Hafnia Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Yes it looks like we might have a bidding war. Would rather sell to man city than United or Chelsea. I'd take demichellis on a free though, solid backup defender to Mori and jags. He'll be 36 this year and his legs have completely gone - no chance mate. Sooner play galloway.

markjazzbassist Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 That's far too much money to turn down. "If we had Jags, Mori and Galloway as back up and we had £100m to spend in the summer - would you be happy if we spent £60m on stones?" My answer is "no chance" - spend £15-£20m on a top quality stopper and use the money to buy a left mid, playmaker and CM. I still think stones will be quality but I think Mori is going to be way better than any of us expected. A solid manager and he could be everything stones is supposed to be plus he has goals. I'd like to keep stones but won't be upset if he leaves. I do think one veteran backup CB to rotate would be good though. Hafnia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like someone who has won a competition to play for the club they support in a friendly. Hafnia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlblue Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Selling to Man City would be the best option imo, get Bony as part of any deal and id be happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 A change of manager, should it happen, and we could see Stones potential come to fruition here. I'd love to finally see that happen with one of our players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacs Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Don't think he would need much help to fulfill that potential, just a few tweaks and some good advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to finally see that happen with one of our players. This for me also I've previously said my thoughts on how I think he's been poorly man managed by Martinez, look at how well Bilic has handled Reece Oxford who's not half as talented.

We need a manager to come in with a reputation of success that gets the players fired up. I have no hope that we'll keep our up-and-coming stars otherwise. Bobby has been too easy on these players.
