| "gross negligence" 17:30 - Sep 1 with 2340 views | Cheltenham_Blue | Genuine question, what do you want the club to do? As things stand, without Flemming, we have a squad of 26 players (plus 2 U21's) with Flemming coming in, we have 27. Ogbene expected to be confirmed out, leaves us with 26. If we don't register Button, that leaves us on 25. Mehmeti doesn't want to go; Taylor is injured and the rumoured interest in Palmer never materialised. Mehmeti probably worth £7m; Taylor £10m; Palmer £3m Which of those do you want the club to release on a free or which of our other players do you want sold to make room? Because unless we get an inexperienced U21 player in, that's the only way that we sign anyone else. |  |

| "gross negligence" on 17:53 - Sep 1 by MK1 | Wow. I am so out of touch. I would happily accept £4-5M for him. Crazy prices for bang average players these days. I like Taylor, but £10M seems bonkers to me. |
I think 10 would be a stretch for him to be honest. |  |

| "gross negligence" on 17:49 - Sep 1 by Zx1988 | I'm not sure anyone is being left to rot. Take Mehmeti for example. The club accepted offers for him, and he's free to move on if he wants. He'll be fully aware of the consequences of 'staying to fight for his place' - he has a decision to make regarding whether he wants to not be in the squad, and collect his pay-cheque in return for training every day, or whether he wants to go elsewhere and actually play football. I don't think there's anything immoral in saying to him "there's no first team football for you here this season, so you're free to leave". |
I agree - truth is we don't know what has happened outside of what transfers we have completed - internal conversations etc. When I first replied I had misread the initial post. |  | |  |
