Woody1962 Posted 13 July 2023 Share Posted 13 July 2023 Just heard that Hirst has been sold for £1.5m to Ipswich, there certainly seems to be a spring clean @ King Power, more money in the pot ....... kerching. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DezFox Posted 13 July 2023 Share Posted 13 July 2023 I think it would be nice to see us in the end of a deal that we consider good. A lot of noise saying Maddison was too low, winks too high for example.. Ipswich saying that have got a bargain after initial rumours suggesting it was 4m. I know there are add ons but realistically they probably won’t go up. not kicking off but does anyone think we over pay and under sell a little bit?

Who knows the structure of any deals or how much changes hands when most seem to be an 'undisclosed' fee. The Maddison deal was possibly a crafty move to not pay so much % to Norwich. Don't know but if Winks was really £6m plus add ons up to £10m then I think we've done OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 13 July 2023 Share Posted 13 July 2023 Glad to see he has finally got away from us, it has been a disaster. Ipswich have punched miles above their weight in the past perhaps they will again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyKopCorner Posted 13 July 2023 Share Posted 13 July 2023 Lets face it we've gone from the club with the Blue Print everyone wanted to follow to one you'd not want to touch with a barge pole. Nearly every decision over the last 18 / 24 months has been utter shite. We're crying out for a new management team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is as Hirst, Castagne, Ndidi, Vestergaard , Praet etc.etc. have been dismissed on this , an open forum, as rubbish.

I know there are add ons but realistically they probably won’t go up. not kicking off but does anyone think we over pay and under sell a little bit? I was thinking the same thing. When was the last time we felt like we got a bargain or more money than we should have. Even Fofana felt like they fleeced us for what he was worth because of the way he forced our hand. We got good money for chillwell and drinky but it never felt like more than they were actually worth at the time they were purchased. Probably deserved more for Riyad... definitely did with Kante. Was musa the last time we genuinely left a deal thinking... blimey how have we got that? Does reflect overall how bad at negotiating weve been. Not sure I buy into us getting a good deal because a players not performed after they left... as its the actual moment you sell and their value in that moment that counts, fofana going on to be shit is luck rather than a good deal. The Maguire fee is the only real deal where you look at it and go, "we've had their pants down" But that was also the deal that got us a reputation of being too hard to deal with. The last fee that was actually a good deal was Lookman... and we didnt bloody sign him Edited 13 July 2023 by Lambert09 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
