Luke Thomas - Hoffenheim interest

[FoxesWalk]

I don’t understand what people are seeing in him, but get him the F out the door, id take a fiver never mind five million.

[mod hero]

He leaves for free in the summer. Just take it Rudkin you ****ing weasel

[Soar Fox]

And this is why we struggle to sell anyone unless it’s a big money move. 
 

They did the same a couple of years ago with rejecting bids for Daniel Iversen by trying to squeeze every last penny out of Crystal Palace for him.

 

You watch we’ll end up rejecting more offers from Hoffenheim and they’ll move onto other targets. We will give Thomas a new contract and then loan him out for the next 4 years or he’ll leave for free in the summer.

Could we finally be seeing a bit of a clear out…

[Devonfox1884]

Hopefully it’s just a case of not accepting their first offer, which would be sensible - as long as we’re not making ridiculous demands - which is my worry

[UniFox21]

If we aren't going to use him, may as well sell. Profit is profit, and provides position for an academy product to step up 

[RedSoxUK]

It's good of Jon to actually start doing his job, keep up this pressure and we'll be elite in a few years.

[adejo92]

I'd take 5 quid!

[VLC86]

Surely no chance they offer 5m but if we turn it down…  

[KFS]

Jon are you ****ing restarded? SELLLLL

[les-tah]

I think this has absolutely took the club by surprise as we have already stood all the scouting team down anyone involved in transfers and now they might have to come up with another wild excuse not be able to spend the €25 million it could potentially give us.

I don’t get why we don’t sell, especially from a PSR view, as we now have cover with 3 FBs - Coulibaly, Justin and Kristensen. 

[Dr The Singh]

Is April fools day?

[Pliskin]

That’s like someone offering someone £20 for a packet of discos, sell him, **** me!

[dmayne7]

Is this actually legit? Screenshot looks a bit dodgy for some reason. 

 

If it is, then it's mental we wouldn't take it although maybe that's because we have zero confidence in being able to get a replacement in, which would tell you all you need to know about us.

[KFS]

On a serious note, the Mail article about ridiculous haggling completely in effect here, isn’t it. What on earth does he value the kid at if 5m isn’t good enough and would make for a 25m PSR opportunity?

And Ricardo when he’s back. That gives us 4 full backs - all 4 can play on the left and 3 of them can play on the right. We are absolutely fine in terms of depth there considering the situation we are in. Get the money in to strengthen in other areas.

[Ric Flair]

I still have a soft spot for Thomas but he'll end up leaving on a free so just take the money and reinvest. We will run doing this twice with Iversen, don't do it again.

[ronnup]

Get him gone ffs

[Skidmark]

He had the world at his feet when he broke through. 

 

Confidence issues have plagued the lad. Wish him the best if we sell. 

[Safestandingfox]

Pure profit which could prove so valuable on someone who isn't first choice.

I'm all for negotiating in business, problem is we've left it, as always, too late to be in a strong negotiating position. 

 

Take it and reinvest 

[frany104]

That offer literally pays for Pavlovic. 
 

what are we doing!?

And he'll leave for a free in summer too

I’ve seen reports his contract was extended again for another year?
