i can't see him going to Liverpool they have Divock Origi who they loaned out to Lillie coming back next year
If a club came in with 25million in January then I would snap their hands off.If we reject it and Saido goes on to have a poor rest of the season then there is no way he would fetch that money in the summer.
I think we all know £25mill would be enough.
No we don't.A direct replacement would be £12-15 minimum. Selling him to make a small profit would be very short sighted. Young, British, Scoring.... Worth more than money to us and I'd be very surprised at a sale this Jan.
It's easy to say we should not sell him no matter what the price but if a genuine big offer came in, it would be hard for a club of our size to turn down. Going on the crazy prices paid for british players recently I would say £25million was about where that offer becomes tempting. However, there isn't a club at the moment that I would say would be willing to splash that on him and that's why I think he will stay at least until the summer. I would love him to stay, become and Albion legend and win a couple of trophies but sadly it don't work like that anymore and he'll be off as soon as a tempting offer comes his way, no matter how much he comes out and says different. The risk of course of not selling is that he is a one season wonder or he gets injured and ends up like Ishmael Miller did.

Why would we accept £25 million from the Scousers when they were happy to pay £50 million for Andy Carroll?
Exactly what I think but got called a Finance Director!
It was £35 mil for Carroll they sold Torres for £50 mil to Chelski.Personally think £25 mil is about right. We'll need a good percentage of that to bring in another equivalent striker who is perhaps more proven.
He has to do it consistently over a long period to be worth the kind of money being talked about here
does anyone know DEFINITAVELY what minimum % of a transfer fee a player gets?
Strong rumours around the stadium, Said could be off in Jan for £25m+, top PL teams like Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs all sniffing, and with Brown waiting in wings, they could well accept.
