With his injury record, age and contract length then that will be 100& no then, i can't see us recouping that much.He is worth that to us - but not to others. Like i've said, if we can get 75% of the season out of him at full capacity then he's top draw for us.
If someone offers decent money then I’d let him go and put the money toward getting Gayle in. We already have a great winger in Edwards and as people have said we really don't see a lot of Philips throughout the season due to his injury record. And if we get Matheus Pereira then we will be a real threat on the counter
1 cautionary thought, whilst I agree that with the right money being put on the table I would have to let him go, it’s unreasonable to assume that any of the kids can fill the gap throughout a full season in the championship, we will have to have a replacement despite the potential that the lads have
According to the Brummie Mail Villa haven't even been in touch about him.https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/matt-phillips-brom-villa-transfer-16668548
If we can get close to 10 million we should undoubtedly sell him. With his injury record and one year on contract it makes perfect sense. You have to seriously doubt him influencing our season across enough of the 40 odd games
Our most dangerous attacking player..on his day unplayable. Offer him a new contract. Selling this criminally underrated playerfor anything less than 10 mil would be stupid. Keep him fit and he will tear up this league.
Considering we have quite a few wider options, why not play Marty up front? He knows where the goal is and has a presence. Did he not do this for Scotland at some point?
