Oxford could still be seen as the dm to replace clayton and if Howson moves on. If Ayala moves on too then we could do far worse with a fry/gibson partnership. Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,229 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I don't think it's a simple choice between Gibson and Oxford if the finances aren't anywhere near the same. I'd have Gibson back over chancing it with Oxford if they were both gonna cost us the same but I just don't see how that could happen. Regarding Fry rumours, unless we're selling because we have a plan on how best to spend the money, keep him for now. Just getting some money out of him right now doesn't help us and it only hinders our back line. I feel like I keep saying this over and over but in terms of getting wages off the books, Fry is not burning a hole in our pocket. I'd sooner shift Britt and take a bigger loss on him than sell Fry because somebody is offering £10m+. Link to post Share on other sites
DevKWat 2,365 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) If selling Fry for the £15m price mentioned meant being able to sign Roberts and Gibson on permanent deals with change to spare, that would sound very appealing to me. Although I can’t see Fry wanting to go at all personally Link to post Share on other sites

TBH I dont go off the logic that X team would not let X player go if he that good. Therefore he cant be all that. That logic could have been applied to Randolph when we signed him but he turned out to be just fine. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It's like Southampton letting gaston go out on loan to us. If you sit and think about it there has been loads of players who have been let go by a side and have turned out to be a good player. De bruyne and salah for example Link to post Share on other sites

Mfcdanny 770 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 If pulis was still here for the next 2 seasons do you think spence and Coulson would have got a chance. Probably not. And both there contracts would of ran out. Link to post Share on other sites
J.T. 640 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 That’s all fair enough. I just feel that if two different clubs (West Ham and now Augsburg) are happy enough to let a supposed “hot prospect” leave their club’s for next to nothing, there’s something not quite right.
