Bristol City have moved quickly to replace Aden Flint. They have agreed a £5m deal with Ipswich for Adam Webster, Sky Sports News understands.

It is believed the central defender is having a medical in Bristol this afternoon.

You sound very excited.

Not a terrible deal if true.

What did he cost Town?

If so, that's a pathetic piece of business from ITFC.

Aden Flint is 28 years old and we should asked for at least the full 7m they received for him...

Very poor indeed

Not excited, disappointed.

Quality when fit, again as we always say if it is invested in the squad then its a good deal, if it goes into the coffers then not.

Feeling they will get a big fee for him in future, there better be a sell on clause.

Flint hasn't been half as injured as much as Webster though ....

Still, I get your point. Welcome Nsiala and Tilt I say.....

Sell on- you'd like to think so at 23 wouldn't you?

We can also assume that, to a degree, PH has been told to generate X amount of his own spending money.

5m for one of the brightest defensive prospects in the division is peanuts in the current market.

I would have liked to see us really dig our feet in and drive a hard bargain for once...

I see your point but Webster was jury pronelast season if we can get a replacement or 1 or 2 million it’s great business and still have some in the war chest for maybe a winger and striker.

Seems reasonable so long as we get a hefty sell-on

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me. Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing. Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial. Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid. Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

Well, if true, we've at least already got somebody in to cover (Chalobah).

Then surely we are best off getting him fit, playing him for 40 odd games and selling him to a Premiership club for potentially 3x what Bristol City are offering us...

Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Chambers, Chalobah and Webster give us some excellent options in the heart of defense, with a good level of Championship experience. I'd be massively apprehensive in putting our faith and money into Nsiala and Tilt.

We have a decent squad, keep it together FFS

You know Hurst will be lucky if he gets a quarter of that to work with.

So annoying that Norwich hold out for 22 million for Maddison and we say straight away to 5 for Webster, wish we would hold out for more.

What sale in the past suggests PH is going to get any type of 'war chest' from this deal.
Given his potential value, it's a shocking deal...considering Flint is moving for 7m.

It would appear so.... I think PH hinted at it the other day, that he would have to sell before he can buy, so £5m for Webster and the same again for Bart would give him a nice little war-chest to spend - he no doubt would have discussed with ME in recent weeks what % of sales generated would go towards the squad.

For the last couple of seasons, it's certainly been the case that while we know we can't spend £10m+ on one player, that sum on 3 / 4 / 5 players of decent quality would improve us no end.

So it would seem that Webster might be the first of the sacrificial lambs.

It is a shame to see promising players leave, but it is a fact of life that we (and other clubs like us) need to bring in the new players for <£1m or develop them from within and then sell them on for 5 / 6 / 7 or more times as much. That money then goes to cover our annual loss and sustain it at a vaguely manageable level and also to re-invest on the next crop.

I doubt ME would have allowed the sale without asking PH first. Wonder if Chalobah was brought in as a replacement for Webster. Also wondering if Hurst is thinking that he has 2 good centre backs in Woolfy and Chris Smith who can step up.

5m could have been us holding out for more, we don't know. Bristol may have come in with lower offers. Although I get your point about Webster's value.

If you look at it another way, the 5 mil has nearly covered the yearly cost ME pays to keep the club running

Is it that easy to just get him fit? If so it's a real shame Mick didn't think of that!
