Potential for a lot of profit with Ake 100% this, Ake may cost a little more than Dunk or Tarkowski but he’s younger and that gives us potential to sell him on for profit in a couple of seasons or even better, he stays with us for 6/7 years and we get our money’s worth. It also follows the clubs recent plan of buying younger players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe. We finished 9th, but we've only lost Maguire. Might not be as bad as you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickbluefox Posted 4 August 2019 Share Posted 4 August 2019 Must admit would prefer Ake. I reckon he's probably worth 40mil. Tarkowski good, but wouldn't spend more than 30mil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it a rest Our team looks in good shape and if you haven't heard we're in for a replacement. While HM will be missed, he wasn't irreplaceable and the sale may afford the club to build in other positions which we were lacking and may end up a stronger team by close of the window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To quote Paolo Maldini “if I have to make a tackle, I’ve already made a mistake.” I was thinking it's something to do with that, the modern changed game and all that, just was surprised to see the stat as 1. I'm assuming I need to watch the games closer these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LinekersApples Posted 4 August 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 4 August 2019 On 10/07/2019 at 10:43, UpTheLeagueFox said: If we sell Maguire for 80m and get Tarkowksi for 40m, we'd be getting a player for half the price and one who isn't far off Maguire in terms of ability. Would rather keep HM but it wouldn't be the worst bit of business in the world. We need to get away from "He's not worth 40m" because Maguire isn't worth 80m in all honesty. It's just market forces. We pull the pants down of some clubs when selling and others will do the same to us. Merge this thread please. This comment sums up the situation perfectly. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Carl the Llama Posted 4 August 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 4 August 2019 €40m would be a fair price for Tarkowski tbh. Good idea by Burnley to get it in Euros too, that's £36.5m now but in a few months it'll be about 60. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
