In a way we need a sale so we can see how the owners stand and for our sanity.
Example, we sell Clarke for £10million we’d all be concerned.
We sell him for £18million, we’d be serene.

I know people get info, but no-one will have any idea if Clarke will sign a new contract if he was offered 1.
Good. They like their lads big and physical at Shrewsbury.
Makes you realise how far weve come in the last 2 years mentioning those names
Good move for Anderson imo.
Shrewsbury have a good back three for League One with him, Flanagan and Feeney.

We're going to have to sell a player, that's likely to be a fan favourite, for a big fee at some point. We can't progress and be sustainable without it.
I'm relaxed about it though, I think a lot of fans' anxiety about a good player leaving is because they can't shake the mindset that it's a fluke that player being here and being good in the first place.
I can understand where that thinking comes from, over the decades our successes in the transfer market and bringing players on has been so sporadic that it'd be reasonable to think that it's by accident rather than design. But that's different now and that's what fans are going to need to realise when we do eventually make the big sale. This is now all by design, we have the systems, personnel and infrastructure in place to identify and bring in these gems and then develop them. It means that Stewart, Diallo, Clarke etc aren't one offs, they can and likely will all be repeated.
We brought the current squad in basically from scratch and without much wriggle room in the budget or on FFP. Imagine what can be done now all the foundations are established and if we had £40 odd million in our pockets from the sale of Stewart, Ballard and Clarke.

If Mbappe is worth £259 million with one year left on his contract, £7 million for Stewart actually looks like a bargain for someone.
Absolutely disgusting amount of money that like.
I think he’s a proper little knobhead as well, me.
Me too Teenage mutant ninja Turtle looking little nob. Class player though.
The Saudis are totally ruining football and showing which players have morals and ambition and which players are greedy and have zero ambitions.
Not just the goals either. Early signings help but wholesale player changes often mean inconsistencies, bad starts and lost points even if replacements are good quality. Especially from overseas which seems our market.
I reckon other teams watched the Netflix series and still think that’s our recruitment team nowadays - so constantly try to low ball us. 
Will show his true colours if he goes to Saudi, proves that money is more important to him than anything else.

I’d be disappointed if our players didn’t want to play in the premier league
Hed be stupid to leave. We'll be swapping places with them in less than a year. Why would anyone want to play and live in Burnley ffs
