There are four players we currently cannot sell for any money at all. Anyone else can go, reluctantly, for the right money but if we sell Mitoma, Dunk or Estupinian we can kiss goodbye to a decent run in both domestic football and Europe and if we sell Ferguson we put at severe risk both his future success and ours. He needs to stay here and develop.

f*** off Spurs

Sick to f***ing death of our players being hawked around the place this summer.

Ferguson. Mitoma. Enciso. Pervis. The vultures circling around us and them can all get stuffed.

Not a chance we sell in this window.

Doesn't Haaland have a buyout clause which is activated after 3 years or something? Fergie could be the perfect replacement for him by then.

We’ve been over all this, Evan shouldn’t be rushing off to other Premier League clubs where his development is likely to be negatively impacted.

Spurs should be put off, not so much by us (quite rightly) insisting on a significant fee, but because they’ll either:

1. drop him straight into the first team and expect him to instantly replace Harry Kane, getting on his back if he doesn’t.

Or

2. Decide he’s “one for the future” and drop him back into the U21’s, giving him little ten minute cameos in the League Cup.

He’s developing well here, we’re top of the league, right now he should turn down Real Madrid, never mind Spurs.

Edit: I may have my Albion-tinted glasses on here.

A hundred quid? Sounds like an opening bid from Chelsea Todd and co...

Dunk's probably worth far less than populism on here would like to imagine. £20m tops. Ditto 'Webbo'

The bit that annoys me is Gary Lineker telling Spurs they should be signing Ferguson. The twat loved it when Leicester won the Prem, but I didn't see him advising Spurs to buy Mahrez, Vardy or Kante in pre-season.

Worth to whom, though? Yeah, he's probably worth around that to any club that might be interested in buying him. But he's worth much, much more than that to Brighton & Hove Albion, which is all that really matters as he's not agitating for a move.
