FLAN Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 What would we be losing?. 10 goals and 9 assists in 132 premier league games. If we can’t replace that we are in trouble 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haywood_6 Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 Been here a while, PL winner, scored an unforgettable goal for Vichai. Still makes a few super sub appearances. I like him and I wouldn't mind if he stayed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Scott Posted 25 August 2020 Share Posted 25 August 2020 I just don't understand why most people on here seem to want us to sell all our players. Did they not notice the state we were in for those last few games of the season, we had hardly any players. We need some quality signings in who are really pushing for a starting spot & to retain as many of our reasonable back up squad players as we can (of which Gray is one) A lot of the players we would like to get rid of, sadly nobody wants them.

The reason I want to sell players like Gray is because of exactly what you have said above, we need some quality signings in the starting 11. Gray has never managed that in his time here, the commentators laughed every time he came on at the end of the season due to the number of times this has happened. Says it all.

Bossman Blessed It Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 An obviously talented player and he has shown glimpses of his quality over the past few years but I fear he's struggled so much in his confidence that a fresh start somewhere else is probably best for both parties. The frequent changes in managers/playing styles hasn't helped, however he has had the chance to impress in all of these occasions and clearly failed to do so enough to warrant a good run in the starting 11. I do hope the club learns a little from this case though. Loaning out Barnes developed his game immeasurably. I feel that if we had done the same with Gray and Iheanacho at an earlier stage, we could have two players with completely different trajectories on our hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if Gray isn't interested in a new contract? He has less than 10 months on his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason he's only accumulated that amount of games in 4.5 years, its because almost every game he starts he is anonymous and then in cameos he is much more dangerous against tiring defences. As an impact sub, I love him. If he will happily stay here as such then get the lad a new deal and know what he is good at, if he wants to be the main man then he better bloody show he's capable of starting a game and not being complete horse muck. Any bid over £10-15m would be too good to turn down with 10 months left of his contract. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we go and replace him and buy another, I don't see any reason to sell for a low amount. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paninistickers Posted 26 August 2020 Share Posted 26 August 2020 I like Gray. He's dangerous. if I was an opponent and see him.comin on as sub against you, I'd give out a groan. As someone earlier said, hopefully just agent talk. I remember Jeff's agent cooking up a similar story of him.goig to arsenal and it worked a treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(5501/90) TBF that's not terrible. About 6 goals and 7 assists over a full 38 game season. His stats per goal and assist per 90 minute game this season was excellent. I'd like to see him sign a new contract and he should have plenty of minutes this season with the Europa. We'll either lose him for a small fee or a Bosman anyway and he's proven he's an adequate squad player who has got all the tools but it hasn't fallen into place just yet. If we don't sign a RW this window then he won't have a better opportunity to force his way into the team with Perez and Albrighton blocking his path. a move upwards to Tottenham or sidewards and the scenery changes but the situation doesn't.

He is too one dimensional and need to mix it up more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems about right for the market value of a young home grown player with significant top-flight experience. Last season Webber cost 20 million. Chilwell is 50 million +. Brooks is being touted at 40 million. White is quoted at 50 million as is Tarkowski. Liverpool's 12 million I'd for Lewis was rejected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already need 1 new winger, if Gray goes then we need 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
