    If Semi was to go a starting point should be £1.5M to £2M and then add-ons. Don’t let him go cheap Millers. He’s happy enough to stay so reject the low offers and keep him for another season, even if it means taking a chance of him walking away for free next June.

    A lot can change in a season.
    We were never going to pay that kind of money for a 25 year old Frank , you know our policy as well as I do .

    Not saying for one minute he isn't worth that kind of money mate but we'd only pay that for a lad at 20 or 21 years of age .

    We've just paid Leeds Utd £1.2m this evening for Malik Wilks whose never kicked a ball above league one , however he's 20 years old .

    It was only my opinion that he’s worth at least £1.5M as a starting point.
    Personally I would rather we kept him for another season. When he’s good ‘ he’s good ‘ and then he’s susceptible to error of judgment, all players are, it’s called human error.
    Btw I thought you lot let Lindsay go too cheaply despite the profit you made on him.

    Nigerian International, Plays Centre Back, Midfielder and has had to play Right-Back.
    Scored some decent goals for us last season and we would have been relegated around Xmas time without him. He leads by example, has plenty of pace and he’s tall, very tall.
    He does make mistakes. He’s not worth multi-millions but a starting point of £1.5m would be a fair price imo.

    It’s not what he’s worth, it’s what other clubs are prepared to pay.

    To be honest mate Lindsay was about right but Pinnock was a million light in my opinion .

    Ain't no way Pinnock was only 500k better , significantly better than Lindsay , Pinnock bailed him out many times last season .

    Both had to go , didn't want to stay , Pinnock was offered 10k a week and wasn't interested .

    What can you do ?

    Hey Animal, its annoying isnt it but it also comes down to the fact that they want to leave as well so we've got to do a deal that suits both player and club.
    Im also more disappointed in us losing Ethan Pinnock than Liam Lindsay, but Im also still very disappointed in us offloading Jason McCarthy like we did to Wycombe for example!.

    Semi is also very quick and easily adapts to the sweeper role if required during the course of a game.

    We also have some great songs relating to his Christian name. Lyric sheets are free with any bid over £4m.

    You know you want him. Just pay the asking price

    If he was a £4m player then bigger clubs would have snapped him up already flour .

    We buy potential , the hit the ground running players tend to be beyond us .

The players that don't do it are very comfortable doing the simple things without standing out for applause....they just get on with the game and make it look easy. A bit of misplaced "confidence" is always a prelude to a cock up. Ajayii does have bouts of that misplaced confidence...he'd be a far better player (and soughtafter) if he played a little more - boring! No traumas!

    Stones is having the same problem knocked out of him at City - it's an age thing.

    I'd say don't run! Let them take you and teach you how to communicate with people who have different views.

    Posters are getting fed up with you and your attitude.

    And personally you're the only poster who has directly been abusive towards me for a long time on this board..
