Transfer Discussion Thread

Talk is you guys are desperate to sell him for the 40m positive hit on PSR. Apart from Reece James is that all of your academy products sold off if he goes?

No. Still pretty of academy kids coming through(there was 7 in this mornings squad).

I think Chalobah and Maasten will go before Connor anyway.

And once it turns to February he's a 40m pound HG bench option. Not worth the outlay.

Yeah I dunno, he'd still be decent depth that can fill a number of spots.

 

[chef]

He stands out because of the trash around him. He is a decent player for a mid table team but shouldn't get a game for a top team.

I guess we are talking about him going to Spurs, not a top team.

You are right, if we are getting Gallagher we aren't even aspiring to be a top team and just accepting mediocrity like Chelsea seem to have done since Roman left

Cheffy throws shade and Hawky says no son

Yeah I dunno, I think be a great squad get for you guys. I hope we don't sell him as he gives his all, another MOTM this morning.

As a cheap 6th option in midfield maybe but you don’t pay 40m for a 6th option in midfield

If the Asian Cup was in the off-season no doubt he keeps playing

Why?

 

[hawkman]

Why?

Because he is a key player in promotion chasing Ipswich. By going to the Asian Cup he would risk his place in that team. Probably some influence from the club as well

I would assume he's retiring because he hasn't been selected, rather than not wanting to go. Think Ipswich would be fine without him for a few weeks.

Termination? Thought he'd get sold.

Would be a bit wary when a player pulls out a season like this out of nowhere at the age 27. Has a bit of a 1 season wonder feel to it

That wasn't the mail, he was apparently going to be in the squad (who knows if he would've actually played).

I totally understand why he's done it.

 

[Memphis]

Thank the lord.

If he's a key player to them he goes straight back into the team upon returning. Like others have said perhaps he isn't getting a place in the squad and has decided that will be it for him at 31. If they do get promoted I don't reckon he will get a deal with them in the PL. He'll probably join Perth Glory as he almost did in the summer window.


I'm pretty sure for example Son isn't risking his place in the starting lineup by going to the Asian Cup.

Strange, I don't understand it at all then. It's not as if Ipswich would stop playing him and he's only going to miss a few games at most for them.
