    I'd prefer us to have attacking players with an end product personally.

    Wouldn't surprise me at all if teams come in for Edwards and Charles too.

    We would be crazy to entertain that. Both have time on their contracts and are coming off through seasons. They'll both have a massive part to play for us and their values will only increase after a good season with us.

    Possibly, but I don’t think we’ll sell?
    Think with Ramsdale going along with others mentioned which I’d chuck in THB also, that would generate around £80 million. I then think one of Dibling or Fernandes would definitely leave as well, with Dibling more likely due to contract length. That would put sales up to around the £125-£130 million mark.
    But we also don’t know if there will be others wanting / requesting to leave?

    It will be how much players kick off I think. You are right that financially we should be fine with the obvious departures but if players start throwing toys out of the pram then it probably is best for all parties for them to leave. I bet all our players would want out if a PL team comes in for them, it’s just how much they kick off about it. Can see any of our players leaving if we get a decent bid

    We would need a 3rd choice.

    Maybe this is the one year option with a view to loaning out Ramsdale

    Would only happen if McCarthy was going I’d imagine? Though he could replace Lumley?

    Well, we do need a 3rd choice, emergency goalkeeper now that Lumley has gone.

    Begovic is exactly the sort of profile you want for that role.

    Not a rumour but thinking outloud so that I can crow about it if it happens...

    ...I think Ramsey will be sold and we'll bring in someone like Sam Tickle to compete with Bazunu, which I think will be healthy for the goalkeeping group.

    Haha. I'm such an idiot. Will leave it unedited as a reminder of what a terrible multitasker I am.

    Yep. And it'll also be why Leicester are linked, because their 3rd and 4th choice keepers are both out of contract.

    I don't think there's any danger of either club thinking about Begovic being a regular starter.

    I think the worry is that we have Baz and McCarthy already. Whilst we do need a 3rd, I think people want that signing to be a 1st choice to replace Bazunu rather than 3rd choice.

    Of course if Baz goes out on loan again this isn't an issue.
