Ben Marshall winger from Stoke City

Recommended Posts

Top of the priority list for me. Can't see Stoke turning down £600k+ when they'd lose him on a free in the summer.

They would get something from a tribunal but you are right in that they would prob accept a figure if they offered a sun which is likely to be more than a tribunal would pay out.

Can't say I've ever heard of him or seen him play, but he's young and he's a winger. Two decent qualities already. And his record at Wednesday seems decent. Not too expensive either.

Seems alright.

I've no idea whether we'll sign him or not, but one thing I am sure about is this won't be a factor.

I think it could be you know! We're lucky that we play on Wednesday, but teams playing on Tuesday will want to prepare for the match and bids for players will be unwelcome. Managers won't want the hassle of having to look to replace players when they've got a game that day, it's a headache. Luckily Marshall's nowhere Stoke's first team so it shouldn't effect him but it might with other players we're interested in! I can see us having to rely on a few loans after the window has shut.

No! I'm not buying it. These transfers often appear to be last minute deals, but usually people have been working on them for quite some time. They only don't go through earlier as people are weighing up their options or, more precisely, keeping them open. They're also as much about chairman, directors of football, secretaries and legal people etc. etc. as they are football playing staff.

I really don't see how an entire transfer strategy is going to be derailed by preparation for one game, but I'm happy to agree to disagree.
