“A one man battering ram” - still a gamble for a big club on 11:53 - Jan 4 with 2027 viewsunstableblue

The article’s description of him nails it. But he’s also got pace, finishing, and close control, plus his penalty was superb against Chelsea.

But I can’t help but feel that he’s still too much of a gamble for a big club to pay £30-40m for him as their key striker. As the article states he didn’t set the championship on fire, and clubs will want to see another half season at least of risk this form.

Good article, I dont see any reason why we would ever sell him this month!
He seems very level headed and having an ex pro as a dad must help, even if a Big club does come in for him he's unlikely to start and maybe not even be involved each game.
Unless we sign an extraordinary striker this month(unlikely) he knows he's probably going to start most games and worst case 30 mins as a sub. As Mck says he's getting better all the time, playing regularly is the best way he'll continue to develop

I can't seriously believe anyone is going to buy him. Maybe I'm naive but we aren't going to let him go for £40-50m so it would have to be something ridiculous, like £100m which no-one is going to buy him for that now.

£30-£40m ?! Are you joking? Minimum double that and for us to sell in January it would have to be 9 figures.

£30 - 40 million would be well undervalue in the modern market too

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Did Delap take a nasty stud to his left knee before tucking that pen away??
