Wouldn't be shocked to see Lavia withdrawn from tonights squad at late notice. If Liverpool have decided he is their man they may not want to risk any injuries. Especially if they know they are willing to pay our valuation eventually.
JWP is the only one that I think will go that I'll be gutted to lose. I don't think he would be that tempted by West Ham if we had stayed up, he clearly has decided he will not play below the prem which is fair enough. I hoped he would give us a season to get back up, like Noble did when West Ham went down, but doesn't look like it.
Rumours that Burnley are still in for Tella and trying to sort a deal this week. Alan Nixon has tweeted to say that a deal is closer as we have targets we want to move onto quickly now?? Lot of Burnley chat saying they’re getting closer to the £20 million asking price??
Getting to the point Wilcox should just send all incoming transfer calls to a pre recorded answer phone message along the lines of "You know the price. Pay up or **** off". Liverpool's stance being particularly bizarre as they have let basically all four of their CDMs leave in one window, presuming Hendo and Fabinho leave as expected. But without any signings in that position, everyone knows they need at least 2/3 pretty urgently.
West Ham also linked to McTominay. If we hold firm it looks like JWP will cost a similar fee to McTominay & Gallagher. Hopefully West Ham prefer one of those 2 as they have. A few years on JWP
