers, so it's obviously not a precedent I'd want to start with Ben.
