Shocked Gassama was sold for just £2.2m.

Why worry about such hypothetical things, if we stayed up then from a business point of view what sense would to make to cut founding to a premier league club Well where’s the money going to come from? Are they going to turn Espanyol into Wonga FC too? I don’t want BFC resources being used elsewher...

KRBFC

We have already committed to spending 60m this summer, apparently had a 10m bid for watfords striker rejected, had 18m fee agreed for Diouf, that doesn’t look like it’s cutting its budget to support Espanyol They’ve only just got their feet under the desk. If we stay up and Espanyol get relegated, ...

KRBFC

The problem I have with this is the finances.

Where is the 180m coming from to buy Espanyol?

Are BFC financially losing out? Will our budgets be cut to support Espanyol financially? If we sold a player for £40m, does that £40m fully remain with BFC?

Some of the posters on here are hilarious, acting like we’re Man City and our fringe young players can be rounded up and sent to develop and play regularly in La Liga.

And we won't be?

Yes we will be but look at Delap. Used Ipswich as a stepping stone, had a good year and moved on despite relegation.

KRBFC

Totally agree, the only other striker I’ve seen us linked with probably is the 6ft 6 guy from genk but I’m not sold on him at all, just because a striker can bully defenders in Belgium doesn’t mean it’s going to work in the prem, I’d rather go with a proven striker from the championship That 6ft 6 ...

KRBFC

Wasn’t Vydra the last player to sign for us in this situation? Sargent is the best striker in the league below and probably has been for the last few years. The only reason he hasn’t got the goals to match is due to missing large parts of each season with injury. Sargent had 15 goals 5 assists in 2...

Pretty much guaranteed top flight footy at Wolfsburg, we are not. Taking off the Claret glasses I know which makes more sense to him. We are guaranteed top flight football, we got promoted last season into the top flight. Wolfsburg are shite, I could easily see them in a relegation battle next seas...

KRBFC

I think a lot of people look at his poor PL season at Norwich when he was how old? 20? I believe he also played on the wing at Norwich in the PL with Pukki as the sole striker. The only thing with Sargent for me is his recent injury record, it felt like he missed half of the season at Norwich last y...

Won’t be too gutted if we missed out on Sargent. Don’t rate him anywhere near £20m, and he’s hardly a solution to our striker situation.

Why don’t you rate the best striker in the Championship?

KRBFC

Really hope we’re not pinning our goals on Sargent. Nowhere near a premier league player. I understand it’s difficult for a promoted team to find a goal scorer, but spending the best part of £20m on this fella seems a poor decision to me. Happy to be proved wrong though! I’m not saying you’re wrong...

Iv just read through 3 pages and still don’t know if Amdouni is injured or not.

3 pages of certain posters arguing with Jakub for the 1000th time. They can’t help but bite and get a kick out of ruining this place yet nothing is done.

KRBFC

I do hope you live in a perfect world where everything is rosy mate, unfortunately for Lyle that hasn't been the case and it's likely we don't even know the half of it. The point now is he is in a happy dressing room with a manager that is clearly looked up to by everyone - so the environment is th...

KRBFC

It’s a poor argument Warks put forward, it’s like saying Wayne Rooney, Ashley Cole and Harry Kane were better suited to PL football because they performed better at that level, whilst totally ignoring the fact that they played PL football when they were far better players due to age. Like Kane playe...

KRBFC

I don’t think he struggled in the Prem anywhere near as much as people make out. If you look at the games he started versus the games he missed (pre Esteve), he was a big miss.

KRBFC

Excuse after excuse, year after year. The truth is he’s absolutely tripe, deep down everybody on here knows it. Why do we keep up with this sympathetic stuff? He’s the most ineffective striker I can remember at BFC, at least the likes of Gifton and Juke could chest it, hold off a defender and lay it...

Foster is in a very positive environment now. I can't see Parker screaming at lads like VK did so it's up to Lyle now. I think it's a good season or bust for him tbh, hopefully it's the former.

How many times are we gonna keep saying this and making excuses for him? He can’t pass 5 yards

KRBFC

The same posters year after year pretending to be in the know posting fake news constantly. You'd think they would stop after getting so many wrong yet they continue to throw shite at the wall.

I would be amazed if Sterling is on less than 250k a week, more likely more than that not less.

Makes you wonder how far talks would go asking someone to take around an 80% pay cut

He wouldn’t need to take a pay cut, Chelsea could pay that 80% in return for a loan fee.

Okay Joey. I bow to your superior footballing knowledge.

So sorry for being woke and not writing off our 22 year old striker who has just got a Bundesliga move.

Thanks

I’m just being honest.

KRBFC

I'm not defending him I've said he made two costly errors which everyone remembers but his shot stopping when he came back in to the team was brilliant. Name me one player that season that didn't have a bad game in fact name me a player that didn't have at least five bad games! I've said in what I ...

KRBFC

I’m not suggesting he will or won’t make it as a Premier League striker. I have no idea and only the very best of the best do It’s your lucky day then, I’m here to tell you, he will never ever make it as a PL striker. Regardless of what you say, he’s completely tripe. Where does this “let’s give pl...

KRBFC

He didn't look 'poor' at all, he made two massive costly errors but his shot stopping was brilliant in the games he played he made some massive saves which people are quick to forget because everyone wants to remember the errors. We needed an upgrade for the premier league but James Trafford at tha...

KRBFC

I understand I’m probably in the minority here but I’d rather Brownhill left which would forced the club into the market. I don’t think a midfield with options of Brownhill, Cullen, Laurent and Hannibal is anywhere near good enough. We probably need 2 big strong athletic lads in there and seeing Bro...

KRBFC

I’d be very surprised if Leicester went anywhere near Dyche, I think that Everton spell will be Dyches last job in football. The modern game has moved on from dinosaur managers like Boothroyd, Megson, Pulis and Dyche.

KRBFC

I don't wish to thrash this arg out for the 10,00000000th time that's been done on here, Brownhill and Benson were on the bench, as was Ekdal, Cork, JBG & Zaroury. There wasn't an obvious candidate, perhaps Berge aside that was worthy of coming in and displacing a player from the previous season - ...

KRBFC

A touch different. We lined up on opening night with just six players in the XI that played the season prior - some of which weren't even key members of the promotion side. The only ones that heavily featured the season prior were Beyer, Cullen, Vitinho and Roberts, the other two were Al-Dakhil & F...

KRBFC

People say Amdouni lacked fight and didn’t work hard, total myth. I remember the West Ham at home game, he had to come off he was out on his feet. The game changed when he went off, we shipped 2 late goals and lost 2-1

Can’t understand anyone turning down Calvert-Lewin, it would be an unbelievable signing

I wouldn’t want Calvert Lewin here because of his dress sense.

I don’t agree with a footballer promoting cross dressing to children.

KRBFC

In fairness, Foster had the highest goal contributions in our entire squad in the last PL campaign, and he was out for half the season. I still don’t understand how long it will take before fans see Foster isn’t the answer and needs to be sold. He’s been here for 2 and a half years and had a handfu...

KRBFC

No I dont think he's a £50m player. To get someone to replace him that's as dynamic and good, and fits in the clubs ethos. Some foreign mercenary replacing him for £20m isn't a replacement. I still think he will be staying anyway Berge cost us around £11m and is a considerably better player than Br...

Go join Hezbollah then and do something about it, waving a flag virtue signalling isn’t gonna do shite.

Yeah I’m sure Arsenal or Man Utd will be signing an injury prone player who can’t score goals, like Utd don’t have enough of those.

KRBFC

The problem with gambling on Sargent is the fee he will cost, probably looking at close to £20m for him.

I see Luke Jovic is available on a free transfer

Roma loaned out Tammy Abraham to Milan last season, I’d be all over that, giving them a bigger loan fee to cover part of his wages.

KRBFC

Some shocking shouts on here, Fraser Forster, Matt Turner, Muric.

Let me put forward a couple of actually good goalkeepers, Justin Bijlow from Feyenoord or Dominic Livakovic from Fenerbahce.

KRBFC

Better options out there include Senegal international keeper Yevenn Diouf, relegated with Troyes to Ligue 2, but statistically the best shot stopping keeper in Europe last season. As well, already linked with us a few weeks ago, Turkey’s number 1 Uğurcan Çakır from Trabszonspor. Both would probabl...

I'll throw in Matt Turner. Very lazy supporters linking us to Nick Pope, just because he played for us previously. And then on top of that, to suggest they'd be happy to sell Trafford for £30 mill + Pope in exchange, makes me very glad they're not negotiating on behalf of the club. Clueless springs...

Forest are supposedly taking 3 players from Botafogo for like £35m combined. The 2 named and Cuibano.

Because you've invented a whole narrative that goes from AP's statement to Tresor playing a month later. None of which can be inferred from what he said...! For the record, I think what AP said is likely to be true as he understood it. My only point is that the club's only reliably statement is the...

KRBFC

200+ Prem appearances and caps for England would suggest he can defend. He might have gone off the boil the last couple of years but he’s got the kind of experience that our back line is (currently) missing. We have two choices as I see it. We either go with unproven and young with potential, or ta...

Not saying I want Keane but we need someone who can defend more than someone who can build the play, we'll have minimal possession in over 90% of our games we won't dominate any game this season so THB would get found out just like he did this season

Well there’s the problem, Keane can’t defend.

KRBFC

Flekken was a liability and has been replaced.

As for Frank leaving, it’s the nature of the beast, when a better opportunity comes calling, typically managers/players want to go and pursue that.

He didn’t look to have the same explosiveness last season, he was still quick but not the same as he was before the injury. It can take a long time to get over such a long injury and some never return the same, he needs time which is why I thought those criticising him on here were jumping the gun. ...

I mean I hate to say it but many of you asked for this, you wanted Gareth gone and now this is what you deserve. Tuchel is even duller than Southgate, I think he’s been sent on a sabotage mission.
