I think we’ve got a lot more to do this summer. We need 2 centre mids if Morsy goes. We need a Delap replacement, and quite possibly a Al-Hamadi replacement. I’m sure McKenna will want to replace Hutchinson if he does and question marks for me over the right back position (Johnson being linked with a move elsewhere) and keeper position.
Busy few weeks ahead I think! [Post edited 16 Jul 7:51]

I dont disagree we have a lot to do and prob need funding to do it, just find it odd one report said brentford missed the deadline yesterday and another reporter now said different say the same thing both cant be true, but if we are getting ruiz and hackney a ST maybe a RB we will need funding i agree | | | |

How do we know Brentford missed the deadline, they might have come back with another offer.
We are not privy to everything that goes on behind the scenes and you know how good we are at "keeping secrets" until the time is right.
Might be a load of bollox too..... |  | | |

Think I said on a thread elsewhere at 5:30 that any bid that had come in just before the 5pm deadline, we probably wouldn't know until some point today.
But, I'll believe it when Its reported more widely than The Daily Fail.
That said, £35m would be good business for us and allow us to strengthen significantly. |  |

I don't think we need additional funding. With parachute & solidarity income, plus what we gained with Delap, we have a lot of headroom.
Circa £28M of amortised fees on the books this year from last year's signings, plus whatever signings there are this summer, amortised over 4/5 year contracts. Wages will have automatically dropped with relegation clauses kicking in.
This isn't to say we won't sell if the right offer comes in, but I don't think any more is needed to balance the books right now. Next years becomes tighter if we don't get promoted. | | | |

I think regardless of the release clause, £35million would probably be enough to get it done, especially if he wants to leave. I think he’ll have seen Delap move on and feel like he should be playing in the prem as well next season. If the release clause has expired prior to their bid then it might put us in a better position with regards to add ons and sell on percentage. £35 million is a serious amount of money at this level and would easily cover 3/4 quality signings |
Don't see 3/4 quality signongs for £35 million. Omari os a quality player. If we are looking to sign players for the Premier League four players at around £9 million wouldn't get us quality players and after add ons they would be more like £6 to £7 million each.
I think possibly between three and five players will come in.
With that being split something like 3 purchases and 2 loans. Or 2 purchases and three loans. | | | |

My point was we had 2 reporters saying 2 different things so which was right think we need more info than a 2 line tweet, my issue is not with the sale or the fee all these things are needed to fund what it seems we want to do, just more along the line of clarity from reporters, cause both reports cannot be true | | | |

This coming seasons Brentford are a very different proposition to last seasons Brentford, for Omari to weigh up. |
Agree on this.
It's one more season in the PL with a team he would be starting every week for, but they are likely to be towards the bottom 6 with so many changes at the club.
I can't see Andrews lasting more than 6 months either. Hell of an ask for your first job and then having your team gutted around you. |  | | |
| omari bid apparently on 09:12 - Jul 16 with 1529 views | bringbacktheglory |
Out of curiosity, why does it seem that people are more content with Hutchinson leaving for 35 when there was, what looked to be a high number of people, outrage that we sold Delap for 30? With fees paid, it’s very similar in terms of profit.
Maybe people think Delap’s ceiling is higher but I would rather lose Delap than Hutchinson if I had a choice.. | | | |

I think McKenna/the club can persuade him, assuming this is even true. I'd have thought Romano would already be all over this if it was? | | | |

New contract with a non-promotion release clause perhaps?
All depends if Hutchinson thinks he has a chance of the World Cup next year which he won't get a look in if he stays with us this season. | | | |

Probably because £35m for Omari feels like it's punchy in terms of his current value, whereas £30m was below Delap's market value after the season he'd had. |  |

Because in the open market Delap would have been worth nearer double than what we got for him, where Omari isn't - that's not to say he's a better or worse player, with a higher or lower ceiling, but just the premium that strikers attract |  |

my point exactly one reporter said brentford missed the deadline, now they didnt which is it, a reporter puts out a 2 line tweet not a story a tweet and in over an hr when most journos will be awake not one had confirmed it nothing not even Mr agents mate fabrizio who was touting omari yesterday. | | | |

I feel there is just too much quality ahead of Hutchinson in advance of the world cup to be honest. |  | | |

Almost certainly, but you never know with injuries etc.
It's almost certainly what his agent will be saying in his ear anyway. | | | |

At this level you can't be saying no to 35m simple as that, you take the cash, reinvest and go again. Omari has been an absolute success at the club, that sort of money helps us and we have helped his career. Cant be to sentimental | | | |

I would have thought at least one of the clubs that qualified for Europe would have met his release clause. If that's not happened he's better off staying here and having a storming season improving with us. |  | | |

Exactly. Also, it's the model the club is working under. We've just been spoilt up to now, promotions in successive seasons has meant we haven't had to do the selling part of the wheeling and dealing. This is what us fans need to get used to in our next stage. Once we get back to the Premier and manage to stay for a couple of years, we can start expecting to buy decent players and keep hold of them for more than 1 or 2 seasons again. |  | | |

I don't think he did enough last season for that kind of move. He had a decent season and was by no means out of his depth, but it wasn't the kind of season that gets you a move to a side playing in Europe. | |

Yes and no. Bid of £35m made, but payable over several years so not meeting the required terms. Deadline has now passed, but Brentford could come back in, and I would guess they will.

according to the story we've now paid Chelsea £22.5m for Hutchinson (record signing i would think), and with Chelsea getting a sell-on as well I can see why we would want more than £35m. |  |

Is there a world where Kieran is adamant Omari needs to be the main cog in our promotion push this season and we just flatly reject any offer? | | | |

For £35m-plus? Can't see it. That's two/three big signings at this level. | | | |

Because without the release clause we would have undoubtedly received a lot more for Delap obviously. You'd have been looking at £50m | | | |
