    Anyone think it値l be a last minute rush?

    Ritchie and Mitrovic will go early August (」35m). We値l finally bring in 4 players a couple of days before 9 August (all underwhelmers) to save on wages and 2 will be loans. Overall spend 」15/20m? Every penny and all that.

    Rafa must have some control over who is staying and who isn't, otherwise 15mil for Ritchie would've been too good to turn down for fatty when Stoke came knocking earlier in the window.

    」15m is the price on Ritchie's head. Rafa is apparantly in full support of this. But stoke only offered 」11.5m. At that price, Ritchie stays.

    Ritchie will go for 」11.5 million to reduce the wage bill and its money for nowt cos we have that Ki Was Free to replace .

    Stoke might chuck in a 4th team reserve player who will be marginally better than Joselu.

    the only last min rush will be OUT... Mbemba, Mitro , Ritchie , Lascelles , Hayden, etc etc

    It's already been stated that Ki is the replacement for Merino.

    I also don't think we'll sell for 11.5 million, we know what a money man he is so he'll want every penny.
    i think we'll leave it late though.

    Except another year on another year older.. Less money offered , if any if he has a crap season.
    Money in the bank now or risk it later.. What do you think Ashley will do .

    I can see where you're coming from but that can be said about any of our players and if they have a named price he's also a greedy sod who won't like to let someone else get the better of him and he'll see it as Stoke getting better of him.
