Having listened to our managers interview where he says he wants to move Hamer inside to get him on the ball more I hope he does not become this seasons Kevin McDonald.
Still two years left on his contract and no reason to sell, but who knows the way the tangled web works.

You know how it is haha! Of course it will be.

Would be slightly surprised if PSV have 25-30 million English Pounds to spend on him(?)

28 year old who isn't a physical specimen. That's very high for him. If we make 5 million on him that's good work as long as we can replace with a younger fitter version or two

That sound logic won't stop people foaming at the mouth when we 'only' get £17m

I've already punched a hole in the wall here.

I'm coming round to the idea of "just" getting our money back tbf. We had use out of him for two years.
 
Money back would be excellent but I'd be surprised if anybody would pay. To me he currently looks likely to stay. If he does, it will at least simplify recruitment, give us less to do. If he leaves we might have to mess about signing 2 players to replace him

If we are to carry one big earner I'd rather it was him. His fitness stinks but he's the only matchwinner among them
 
If we lose Souza and any of Hamer, Anel or Cooper, we're giving ourselves a lot of work to do, a lot of quality to replace and on what budget and timescales??
 
A Dutch club should not be capable of signing Hamer from us. The price has to be north of £20m which is a fee I’d be surprised if another club was willing to pay. His age just means his value to us is far greater than a buying club. He’s in his prime & the best player in the division.

They play in the champs league have revenues of over €150m, made a large operating profit and are selling players for c€40m. I’m quite sure they can pay what it takes to get Gus if they want him.
 
Got to be above £20m for me. 2 years left and it's what he's worth to us rather than trying to sort of justify accepting less for him.
He's very hard to replace whilst we are championship club. In fact it probably requires a setup change and 2 players or the like.

PSV would have to break their transfer record. However this is assuming they don't include say a player swap?

Exactly this, we decide what we would take not who’s going to offer the most. For me it has to be £20 million at the minimum.

Appreciate the comment, but realistically he's unlikely to say otherwise.

If the Dutch champions are in for him, at 28, a move home, Champions League football etc...
You'd assume that will be a lot more tempting to him than another season here.

Hamer isn't worth that much.

I really hope we don't sell. We've already lost Souza.

We've one more year of the larger parachute payments, it'd be nice to see us back Selles and have another roll of the dice. The sales will still be on next Summer if we fail again (maybe at a lower rate).

Not worth selling then
 
If the rumours are true that Hamer and his family are feeling settled where they are, then aren't Leeds (which is commutable) the biggest threat?

Didn't one of the reports say they think they can get him for £6.8m ?

It's fine saying that but he's getting on and it will likely be his only chance of playing in the Champion's League. Eindhoven or Dronfield?

Depends on where Hamer's heart is at.
If his head's turned (see Ndiaye), then best to let him go whilst his value is still high.

We were able to move Berge on with few years left on his deal, and replace with Hamer.
It may be that the Board / Selles feel now's the right time.

I'd be supportive if it was handled in the same way as the above. Replacement ready to go, pre-sale.

Hamer leaving would score equal 4th on my personal pantheon of trauma regarding players leaving.

1-Currie
2-Deane
3-Ndiaye
4-Agana/Hamer

So, not ideal.

McCabe flogging James Beattie and Nick Blackman at ridiculously idiotic moments were pretty traumatic to me too.

As was needlessly shoehorning Walker into the Naughton deal.

He had some pros (investment into club infrastructure), but he was atrocious at the football side.
The reverse of the Prince.

Not convinced the sale of Berge after Ndiaye was the greatest transfer strategy or delivered positive results.

I personally couldn't care less if he did go
He is as responsible as the mental fragility in that side last season as anyone, always looking for a way out ,lazy ,unfit

Great player but I wouldn't shed a tear if him or any others leave

I dont think he will and I dont think.he wants to unless he has found tge training a bit too much like hard work and is looking for a way out I dont think he is pining for the tulip fields

Doesn't seem like he's found it too hard so far. From the clips I've seen he seems really happy in training and seems one of the main ones having little jokes or pranks to keep people's spirits up.

I also noticed on his insta that he was doing extra training on his holiday so perhaps he had wind of who was becoming manager and might need to up his game.

Yeah listen ive got nothing against him personally and. Think he is a gem of a footballer ive just got a huge downer on the team as a collective and he is no exception

If he is fit and firing and happy then lets go

I dont want him to leave but im still angry at the way the players and manager let us down last season
