2022/23 Anthony Gordon

Sell on clause a necessity, just to soften the blow if it turns out he isn’t ?.

So he can go to the barcodes and we get Fraser in part-ex. Great . (n)

Could have sold him for 50 million but lampard is a fraud and decided to keep him against his will. Now he’s under performing not hard to see why. Lampard is a fraud

No one offered £50m

To be honest, I still think it needs to be around 40m or more to sell in a January window. Especially since we know Newcastle have the cash to pay it.

And a clause for a sell on too. His ceiling as a player is very hard to determine. I could see him becoming a 70m pound player in the next 2 or 3 years. Equally I wouldn't be shocked if he ended up in the championship.

20 million pound player if that...take what we can get then reinvest.

If it's 30m, we should be taking it.

Have we learned nothing since the summer?

I agree but if we can fleece Newcastle of 35-40 million. It would be great.

Too low for me if Newcastle are bidding

LocalNative · January 20, 2023

£40m and he has to go. That's comfortably above his valuation.

We don't have time to mess about.

We need players that contribute to goals, ASAP.

To get those players, we need cash.

I agree with need signings, but I don't see anything to suggest Newcastle have even bid, and there is still no reason to sell players for less than we could possibly get. £30m probably only gets you one really good attacker in this day and age.

We can't sell a player until a good bid is on the table. I don't expect that to happen until the summer.
