Premier League club rate our player, Blades fans, take him. How Sheffield United to have a player good enough for the Prem so we want to sell him and buy 2/3 Lge 1 players.
Why not try keeping a player and building around him. He is and will continue to grow into a very good player, keep him.
I don’t think it’s so simple.
What is Peck’s ceiling? Clubs will pay over the odds for a young player.
If Arblaster and Souza are fit and still here it isn’t clear that Peck would actually start if we kept the same formation.
Doyle is still quite young and does have some output at this level in terms of creativity and goals.
If you ended up with 10m+ and Doyle for example then you’d be mad not to take it.
Doyle might even have a higher ceiling than Peck.
This might be an opportunity to cash in on a player at their highest value and scoop a better replacement at their lowest.
Sometimes opportunities just present themselves.
I’d be happy to keep him. Of course. But if we got a top dollar offer and Doyle was surplus elsewhere then this just might be a case of stars aligning.
If you don’t see things like this as a way for the club to be run then you’d end up like Wednesday.
I’d rather we just keep Peck and retain continuity, don’t get me wrong. Rather we add 4 quality players and just go again. Just commenting however on the way things may transpire. Love his passion. Just wish he’d add goals. Maybe next year he does. Maybe he evolves into a no 10 and does just that. He wasn’t a deep Midfielder in the youths. But if Doyle is available for 3m then this would soften the blow of any midfield departure.
