The wording upsets me. We should be straight up saying absolutely no 

No one in world football is not for sale. Footballers all have a value. If we value Abdul at 40 mill then to me that's great business

When I was a kid I use to think priceless meant it was worth nothing 

 

But now I understand it means fatawu 

 

Can't sell him I'm not having it

It isn’t Marti’s fault the club have failed to move these players on, we have had countless windows to shift VK, Soumare, Faes, Daka etc especially when you consider many of these were eyeing the exit door after our first relegation. Guess what they are all still here stinking the gaff out whilst we added the likes of Skipp, Reid and to a lesser degree Ayew last summer which has only made the situation worse. 
 

Years of mediocre recruitment of players on inflated fees and bloated contracts has come home to roost, the one person who cannot be held to account is Marti who know has to cobble together a competitive side from what is here and how he is being directed to utilise the resources at his disposal. Some selections will have one eye on departures and having players in the shop window. 
 

I really feel for the manager given the shit show of a squad he has inherited as a result of piss poor recruitment and an inability to move on players. 

I see it differently. Stamp your own mark from the outset. He shouldn't be being directed by anyone. He's in charge. He's had opportunity to review footage of performances last season, look at stats., watch players in training.

Not sure what kind of message it sends to the younger players waiting in the wings. Time will tell. I suspect, sadly, that he'll stick with the old guard.

why are we even giving Everton a price for Fatawu. We should be rejecting it with a “ not for sale”.

So someone offers 100m your not selling? 

 

Everyone has a price.

Sell him and El Khannouss, late into a window with Rudkin leading the charge I think we'll do genuinely well to make the top 6 and that isn't even including a deduction.

 

I'd normally be for trying to take big money but this would be total sabotage. Would create a fresh swathe of toxicity as soon as a new season started. Another manager screwed over as well.

Some things are worth more than money and points deductions. Abdul and bilal are two players who give their all for this club and if we are to build for the future sometimes we have to make a stand and say no. Of course if one or both turn round and say they want to go then that is a different matter but if not then we have to stick to our values. We have to many players who aren’t bothered about being here and don’t put in the effort. We need to take back control of our future.

Unfortunately the release clause for BEK means we aren’t in control. Unless we change DOF’s name to Jon rudkinakis

Financial predicament worse than a lot predicted, everyone has a price and it’s generally a lot less than it would’ve been if the club wasn’t being run in to the ground.

Yes that’s what I meant when I said if he wants to go. I may be naive here but I’m hoping he may want to stay. He is one of the first on the team sheet here and is pulling up trees. 
 

I don’t know how others feel but despite our current predicament the likes of Abdul and Bilal give me real hope for the future and are role models for our youngsters coming through.

Like i said earlier, there is zero chance Everton could afford Fatawu. It's like me going in a Ferrari garage. I really want one, they look amazing but sadly i fall very short of the valuation.

 

"Can we get Fatawu for £20m?"

Can I get a Ferrari for £20k?

They have spent quite a lot of money, but they will also have higher PSR profit this year with the new stadium.

I really don't want to watch a Leicester team without Bilal and Fatawu.

 

I really hope both stay because we have hope with those two in the side, sell them and mid table with a prolonged stay in the Championship beckons.

 

It's no coincidence that our only signing this summer is a free transfer of a 38yo reserve GK on a one year deal. Any player we sell will probably be replaced by someone already in the squad.

Our squad is bloated and needs reducing. We’ve sold two players who were unlikely to be in the starting 11 and for whom we already have a strong replacement. How is that ‘selling our souls’?
