And drop down from the c.50K wages he was on at Burnley and could probably have signed a new PL contract on the same wages? Wouldn't add up for me but could happen. |  | |  |

Read carefully what you originally put (and what I said in my response).  |  |

When I was trying to do some fag packet calcs on Hackney vs Brownhill over 3 seasons I saw from TransferMarkt that Brownhill was c.54K last season if that is believed and I can't see Burnley being able to afford much more than that but that could be a reduction on his PL wage from the season before. At the end of the day that would probably be very top end for us and given I thought I read from a couple of places the Blades don't have much money which is why I struggle to see how this works. |  | |  |

He's also rumoured to be wanting a pretty hefty signing on fee. This contract is possibly the last big pay day of his career so I can't blame him for wanting to cash his chips, but does feel unrealistic that Sheff United would be able to sign him. Those expectations might drop as we get closer to the end of the window though, he's only got 12 days left so he will have to make a decision at some point. |  | |  |
norwich and Saints are the other two. (n/t) on 10:19 - Aug 21 with 827 views | Bloots | |  |

A bit of a strange one for me. Seems overly overt that he's waiting for the biggest pay day possible but presumably he has just been with a personal trainer all summer and isn't ready to go straight into anyone's first 11 from 1st September. |  | |  |

As a free agent his not worried about the window. He can get a nice signing on fee say 5 million then play for 40 grand a week. |  | |  |

He should still be worried about the window as clubs need to submit their squad lists, unless he's signing somewhere and not playing until January which is unlikely. |  | |  |

Frees can be registered outside the window - e.g. Tuanzebe. |  |

Hmm I think that's true if there's a squad spot remaining, but not if the club has already registered 25 players, I don't think they can then unregister someone in the Premier League. Not sure if its different in EFL but I'm pretty sure that's how it works? |  | |  |

Not uncommon for clubs to register 23/24 players though to leave a spot or two open for a free agent signing, so he could still be alright. I imagine he probably suspected he’d have been snapped up by someone by now though so probably is a bit worried/disappointed. |  |

Yes £15M was rumour but in my calculations I assumed we could get to £5M plus £50K per week wage and it is still cheaper than Hackney. I assume his expectations will drop soon but as a free agent he can still be picky if he really has multiple offers. My worry as with many fans whoever we go in for we have lost so much time now getting players integrated to be effective in the next few weeks. |  | |  |

I suspect its one of those where he's got offers, just biding his time to see if something better comes along. Bit of a balancing act as clubs will want some certainty but there will come a time when his agent has smoked out all the interest and he plumps for his preferred option. |  | |  |

I hope we are in that pot of options. But Phil quashed a while ago but our options would appear to be dwindling unless there is something lined up waiting for the dominoes to drop. I don't see that Billing would be part of a chain, bid the money and get him in. Trying so very hard to be patient and trust MA and co. |  | |  |

Thought Phil put the kybosh on the Billing story yesterday? |  |

He did, but other journos I have seen suggesting something may happen, have no idea maybe club sources Phil have putting him off scent. Just don't know but Phil probably right. |  | |  |
