Apparently we've knocked out a 3m bid for CG from Chelsea.

Agree1 Disagree1

26 Jan 2017 16:26:35
Aye, stick a '1' in front of that Roman 😆

26 Jan 2017 16:38:25
I thought 3m was a cracking price for him.

26 Jan 2017 17:01:56
Really? And who do you think we could replace him with for that 3M

26 Jan 2017 17:16:38
marshall.

26 Jan 2017 17:50:45
£3 million is a decent bid for a 34 year old who we paid nothing for.

As long as he is replaced I would take it.

26 Jan 2017 18:07:44
I would be hoping to invest a lot more than 3m in a gk.

26 Jan 2017 18:14:09
When we sold wanyama I ďont remember another 12m player coming in.

Don't remember the van Dyke money being invested in a 10m player either.

There's no way br isn't looking at another GK it wasn't that long ago he dropped CG and only put him back into the team as he's the best we've got which isn't a compliment.

Strange point shug

26 Jan 2017 18:44:31
The fact is if Chelsea want him we should be asking for at least double or treble that.

26 Jan 2017 19:10:32
Give them Devries - plus £3m

26 Jan 2017 19:11:54
Tick

A lot more than £3 million for a new keeper? We haven't spent over £3 million on any player since BR came in and we probably won't any time soon.

Remember that we picked up Forster for £2 million so there are bargains out there.

{Ed007's Note - We had loan fees to pay for Forster which were about £750k a season if I remember right, Niall.}

26 Jan 2017 19:19:53
On what basis would be asking for double or treble 3m?

That's almost as rediculous as 6m for mckay, not quite tho but up there.

26 Jan 2017 19:35:34
Do you really think we would knock back 3 million I don't I think the player ain't interested in going to sit in a bench

26 Jan 2017 20:12:06
The cost of the player is irrelevant to me personally niall.

The point I was trying to make tho is we need to be serious about signing a good keeper and if that means spending then we should at least be willing to do so.

26 Jan 2017 21:57:19
Tick. Hows it a strange point. CG although not be the CL standard we want is worth more to us to keep than letting go for 3m. For us to replace him with equal or better would cost us quite a bit more than 3m. Probably double that. So i ask again. Who would you replace him with given BR is looking at other areas to spend on.

26 Jan 2017 22:15:16
We've sold numerous players over the years and not replaced them with the same transfer fee hence me not understanding your point.

I don't know any available keepers within our budget shug but that doesn't concern me as I hadn't heard of boruc or forster and they done alright. I guess that's why we employ scouts tho.

I would also find it odd if BR wasn't looking at a gk, right now maybe not the timing isn't right but it was only a short time ago CG was dropped by BR and only reinstated coz de vries isn't up to it.

26 Jan 2017 23:58:39
I think CG will look at it from the point of view that he's winning trophies where he is, playing quite well overall (with the occasional boo boo) and getting a game every week. I'm sure he'll also remember that 3 years ago he was on the verge of looking for a job away from football so hopefully he'll not declare an interest in moving to Chelsea to be a tea boy. On the other hand he might think, "Stuff this, I'll go where the biggest pay cheque is. " lol HH
