    Bojan Krkic has left Stoke City by mutual consent after five seasons.

    I've got to ask the question 'Why not?'

    Has any other teams shown any interest in either of them? (I mean, beyond media speculation).

    Are they wanting to stay?

    Are either of them good enough to succeed at a higher level?

    Is it a sign that the club is actually showing some ambition?



    Answers on a postcard please.

    More than enough time for a late twist ? Will be amazed if we don’t lose at least two of the three that are being touted. Coupled to that we are still seriously lacking quality in several areas. We still need another four players to make up the squad. Could be worse. It probably still will be.

    Probably the Allams have a whiff of Premier league cash?

    What ambition?

    We've had almost £11m in so far and have spent about £500k.

    As OLM says, what ambition? Any offers for Bowen and Grosicki and they will be shipped out and replaced, if indeed they were replaced, by cheap lower league players.

    Totally agree with you and OLM. I think you may find that the replacements are already here. Any deals will be done at the last minute with no chance of signing anyone else. As I say we need four more players anyway but as for ambition being shown. That ship has sailed.

    I was replying to Ernie speculating about there maybe some ambition by not selling Grosicki and Bowen.

    I think we know the Allams too well for it to be ambition. They'll say it is (ambition), but in reality it's more to do with a lack of interest.

    Some of us are probably wondering if not selling Grosicki and Bowen, along with appointing McCann and paying compo to get him, might be significant?

    We've not sold Grosicki or Bowen because nobody's bid for them, there's no more to it than that.

    Some of us aren’t, Not selling Bowen and Grosicki isn’t a decision they have taken it is something forced upon them by circumstances.

    I thought Newcastle were quoted £20 million for Bowen?
    Didn't they actually make an offer?

    No, otherwise he'd no longer be here.

    The only thing reported was that they refused to consider a bid at our asking price. Never said they had made a bid.
