Gylfi worth £50m ? Not on your life. But we must get the most we can, £30m is more than enough and i would not pay that for a player who has failed in a top club before. He looks good with us because he is the best we have and does not take much to shine but if he joins a club with better players then he would be a bench player after a few games....We need to keep him but Gylfi will have a lot to say if we scupper his £130,000+ a week wage offer.... This is not the end of this saga by a long way i feel...

Well Everton want £50m for Barkley, Stones went for £50m and Pogba £90m. On that basis, you could argue that he's worth £60-£70m as he's levels above all three of them.

£80m for Gylfi, Mawson and Llorente would allow us to seriously strengthen the team in defence and attack.

Of course, it depends on Clement getting the full £80m to spend. Imaging how strong the team could be with 4-5 real quality signings. It would also give us serious depth as 4-5 starters from last year would end up on the bench.

Would it ? We would lose 3 players, and replace them with 3 lesser players (probably). It makes no sense to me to sell our best players in order to strengthen.

Would Llorente's replacement be a 'lesser' player? He's what, 33 now? Father time could hit him first game.

Keeping Gylfi is crucial imo. But, if we could get, say £50m for Mawson and Llorente, I'd cash in on them.

I wasn't saying I would do it, just thinking out loud. But we have to look at parachute payments and if relegated he would be sold anyway so wouldn't have his wages.

Tbh, as long as Gylfi and Clement stay, there's no trouble of this happening imo. The man has the class to get us out of the $hite and Clement has shown he knows how to fire up the players when it's backs against the wall.

I dont like the idea of selling Cork , but there seems to be no room for him . He will play well elsewhere if he goes IMO but Mesa , Carroll , Siggy , Fer, Britton , and Ki will be tough for Cork to break through . Going to be our loss more than his..BUT 5 or 6 million profit will soothe the pain

Ki also did better than Cork in the final run of games too, which surprised the hell out of me.
Plus Fulton is still there.
