Player Suggestion Souttar played and scored last night

[EddieColquhoun]

There is absolutely zero chance we’re re signing Souttar.

Could you explain your maths work please.

There is absolutely zero chance we’re re signing Souttar.

There's no chance Souttar plays League 1 football this season.

There's no reason to think we can't be in for him one way or another.

Just need a bit of luck (he chooses us) and some commitment (£) from the owners.

 

[acko17]

In think it would take all of our budget to sign him

 

[jimmymuir]

If Stoke beat us to him, then the board have no ambition to get promoted. Probably likely too given Stoke seem to have a bit of dosh.

They're currently spent up I reckon. It depends on how much they get for Bae Jun Ho

Thing is, Stoke seemed to have moved on from Ashley Phillips then, and Spurs have clearly bought enough centre backs to not need him, so why aren't we trying to get him? It annoyed me that for whatever reason we didn't push ahead and sign him last summer!

I mean they're owned by one of the richest families in the country so "they've got a bit of dosh" isn't subjective it's a fact.

 

[Pandev]

Cmon COH make this happen

 

[NordicHarry]

Many ways this can go, both Stoke and Wrexham will blow us out of the water for fees etc especially with these new rules.

Or Souttar would push his way to try and get back to Blades after seemingly loving it at the Lane, for then to Stoke and Wrexham blow us out of the water.

Or we sign John Souttar

So, unless we get blown out of the water we have a chance then?

 

[FTPE]

So, unless we get blown out of the water we have a chance then?

Stoke have offered £8m
Wrexham have offered £10m

And we've offered a season long loan, and an applause on the last game of the season

 

[bertieblade]

Taking account of his injury record is he worth £8 - £10m?

 

[Magic 20]

Taking account of his injury record is he worth £8 - £10m?

Yes

 

[Silent Blade]

Taking account of his injury record is he worth £8 - £10m?

No

 

[NordicHarry]

Taking account of his injury record is he worth £8 - £10m?

Genuine question, has he actually got a bad injury record or did he just have an unfortunate accident which happened to be his Achilles?

 

[Whitby-Blade]

Can see Boro getting involved in a few more targets from this point, cashed in on Hackney and have a 20% sell on for Morgan Rogers who looks to be moving for £117m. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Souttar links, he would be a hell of an upgrade on an ageing Luke Ayling.

 

[bertieblade]

Out for a year with ACL and Achilles tendon which required multiple surgeries. It could be said that he will be stronger after the surgery, but it is a lot of money to spend and I assume a large proportion of our budget on a player with recent injury records especially when Leicester only paid £6m for him from Stoke .

Whilst a good player, in my opinion if we cannot get him for £5m we look elsewhere, he is a good player when things are happening in front of him but not quick or nimble enough to justify a higher fee. But it’s all about opinions

But surely you understand that the only major injury he's had is that? If you go off that we should've never signed O'Hare or Cooper and theirs were worse.

Agree with the fees but every fee is absolutely bonkers at the minute and I do feel if we did blow the boat out on anyone. It would be him.
