"QPR are trying to find a deal for Jordan Cousins - but Charlton are determined to make sure that they get a fair price. The South London Press had been told earlier in the summer that the Addicks wanted around £3million for their Player of the Year.
Not bad for a league 1 player who can't pass the ball (that is irony is case you hadn't noticed).
Also seems odd that JBG is £2m (RedHenry) or £2.5m (SLP) but Cousins is seen as more expensive even given that he is English. Both had similar time in Championship but JBG more attacking and a full international while both have long contracts. JBG 25 and JC 22.
At the end of the day a player is worth what someone will pay (see Nabby Sarr 1.4m euros)
Kashi has a bit of a dilemma as he would like to play higher level, but a team will have to brave to stump up a reasonable fee for a player who hasn't featured for a whole season. I can see him going out on loan, but that will depend if Cousins goes, as we will need to replace both. I'd be surprised if the club didn't expect both to be gone, and made other plans.
Kashi has played less than 10 games for us. I know he looked decent in most of them (although he was shite away at Blackburn) but too early to be passing proper judgement on him yet.
I know I may get ridiculed for this... I honestly think Kashi is better than Cousins - Much better.
It seems fashionable to underrate Cousins. He was superb for 2 seasons and last even he was player of the year, playing in a dreadful side . He's mobile, strong and moves the ball quickly, if lacking any great inventiveness . Can't believe either he or Kashi will stay
I know I may get ridiculed for this... I honestly think Kashi is better than Cousins - Much better.
I know Kashi is 27 but if I wouldn't hesitate selling Cousins for 3m and keeping Kashi.
If I was worth £500M+ and had any real ambition with the club I owned I would probably try to keep them both so I had a Championship competitive squad if promoted in the first season, and increased my chances of said promotion.

Who's got the "it's happening" GIF?
