Sell Jagielka for 10m and keep Yobo.
We'd be a better squad for it having invested the money on a winger and a RB.
Yobo wants to go. Don't want to keep a player who doesn't want to play for us.

Take 2.5m then put it down for an initial fee for Castaignos.
Surely they should just meet in the middle. 3million euros aint bad for a player that hasn't played for us for 2 years
I know this guy seems to chat a lot of sh*t but if we turned down 2.5m and then failed to come to an agreement by Sept I'd fume.
So they've offered ~£2m then? I'd snap their hands off to be honest, but hopefully we can squeeze a little more out of them. Bear in mind they have been paying his wages and have paid loan fees, so it's not like that's all we'll have got for him.

If we've got any kind of offer at all we should take it.
This. Trying to squeeze this deal for all it's worth isn't worth it because we might get an extra million out of it but the players that would be available will be more expensive anyway since as the window gets closer to the end clubs will need bigger bids for them to sell their players. I say sell him now, let him go to Fenerbahce and let us have a chance to operate in the window in preseason rather than 2 weeks into the full season running around like headless chickens looking for whoever may be available at the eleventh hour.We need to hurry this up.
Take the 2.5m now so we can compete for players like castaignos etc before they are snapped up.
good call, but wouldnt they suss it. i mean, its got to be more believable than Robsons bogus bid for rooney or we`re stuffedFenerbache know that if they leave it until August they will save near half a mill anyway. Yobo has done what we all want Pienaar to do and closed the door for any other sides to come in for him.
Personally we could do with a few friendly prem chairman putting bids in as a favour and getting Joey back to FF to give him a bit of a fright.
