    Be very surprised if we were still after another CM without someone leaving

    I can’t see it but I also never expected us to spend €37m on Habib Diarra

    I think that’s too much for Guendouzhi.

    30 is about right. I rate the lad but not at ransom prices.

    That would make sense as a direct replacement, would be get much for Neil in his last year of contract?

    no way he is worth 50 million- we’ve already shown we can do better with our money

    Yeah he is quality but that’s ridiculous money. Sounds like they’ve seen he has a release clause and just written the story around that rather than us actually being willing to pay that much.

    Been getting more and more nervous about Neil. I think he is more than good enough to hold his own as our captain next season. And for all the exitement of new players coming in, a Jobe and Neil size hole is massive. Not just in footballing terms but in the team spirit and morale etc. I really dont think we can afford to lose a captain in season one.

    I hope it is just a few details they are haggling over, like release clause or signing on fee etc. If they are miles apart of salary I would have real concerns. I have said before you cant have someone like Neil miles off someone like Le Fee or Habib in salary terms. I understand market forces, and you have to pay to sign players I just think you have to pay to keep them too. If Neil is available he will have suitors and his pay will jump big time, it seems that is how the game works these days. In my mind we cant pay players lots more just because we had to sign them for big fees. If the club value Neil, and I am 100% certain Regis does, I hope he gets the salary level others do.

    All said and done, if they cant agree then so be it. Better to get a fee now I suppose, and let him leave for a decent price. He has already been a hell of a player in our rise back from the lowest ebb. Premier league promotion captain will always be remembered.

    No way is he worth that mind. Ridiculous fee. Plenty better just in Italy for that fee.

    €50 million is getting you proper talent.

    Camara
    Larsson
    Timber
    Tillman (too late)
    Thurman
    Veerman
    Ferguson
    Koppmeiners
    Santos
    Taylor

    You wouldn’t be miles away from the likes of Frattesi and Locatelli.

    We ain’t paying that.

    All CM top of my head that we’d get well under that.
