That’s him gone then, I reckon it will be £12-15M with add ons and if he goes to a top six club possibly a loan back. If he ends up at a smaller club like Wet Sham we can forget the loan back <ok>

If he is as good as you all claim he is (This is not an argument I must add) then selling to someone like the Spammers will probably work out better for you in the long run.

Stick a 25% sell on clause and if/when he gets sold to Spuds or Chelsea you get another payday, which would be more valuable than having him for another 15 matches

This is Norwich City FC we are talking about here !! Our sell on clause would be akin to "can we have our pen back please".

Thank you mate.

Bled through the night so got an appointment this morning. Been cleaned up, it's finally stopped bleeding and I've had a jab as well. Just seriously bruised and painful. But at least the nurse said I did a good job of keeping it clean. Got to go back Monday to make sure it's not infected. Thanks for the messages guys.

If Maddison ends up being a deadline day type big deal, surely other clubs will get involved. Teams like Liverpool and Spurs who missed out last time. You have got to be holding out for over £20M. I'd go further towards 30! This market has gone mental, and we need to take advantage of that like everyone else selling does. Otherwise, we keep our immensely talented young future England star!
Pleased to hear that your foot has at long last stopped bleeding and hope the pain eases soon.

Sorry KIO, but when JM IS sold, I'm with FML and we should hold out for £20M+.

Is Edwards on loan from Spurs? As I see it, we have four permanent signings this transfer window with one loaned back.

Here are the ins and outs:

IN:
Edwards (Loan)
McLean > (Permanent, but loaned back)
Hernandez (Permanent)
Srbeny (Permanent)
Leitner (Loan)
Power (Permanent)

OUT :
Pritchard
Jerome
Naismith Loan
Wildschut Loan
Martin Loan

Four permanent signings in, but one loaned back and one for the U23s. Two loans in, with Leitner a possible permanent deal in the summer if it works out.

Two permanent sales out and three loans out but back in summer unless they turn into permanent deals.

Though these deals happened separately I'd guess that the overall shape had been planned in advance. DF was spotted with Hernandez way back and possible striker deals were in the background all along. DF coached Leitner at Dortmund, so I suspect that was also planned ahead.

With Maddison doing so well, Pritchard could be sold (and he wanted to go) for £11-12m plus £2m in add-ons. Jerome was also sold for £1.5m plus £.5m in add-ons. Those sales, plus the wages saved on all 5 players going out, provided enough money for all of the incoming players to move the restructuring on. Later installments will provide money for more restructuring in the summer, without having to sell first.

Some of the overall profit may go into the general budget, but a large portion should be available for new players, given the emphasis on football needs being the first priority.

Great post Rick and EVEN the General has gone quiet

IMO, great work by SW/DF and let's hope that we start to score more goals (or at least make the opposition keeper do some work)

I remember Moritz Leitner being very highly rated 4-5 years ago at BD but then he seems to have dropped off a bit. Hopefully should still have plenty of talent though

I certainly think he's got something. As long as his attitude is right, and can adapt to English football.
 
I think his head coach might be able to help him with the language :)

DF worked with Leitner at Dortmund, so hopefully they have a good base to start from. If it goes well, the loan could turn into a permanent. With his Bundesliga experience, Leitner could prove to be a brilliant signing. Hopefully the same will be the case with Hernandez and Srbeny!

Sorry, only gone quiet due to being snowed under at work and even more so at home.
Good to hear FML' s foot is on the mend, great that we finally signed some players, though I would trade them all for Pritchard.
Fingers crossed the newbies work out, they all sound potentially useful.

Bah!

Fair enough General and we'll just have to 'agree to disagree' on that one!! <ok>
