In other news - where the feck is our new signing?
Wasnt it meant to be within 48 hours of the Bury game and before Cheltenham?

I'm slowly but steadily merging with the few on here who've stated "I don't give a shit who we buy whilst the Belgians are in charge".
Completely and utterly deflated after that on Saturday.1 -
"If Lookman goes even at £3 million it will be bad business. By the end of this season he will be worth £4 million at least."
But only if we are back in the Championship. Can't see anyone paying £4m for a League 1 player.

They will if he is good enough. With two of the best sides in the Premier league in for him it has set the benchmark. If he plays a few more games and does well the price will go up and also the interest. £2 mil is pocket money to both these clubs and suggests to me they're more scared of missing out on potentially a great player but don't rate him that highly yet.cafc-west said:"If Lookman goes even at £3 million it will be bad business.

Lookman, played 26, scored 5. All in Championship. You would be happy with £3M.Swisdom said:
Seen lots of comments on Facebook slagging the club off for taking £2m........yet the only source is a tiny column in The Sun.iaitch said:Who is actually after Texeira? Seen rumours he's going but no mention of who wants him.
BBC website this morning says Arsenal and Liverpool battling over Lookman around £2m mark.
At the moment Lookman is nothing more than a punt. He's very young and very raw. Undeniably talented but not the finished article. He will improve with regular league football and that's probably why people are reluctant to shell out just yet. He has no release clause so we don't need to take the first offer BUT we are never going to get £8m-£10m as we feel he is worth because he's only played about 20 games in his life.
The daft truth is that at £3m he's a cheap risk and that sort of money would be accepted by the club. He doesn't want to leave but I am not sure he'll get a say in it. His agent is, I believe, really pushing him to move and likely to be the reason for additional column inches
Walcott, played 21, scored 5, all in Championship. Went for £5M initial, now paid £12M after add ons. This was about 10 years ago.
The Ox, played 36 League One games. Went for £12M initial, up to £15M with add ons. This was about 5 years ago.
I reckon the CM at Man City (who went from Leeds to Villa) was about £8M from League One - Delph.
Since those sales TV money has probably gone up by a factor of 5 so you could make a compelling argument we should be getting much more.

So to me £3million now is worth more than £4million at the end of the season...ShootersHillGuru said:

£1million could be used to fund a very decent new CM with say £400k on wages.
That equates to £1.6m in Roly's pocket.

To clarify I did not say I'd be happy with £3m. I think he's an unbelievable talent. Unfortunately the £3m figure is more realisticAthletico Charlton said:

At least it looks like Fox will not be going to West Ham, and although I am probably in the minority, I am pleased

All really good examples of the transfer fees you can get when your business model isn't developing future premier league players.Athletico Charlton said:

I thought we would have realised by now that the fee is irrelevant when you sell players for millions and replace them with loans and freebies no one else wanted.0

Exactly, if you set yourself up as a factory then you will receive low-end prices - they are not needed for you, you will take the offer. Set up a quality team around them and people need to pay to snatch them from you. It's the way it works. £2m or £3m would be bad business on our behalf. Real bad. So expect it to be undisclosed and we soon find out we scratched £3m including add-ons.SurvivaloftheFittest said:

I don't buy into the whole "Stealing a living" concept, they're good at football, football has a lot of money, they get paid well. Pretty simple maths.Chrissy\\\'s Army!! said:

That said, Agbonglahor is, and always has been, pretty dreadful at football. He's certainly quick, but he is not good at football.5 -
He's got ridiculously fat1

Fat and over the hill - but free and desperate. Sounds perfect.3

What happened to today's signing? Slade sounded pretty confident it was nearly done.2

I think it could have been magennis, but Kilmarnock have seemed to turn the bid down and have now offered him a new contract!BigRedEvil said:What happened to today's signing? Slade sounded pretty confident it was nearly done.
