Flemming first to go?

[SAMMY BUBBLY]

Anthony 20 million - Leeds want him allegedly.

Mejbri - 20 million.

Hartman - money back 8 million.

Sambo - 2 million.

Sonne - 4 million.

Ekdal - 4 million.

Tchaouna - money back - 12 million.

Ugochukwa - Galatasaray want him reportedly - money back? 20 million.

Hountondji - if St Pauli stay up he's staying there - 4 million.

Koleosho FC Paris - 4 million and that's a BIG loss!

Laurent - Portsmouth 2.5 million.

These "rumours" are well founded but are not going to make much difference to our balance sheet given the fact we will be around 80 million worse off with the loss of EPL TV revenue.

Not forgetting a few bob that Amdouni and Tresor will bring in.

Nonsense. If more than two clubs want the same player the price finds its proper level.

Flemming and Esteve apart, if any two clubs start a bidding war for any of our other players, I'll show my arse in Burton's window.

I've watched about 30 games live this season with the kids at games and I honestly reckon Humphreys, Esteve, Walker, Hartman, Tuanzebe, Mejbri, Ugochukwa, Luis, Anthony, Edwards, Flemming along with the injured Amdouni could all walk into 15 or 16 EPL player squads.

I still maintain a firm belief that Parker did not have a clue how to get a tune out of them. Parker never had a settled starting eleven or formation.

If Supersub6 reads this I'd like him to confirm the truth of that statement.

I watched the Palace game last night and the commentator said that Glasner never deviates from his starting eleven unless injuries or suspensions make him deviate from his plan. I wish we could have had the Dyche strategy - play 4-4-2 and team "as per programme", we might have had a chance of staying up.

I'm trying to leave us with the bones of a team Sammy.

I echo your sentiments Sinky.After the performances this season I would be surprised if any decent offers come in for anybody including Esteve.O?Shea was far superior in every department yet he went to Ipswich for a nominal fee.Flemming is not exactly Ronaldo.He was simply the best of a bad bunch and that is why he marginally stood out.He hardly had stiff competition with Foster and Broja FFS.
Add to that the dire financial situation and the chances of us trying to hold out for decent money for anybody is highly unlikely.

I'm standing 100% behind #13. Parker never gave us a proper chance and I reckon a decent manager would have kept us up.

My real concern is how much money do ALK actually need to go into next season with us fully liquid?

Just lately BT we seem to be aligned more than not and I have to agree Parker did not give us or the players a fair chance tbh - on Fleming he?s scored 9 goals in a team that really doesn?t make chances for him - typically Wood only got 12-14 goals under Dyche and our whole set up was built around set pieces and a target man - I?d chance Fleming in a mid to lower premiership squad if I?m honest he?s not prolific but a big strong lad who?s not afraid to mix it up and he will score goals if given chances.

I think you are looking at Flemming through claret tinted glasses army.Lower PL clubs have strikers like Richarlison and Gibbs White.Flemming is not even close to that level.He could still develop into a better striker given a more offensive set up but at the moment he will probably go to a promoted club-Millwall being the most likely if they get promoted.
I have stated on here many times that Parkers negative tactics will come back to bite us when we get to the annual fire sale.Kompany had a couple of players that shone in his gung ho set up like Berge and Odabert.Our players have never been put in the shop window by Parker with his tactics therefore nobody really knows what they are actually capable of in a more attacking set up.
