Outgoing? Anel Ahmedhodzic

[Blade58]

How much do we reckon then?

I’m hoping £4m-£5m + £2m for Moore
That could get us a couple of CB’s if our owners are willing to use it and for me specifically on a permanent signing or two

Let’s hope he/they are lined up?

 

[AnstonBlade1]

Selling your best CB (when you're already short in that area) 5 days before the season starts with no replacement in sight isn't exactly something you'd expect from promotion contender.

We’re not a promotion contender…

 

[Slim Man]

It's completely fine

We cannot let him go for free in a years time

 

[LondonRoad]

I'm not convinced we're anywhere near promotion contenders ATM. Losing players this close to the start of the season is once again piss poor planning

How do you know there aren’t any replacements lined up? There are fuck all rumours coming out of the club, we could have a few deals lined up ready for when Anel leaves.

Can we give the club a bit more credit? They ain’t idiots, they aren’t sat around asking each other “what the fuck do we do now?”. We’ve all known this was a possibility for months, there will be plans in place.

True he wasn't going to sign a new deal, so had to be sold.

And that makes sense. The club isn’t in a position to let his contract run down and walk away at the end of next season for nowt

How are we not a promotion contender? Name 6 teams better than us right now and I’ll agree with you.

 

[Teddybear]

we can only hope

 

[Gin&Juice]

Is Ridsdale in charge? Where’s money gone

 

[Yogi]

Yep unless the owners are sat on stacks of cash they’re doing a very good job of hiding we aren’t in a position where we can let assets go for free.

 

[FTPE]

Rumors of upto 14 mil. Feyenord bought a winning lottery ticket, and so....bye bye Anel, hello.......someone, please have someone lined up. Starting with Robbo is not encouraging.

14?? No way.
It'll be the same people that said £4m for Moore.
I would be absolutely over the moon for 10m.
IF we have a replacement lined up

I’d say you could argue as things stand we are weaker than last season, but there’s still time to strengthen

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

No problem with this. A take it or leave it scenario for me. I'm sure the club are busily working on loaning his replacement

 

[Danetheblade]

Yeah the one thing i was happy about when wilder went was that it woukd see the end of the anel / robbo axis of anxiety but we seem to have got worse in that department

Suppose in a roundabout way.. if we sell Anel, it gets rid of that anxiety.

 

[robbiez666]

I say Feyenoord were after the Boro defender but lost out, so this makes sense for them really. I don't expect to get more than a few million for him.

It's that or he walks in July and likely signs a pre-contract in January.

 

[YES Blade]

We are weaker in terms of squad depth, but we’ve still got one of the best starting elevens in the division.

The league last season was very poor, even if we’re worse, we’re in the top 6 best squads.

I agree, still time to improve and I believe we will.

 

[1987]

Think generally, Anels reputation has been a lot better than performances over the last couple of seasons.

It's all moot anyway, because we just can't let another player leave on a free. Wish him all the best though and hope we've got a replacement lined up.

 

[Upton_Blade]

No doubt a Bulgarian replacement incoming these Yank owners are skint, we have to sell before they can recruit.

 

[Maltby_blade]

We’re not a promotion contender…

Yes we are…

I know you lot aren’t you are going down

As things stand I disagree. I think defensively we are weaker.

It maybe Selles’s all out hi press game means we are looking to score one more than the opposition. Do I think that will work? As it stands no

Btw, we still have the unknown of what we are getting with our new manager? He could be a genius? Then again……

Birmingham
Ipswich
Wrexham
Southampton
Leicester
Coventry fucking City

For a start

We are weaker defensively, no doubt about that. But that doesn’t mean we’ve now got a below average Championship defence. We’ve still got a defence that will keep us competitive until we can sign a right back and one or two centre backs.

 

[NateDogg]

Birmingham
Ipswich
Wrexham
Southampton
Leicester
Coventry fucking City

For a start

How are Wrexham seriously better than us?

No way Wrexham are better than us. Also Leicester are going to get a hefty pts deduction. Plus Cov C are rumoured to be close to breaching FFP regs.

We’ll deffo make top 6 and the dreaded play offs again. Doubt top 2 though.

 

[utd4ever]

Just saw the revamped boardroom

 

[Eppyblade]

Wrexham? Seriously!

I can’t believe people fall for the hype bullshit they will be mid table at best

Better signings this summer
