  • Furlong to WBA for 1.5m

    According to the Daily Mail...

    Really shocked if true and would again show how poorly this club is being run.

    I get that we are going to sell our youngsters and the clubs supposed philosophy is now to bring through our own and sell them on for a profit. However, 1.5 mill for Furlong is a bargain and the club let him run down his contract and we are being robbed again, let alone this will weaken the squad.

    One step forward, two steps backwards all the time.

        This was put up on twitter just to put this potential deal in perspective -

        Justin James Luton to Leicester - 6 mill plus

        1 x full season - 43 games
        22 y/o
        3 goals
        8 assists

        Furlong

        RB/CB
        23 y/o
        132 games plus a few in the prem
        4 goals
        11 assists

        1.5 mill ffs

          I’m happy personally. He’s a weak link & opposition attack him
          Under Les Ferdinand:
          Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
          Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
          Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
          Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
          And many more mistakes

          LES FERDINAND, IT'S TIME TO GO

            Will be so f*cked off if this is true.
            I am a realist in that the finances of this club dictate that we have to be a selling club, but this does not work if you give your players away.
            Everyone knows that there is a fire sale at QPR and make ridiculously low offers and we just say ok to the first club that comes in.
            Bristol City sell their full back Lloyd Kelly to Bournemouth for £13m. We get £1.5m for Furlong who can also play CB.
            We will now have to rely on a 38 year old full back who missed a lot of pre season.
            Something has to change

              Have never rated Furlong, good going forward, not so clever at defending, positional sense quite poor, 1.5 million will do very nicely,

                Don’t care . Very very average player. Redondo is being brought in and is twice the player. Rangel will act as his mentor. JN

                  Except Furlong and Rangel are RBs and Redondo is a LB.

                    Maybe Kakay will be involved now and be back up to Rangel. Is Niko a right or left back?

                      He’s versatile. JN

                        It doesn't really matter whether you rate Furlong,. We should be getting the highest possible fee for our players. West Brom will be looking for play offs at least this season and obviously do rate him.
                        We should be quoting them a stupidly high fee, like Bristol City and Luton did, and see at what point West Brom bite, rather than sell at such a low price that their new manager publicly says he is a bargain (like Freeman).

                            I really don’t rate Furlong so not that bothered but could of conned WBA for more quite easy. 1.5mil sounds like an opening bid and we’ve just accepted it

                              This 100%.

                              And people think that our DOF is doing a good job.

                              They should be asking for a minimum of £6m given how much is paid for players these days.

                              Try and get decent fees for the players, to avoid needing to sell so many of them.

                              I am really getting F...ed off with the club.
