While it’s best for everyone if he moves on, we should still negotiate for a decent fee There’s not exactly a queue around the block trying to sign him though so probably not got much leverage
funkyrobot Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 (edited) My abiding memory of Dennis in a City shirt will always be this absolutely outstanding pass v Brentford. Edited 16 June 2023 by funkyrobot 1 1

moore_94 Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 Probably get about £2-3m out of Torino at the most They only offered just over double that last summer after he had been on loan with them 1
funkyrobot Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 Presumably Praet won’t have the aggression, fitness or mentality to play Maresca-Ball, it’s not worth trying to demand too much from Torino. Let’s free up the squad place and reduce the wages even if it means him leaving almost for free. 1

He just wasn't as happy as Kel was, to be treated like human garbage, I don't blame him. Hopefully we get some decent coin and he can move to a team where he will actually get a chance to play. Didn't get a game because he is piss poor. A very poor version of Andy King. Move him on and accept he was yet another terrible waste of money! 2
Buzzell Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 Was never really good enough to start for us and doesn’t fit into the team. Move him on. 1

Quite easy to understand really as he has contributed next to nothing to the team in four years! We certainly won't be getting any decent coin as there are not many takers! Just getting him off the wage bill will help. 1
The Doctor Posted 16 June 2023 Posted 16 June 2023 They'll offer **** all, but assuming Enzo doesn't want him (don't see him fitting the pepball style), just sell and free up some wages. All i remember him for is being indistinguishable from Mark Albrighton from a distance and having to turn to people around to ask who's coming on. 3

Apparently enzo loves a position swap
CrazyKopCorner Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 Called into action against Fulham and clearly wasn’t fit - really poor get shot of asap 1
frany104 Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 Jack of all trades master of none, another honking buy. Get him gone! 2 1
whoareyaaa Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 Never looked like he wanted to be here after he signed, I thought he would be decent but I was wrong, has done nothing in his time here.

lgfualol Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 Very forgettable player. Hope we can get at least 5m 2
reynard Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 Needs to move for his own sake. Bound to be some kind of paltry offer but we'd be very lucky to get anything more than around 5 million tops for him from anyone. at least he'd be off the wage bill.
Tielemans63 Posted 17 June 2023 Posted 17 June 2023 I've never really rated Praet but think his treatment by Rodgers and the club hasn't been the best. Bought by Rodgers and then ditched by Rodgers almost straight away. Cast out on loan and then looking to move Torino, only to be recalled and barely get a look in. A microcosm of Rodgers and Congerton's haphazard approach to transfers. That said, cash-in ASAP. He's a very average footballer. Other than that one pass v a then-Championship side, I can't recall much else that he contributed. 1

He did not put his head above the parapet and failed to impose himself on the squad. Unless he is prepared to voice his opinions and take some responsibility of what he has been asked to do, he will never fulfill his potential. He lacks the personality to influence or impact his surroundings. Edited 18 June 2023 by sacreblueits442 Spelling error.
BenTheFox Posted 19 June 2023 Posted 19 June 2023 I feel like some of the assessments on here are a little harsh. He was decent in his first season and into the first couple of months of the following season. After that horrid injury he was basically finished with us though. We loaned him out to make way for Soumaré who was far worse in my opinion. 4

STUHILL Posted 19 June 2023 Posted 19 June 2023 I really thought there was a decent player in there, and I convinced myself that he just never got a fair run in the team (still true!) but, I have to admit I was wrong on this one. He just isn't very good and I suspect he is more than happy to leave too. Torino feels like his level and even there, he is unlikely to shine.
