Ross Stewart contract talks

I honestly don’t believe that

 

If we get 15 million and we reinvest that in 2/3 quality players then thats better than letting him run his contract down

 

It is if we can find another forward as good, like we did him

 

Aye thatll be so hard as hes unreal. I still remember folk saying how would we replace wyke when he left then stewart stepped up

Just need to trust there is a plan for when/if he leaves

 

I know this buy cheap and sell for a profit is the club's apparent way forward but I would be distraught if LND was allowed to leave in the next 18 months.
There's not many I'd be upset about leaving but Ross is a diamond and where would we find another.

 

Be prepared. He’ll be away, no doubt about it.

 

We'll see, I've got everything crossed hoping he wont.

 

how about sell him on the condition he does another year here to give us time to coach another

 

Like we did when we let Maja go? We ended up with Grigg

 

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush?

 

£10m plus DCL part ex.

Everton already have DCL and Maupay, I'm not sure it's the right move for him.

 

I said quality signings lol - our recruitment is so much better now than back then so can't compare to when Maja left

 

Get him back in the side after the world cup and hopefully he carries on banging them in, if he wants to go in the summer then shake hands and take as much as we can for him. Contracts mean nothing anyway, even if we improve his contract and the money is still put on the table for him he can still go. I would be gutted but he probably has one chance at getting his premier league move and its looking like it will be before the summer.

 

Sell for £30 million and have a £6 million buy back clause (like Cirkin)

He'd start for any team in the Premiership barring maybe 5 or 6 for me so it's inevitable he's gonna get attention from higher up. If we do sell I'd hope it was for big bucks but we wouldn't be able to replace him with better. In my opinion of course.

 

He's a top quality striker who I do think could play at the top level, however there's always a question mark over whether players can make the step up to the Premier league and Stewart has played well in half a dozen games in the championship. I know he's 26 and will want to test himself at the highest level but it could also backfire on him and if he does go I don't think it will be to a top half Premier league team either were chances will be a lot more scarce than what they are now.
I think it was super Kev that was asked the difference between the championship and Premier league and he said in the championship you will probably get 5 chances with 3 seconds to decide what to do in the Premier you are lucky if you get 2 and you don't get a second to think.
That is an absolutely massive difference to a striker

 

He’s a very good player but that’s a huge claim…

 

I love Stewart but no chance there's only 5 or 6 teams he wouldnt start for in the PL. The PL is a huge step up from the Championship. Out of interest which were the 5 or 6 teams you were thinking that he wouldnt start for?
