    3m is a minimum fee for me. However I'd much rather we loan him or Krul out. He would seem the logical choice for that role given Krul is now the dutch national keeper. Harps is still better than them both for me.

    Apparently, you've already had a season long loan approach for him a couple of weeks ago, from Hull City.

    I would loan to Norwich again (if they want him) to give him some PL experience

    I think this should never be an option with him having experience in the league and internationally(yes 2 games, but against a great team and a decent team, as well as a bunch of Under 21 games) unlike Forster.

    I think one of them has to go on loan though Jonny. It'll never work with all three at the club. As I say it makes more sense for it to be Forster. Of course another key issue is what is the contractual situation? Is either Krul or Forster due to run out of contract at the end of the season or the one after? The club have to be cute in that regard to keep both happy and under contract. In my humble opinion the one thing we shouldn't do is push either into the first choice role. I don't think either has yet proved themself better than Harps.

    Not true.

    That Charlie Adam fellow is worth a fair few pennies.

    Both Krul and Forster have said that they want to be No 1 or they will go. At least one of them will have to go, and that's assuming that Harper agrees to go back to being No 2.

    The only money on the table is for FF, so I suspect that Ashley will accept the offer, or try to push up the price. Either way, I don't see FF being at NUFC next season.
