LBP 3,012 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I love some of our current players but there isn't a player in our squad you couldn't replace with 15 odd million If we get £25m+ for Jones and Spence that sets up brilliantly for our summer recruitment It's Gyokeres and Twine with 10 mill change minimum Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe haven't got the money was the wrong wording, more not willing to pay the money. Bournemouths team needs some hellish strengthening to survive in the prem. From a outsiders point of view I'm not sure blowing 20m on a championship rwb who has very limited experience is the way to go about. As a Bournemouth you kind of need him to come good whereas someone like a Arsenal or Tottenham can take the risk he duds. Remember that's what got Bournemouth relegated in the first place paying large sums for those mentioned above without them coming good. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Donnyboro 694 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I’d be fairly happy to sell both spence and jones if we received between 30-35million for both 1 Link to post Share on other sites

There's Ethan Laird from Man Utd who was excellent for Swansea before being recalled and spending the second half of the season on loan at Bournemouth, where he got next to no game time. There's also Kane Wilson from Forest Green who is available on a free transfer. He has a crazy amount of assists and seems to have the vast majority of the Championship seriously interested in him. It's them big calls that I'm imagining we're far more open to now that we have more strategy behind the scenes with buying low and selling high. Laird may have been excellent for Swansea but his actual production wasn't - 3 assists 0 goals in 2,000 mins of football. Wilson clearly had a good season, and he got 13 assists in 4,000 mins to show for it. However, Jones got 9 in 3,000 mins of football at two levels above him. If a sizeable bid comes in for Jones then I've no doubt we'll consider it but the grass isn't always greener, and this is real life not a game of Football Manager... 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,218 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I thought the suggestion was that Spence was available for around €12m, which is just over £10m? That was from the gossip when Bayern Munich were linked a little while back. Link to post Share on other sites

Those 9 assists also don't include the 3 (?) own goals he scored and the penalties he won for us as well. He's not had the same production since his purple patch which is to be expected but still looks dangerous every game and tracks back too. We'd be mad to sell in my opinion, but we're at the level we're at and needs must. Link to post Share on other sites

estonpidge 1,442 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 was thinking £20m-£25m the pair but hoping for more once someone starts the bidding. Link to post Share on other sites

I think they will all probably bid the same in all likeliness, and negotiate on other terms such as how much upfront etc, or simply what they offer to spence rather than the club.

A few of the Student types who claim to be football experts whilst studying for a degree in economics at an unheard of Uni in the Home Counties whilst supporting Milton Keynes or Barrow keep regurgitating it on lame football news websites.
