    I imagine that we need to raise some funds to cover both imminent signings and signings we have already made.He may
    prove to be a quality Premier League striker who would be very useful next season.However,his age doesn't seem to fit
    with our current strategy,what do you think?
    I liked him tbh Barrie said before he did a decent job for us with the exception of a couple of misses he shouldn’t have.

    As for keeping him now - I can’t see it tbh.

    He’s completely at the opposite end of the spectrum to us and him being a forward probably doesn’t help his case ( I mean if he’s further back is a team player and brings knowledge and experience then maybe we’d hold onto him).

    Rumour is we got £2.6 million loan from Utd so
    We only need to re coup 9 million ish less depreciation which we probably won’t get anyway, we could do with him doing well and Getting a offer of 5/6 million for him , think I’d snap their hands of at that.

    He just needs to net half a dozen for United, one right out of the top drawer and we will be quid's in.
