    Normally when its out in the public domain they will go back in with a counter offer. I assume it will be DJ or SEB, along with Geddo?

    He is out of contact in the summer, so it wouldn't be a massive fee ?

    It looks as though they want marlon king so if they get him they'll probably let SEB go. Having said that, it seems they want to keep him but he's out of contract in the summer.

    It also appears palace want him. I'd certainly prefer him to DJ.

    He's certainly a big unit. Someone the likes of Prossie, Aluko and potentially Geddo can play off?

    Wolves want £1million for him. Out of contract in the summer, he's there top goalscorer this season (11) vertually got them promoted 2 years back, didnt get used in the Prem. Scores goals in the Championship for sure. I'd take him!

    I think anywhere between 500-750k would be suitable for him. £1mil is a lot of money to say he could walk away on a free in a couple of months. Having said that, whats the price of promotion?? Would SEB miss the chances our current strike force have??

    £250k in football, nowadays, is nothing. Believe it or not!

    They want a seven figure fee, they've already turned down bids from us and Palace and Sky described our bid as sizeable.

    Surprised you havn't really gone for a top, top striker.

    We got a bit lucky with Wood, with him being a bit of a punt he could easily have failed like he did at Bristol and Birmingham.

    Not that I really know who's out there, but it seems that DJ Campbell and Ebanks-Blake are not what you're looking for.

    Would love to see SEB at city, better option than DJ in my opinion, 5 years younger and much more of a physical presence which is definitely lacking in the whole squad. Also the guy can finish, i say go back with an improved offer and do everything to get him on board, think he'd be a great addition.

    DJ is probably the best striker left whom we could realistically get.
