    Vokes in China

    Wales beat China today 6-0.Gareth Bale hat-trick.Sam Vokes two plus at least one assist.Sam seems to have a good
    understanding with Bale who is available from Real Madrid.Ok Ok I am dreaming but no harm in that,Madrid might have better weather but people are friendlier in Burnley!!!

    Incidentally Bale has just had a 9 hole golf course constructed on the land he owns behind his house in the Vale of Glamorgan.

    Not a bad start for Giggs, even if it was only China.

    Would SD sell Vokes?

    Would Vokes leave Burnley?

    If yes to both questions - how much?

    I don’t know is Sean or he would want a move. With Europe possible maybe not though a high bid and more game time or salary would tempt both as everyone has their price.

    Transfermarkt say his value is £5.4m but what we would get would depend on the market. He hasn’t played a lot recently to be in the window for a big boost on that from PL clubs. More likely to be Championship clubs or possibly newly promoted ones.
    We paid £0.5m for him so we are likely to make a profit.
    Contract runs to 2019. So his market value will fall after the summer

    Despite his brace against Chelsea and a couple of cameos he is way down the pecking order.

    A team like Leeds chasing promotion or Southampton if they get relegated would be ideal for Sam.

    I like the lad but if we have real aspirations of being a top ten EPL club we need better.

    Five million quid about right?

    I would hope for £7m, but as he has been a loyal servant accept £4m if he gets the chance of regular games. He may prefer to stay unless he gets a salary match and that may be difficult.
    I suspect Sean would sell Nahki first though as he is even lower down the order.
    Not sure what Sam did wrong after Chelsea, good to see he can still score goals in China and hope it raises his prof8le.

    Incidentally our squad has the 4th lowest value in the PL and that is including GKNK valued at £6.3m. The wonders of Sean!

    “Bale's hat-trick was his first at international level, making him the first player to bag a treble for Wales since Robert Earnshaw against Scotland in 2004.
    Sam Vokes was directly involved in four goals against China; as many as in his previous 31 games for Wales.”

    Just a pity Sam was taken off after 63 mins just when he could have also got a historic and first international hat trick
