Would you rather buy him now for £3/4m when he hasn’t shone in the Championship or wait a season and see his price become £20-25m? No brainer if your recruitment team are on the ball.

Don't wait for me!
You think Balagun will play again for us? He's already gone I imagine.

But if you are going to play 3 centre halves you need 5 in the squad.
I`d be a bit pissed if i was Clarke.

No i don`t , hence the GET RID of Balogun in my earlier quote.
Hmmm... what makes you so sure Dunky is clearly gone if Maguire goes. Personally I think not, and all indications are the opposite of clearly gone.

Not seen such Bravery!
Because we work in the medium and long term as well as in the short term.
How great was it to have Băluţă and Alzate arrive on the scene after signing them in forgotten previous windows ?
Next summer we'll get 'new signing' Clarke for free. I look forward to it.
It’s the fact that we appear to be spunking £25m on a Championship centre back, even Villa have been frightened off by that astonishing price tag. I believe that having ‘Dunk Money’ is the only way that would see us bid that sort of scary wad for a player who might not make it in the Premier League.
The Leicester Mercury agree:

Perhaps Potter/Ashworth feel that a season in the championship will benefit him more than sitting on the bench.
Balogun will still go IMO. We will be well covered at CB with Dunk, Duffy, Webster, Burn, Bernardo and Baluta.

?? We have premier league money. £120m+ of it every summer just for finishing 17th. The club can easily invest in a £20m signing or two without selling anyone.

If we are to base our transfer budget on previous years, we are still circa 40-45M short.
This deal + the Moroccan striker and we'll reach parity, with perhaps a free/loan/cheap option for RB/RWB. Or we could just spend more, as we have been seeing 10-20M in profits.
We absolutely do not need to sell to buy in any capacity whatsoever.

That is exactly what PB has said, "No need to sell to Buy"

Clarke doesn’t even have Champ experience so can go off with impunity for a season and then come back and challenge.
If Balogun goes then Bernardo can deputise. Simple.

Any reply yet Trig?
Only yours. He may not have seen my post straight away, and then I guess it'll take him a bit of time to pick a player, get hold of their current club and make a deal, then sort out personal terms with the player. I'd like to see progress be teatime though.

Well you would have thought he would at least reply and say that he was on to it.
Honestly some people are just so rooood.
Didn't he at least ask if you had anyone in mind?

It's got to the stage that I don't think any of us could care less any more, just as long as he sings SOMEONE.
