    To be honest I thought £2 mil was a bit of a derisory offer, he's started 2 less games for Swansea than Harrison and Forshaw, and played 12 hours more football than Clarke this season, so in today's over valued market, I would say between £5 - £8 Mil is right , given that he is more than just a fringe/bench player. I think we were just being cheeky, and sometimes by being cheeky that bites you back, and my reaction to any similar offer to for a Leeds player would be tell them where to go and add a few more million onto what I would've realistically valued the player at.

    It's one of the few things Cellino got right when negotiating the McCormack sale, selling a player worth around £7-8 mil for £12 mil, after receiving an initial offer of £5 mil.

    Also have to admit I misread the tweet you included as I thought it was a further £10 mil including add ons, and now see that it read £10 mil plus add ons, so can understand your point a bit clearer now, even though I still felt that we were trying to pull a fast one with our initial offer ;)

    Saints Striker Charlie Austin has rejected a move to Cardiff.

    Rumour has it he wasn't convinced by the mode of transport Cardiff were going to supply.

    Roberts is cover for no 10,Clark 2nd half for Harrison,and James for Hernandez or Alioski,although prefer Alioski as Left back.Either way,it gives us game changers on the bench.

    Are you kidding... The amount of crocked players we sign he’d have to arrive with a leg missing to fail his medical.

    Sky commentary team looking at if James is a good signing, they seem to think so, they say he prefers playing on the left and again they go on about his lightening pace and how he likes to take players on. Once he manages to break into the team it’s going to give the opposition something to worry about

    not allowed to put a solid fence up by the look of it.too much going on with the vegetation hedges and trees.would have taken the light away from them.

    Prolly true, knowing council rules. But they could have put a fence up a couple of metres in, or put in a hedge. Why bother though when you've got the cops on speed dial for loiterers?

    Yeah, bit of a weird one, Phillips dropped in favour of Forshaw!

    My take as WJ knows James reminds me so much of Gento and you can't get a better accolade than that Watch video clips of the great Gento Real Madrid then wat ch Daniel James we have got ourselves a bargain Pace to burn and 2 footed I cant wait to see him
    See Vydra has gone on loan to Forest so Burnley have lost a lot on himand Scott Hogan who impressed me at Brentford has gone to Sheffield U
