Ninjas thoughts on the ways of running a football club are worse than what we've actually witnessed the last six years

Have to totally agree with you norths

[Ginger Ninja]

Might as well give up on our youth team with that thinking

So you would turn down 2 or 3 mill for a youngster who has only played one half of football for us? Honest answer?

Is it really? In what way?

Honest answer is YES,I would as we have already according to reports turned down a £2.5 million bid

Honest answer. Most definitely yes. Sterling was a different thing as he was always going to be a star and we had a great % on next sale. Its about time a star can through a ranks. You're too young to remember gallen but he was a standout as a youngster

yeah but gallen is also the last key player we've produced, we've had hundreds come through our academy since then and whilst our academy is starting to produce good players we still need the money now and 2.5m for an 18 year old right winger with add ons is good imo, especially because we need the money and 2.5m would go a long way, heck, we could pick up yiadom for that. we still have yeni and pavel who play on the right and petrasso too so itd be hard for bowler to even break in the side. he could go on to develop well at everton and we could make even more money from him, look at sterling etc he never played for us but we made 15-20m from him.

Too young to remember Gallen
I'm 30 mate, not 12. I remember him tearing teams apart in the 90s before he got injured.
Fair play though, personally wouldn't want to turn down a few mill for a youngster we could well lose on a tribunal anyway.

I think weare thinks you're a youngster because you used the expression...'batshit mental' in the smithies thread!

It's possible lol. Or I use the abbreviation "lol" lol.

I get the whole ffp ruling but losing a player that clearly has ability is peanuts mate and you know it. The Everton scouts clearly know their onions and the fact that we're trying to keep him must be worth taking a chance on. The lad is very young and getting more attention than most. Fulham were very unlucky not to gain promotion and they're very much a club that look to give their talented youngsters a go and they tend to reap rewards. Sorry gotta disagree with you on this one mate

Well my point was that we are doing something right to have produced him. So whether we sell him for a healthy profit or keep him and develop him it's worth not giving up on our youth team.

Ten mill from Sterling wasn't it mate?

[Hitman34]

The last two pages of this thread are pointless.

He has turned down a contract offer with us.

Best thing we can do is bag the 2 or 3 mill and send him on his way.

thought it worked out to be nearer 15m coz of the add ons from his initial sale to liverpool but either way its a great bit of money from a player who never played a single game for us
