.   I think it would be a great partnership him and Gayle. Can't see why they would want J Rod if they get Vydra
I thought we were interested in Vydra who is slightly sharper than JRod. However, no way should we trade in JRod for a lesser carthorse type striker like Woods.

Thought he worked very hard and got himself in good positions. Unfortunately for him he had zero support from a flat and slow midfield

Meh, for 18 million i'd sell to be honest, i don't think he's all people say he is. PROVIDED we've got a proven replacement lined up, i'd take 18 million and get someone like Vydra in.

Wouldn’t matter if it was £40 million if we don’t reinvest, personally I wouldn’t allow anyone to leave at this stage (other than HRK) unless we have a ready made replacement
It is not the taking part, but the winning that counts.

Vydra signed for Burnley today, I agree selling Rodriguez might not be that bad at that price I just can’t see who we replace him with in 48 hours

Presumably Assombalonga is still available, lost some faith in J-Rod, looks like a lost sheep although I did notice a couple of times second half we could have played him in and shot instead.

Shouldn't be judging him on a couple of performances. Last season he scored enough important goals, and this season he'll score more.

Must cash in and replace. £18 million is daylight robbery.

£18M is serious money for Jay Rod. I like him as a player but from a sober viewpoint, I can’t help but feel he has failed to fulfill the expectations we had for him when we first signed Jay. Cash in and re-invest THIS WINDOW. I’ve got horrible flashbacks to the late sale of Rob Earnshaw and not replacing those goals. My heart says we will do the obvious thing and replace Jay Rod but my head tells me the club will do the opposite to the obvious and leave us with Gayle and HRK as our forward options......

Oooooohhhh West Bromwich Albion! #SPRAY32

It's a shame we lack a good scouting structure. If we had one, we could accept the huge money Burnley seem happy to pay. I still think Rodriguez could fire in this league, but 2 poor games so far show he isn't worth what they are offering.

Replacing him is the issue - we are s*** at recruitment.

Agree wit the above, i just don't get the love in with this bloke. 18 mil seems more than fair for a very average player if only we had a replacement lined up so we wouldn't have to go scrambling around for any Tom Dick or Harry !!

Burnley hoping to complete move for Jay Rodriguez today. New bid submitted to West Brom last night and player is keen to re-join club he left in 2012

That’s a tweet from Ed Aaron’s of the Guardian.

I’d be asking for Chris Wood in return.

I wouldn't be too disappointed if this happens. I assume a replacement is lined up if he is allowed to leave, so I'm optimistic we could have a better option as competition for Gayle by the end of August.

Agreed. £18m for a 29 years old striker is a good deal for me.
But we focus on local players only, it makes us difficult to find replacement.

No it doesn’t.  Only the Premier League window closes tomorrow.

Daily Mail apparently reporting that Dyche will offer Sam Vokes as part of the deal.   Now that would be an interesting signing.  Vokes and Gayle could be quite a partnership.

Chris Woods has to be one of the worst strikers I've seen at the club. Up there with Anichebe and Fabian DeFreitas.
