Youngy228 1,444 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Problem is prices don’t always compare team to team player to player. Everybody knows our financial status. That makes a huge difference to prices offered. It also makes a difference when we are buying - maybe Gibson was being clever when saying it’s a transitional time etc. 20 million for a player (who arguably would have less impact than 3 x 4-5 million pound players) is not something to be laughed at. I don’t want to lose Fry but his value won’t increase whilst still in championship. its a tricky situation at 20 million Link to post Share on other sites

I like him and he's promising but I've not seen much from him to think we should get any more than that. Even if Ben Gibson was thrown into the equation I wouldn't be tempted!

LBP 3,035 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 If basically all the Fry money went on players and we got gibbo on loan I’d maybe think about it but it’s too late for us to replace him properly and spend the rest surely Link to post Share on other sites

J.T. 640 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 21 minutes ago, Will said: I’ve got to disagree here Lurker, the lad oozes quality. He has to go for, as a minimum, what Adam Webster did. He should surely be worth much more than Webster... - He’s 3 years younger - He’s shown as much, if not more, in the Championship than Webster - He’s played for England at every youth level up to and including U21, unlike Webster Given Webster’s price, along with the prices rumoured for the likes of Tarkowski and Dunk and the price Harry Maguire has went for, Fry is easily worth £25-30m. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

TheHolgate 683 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 The issue is he has never had a long extended run in the team. I would like to keep him but if club took more than £20m I wouldn't be shocked Link to post Share on other sites

You have to be saying same price as Webster at a minimum and I wouldn't entertain gibbo on loan to sanction it. Fry is better than gibbo in my humble opinion. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

We need to play hardball make him our record sale make him more than Webster or stick a 20% sell on profit in there. Link to post Share on other sites
