I'm very surprised that his stance on signing or not signing a contract extension with us has not been subject of any media reports.

He's done well this season and if he signed a new contract it would help us a lot in terms of the fee we could demand.

As expected, he owes us nothing and has actually done very little to help us since he has been here, why start now?

[Evo_Baggies]

Another solid performance that in a few weeks time will be forgotten about.

No chance on the fluke goal and made about 5 saves, of which he would have deservedly been slated for, had any of them gone in. As you say solid as I say, the least we should expect.

I would agree with both you and Evo. Safe pair of hands in difficult conditions, albeit most efforts he had to deal with were fairly routine. Well protected by the defence and midfield but played his part when called on.

[wodenson46]

Have never met SJ, no doubt he is a very likeable young bloke and my criticism has never been intended as a personal affront to the guy,  but his performances over the years have still cost us more than he has saved us  so the sooner he goes the better. I sincerely hope he has a very successful career, but  with another club.

Played well tonight, still a bit flappy for me,
Overall I prefer Patricio's command of the box to SJ's reactionary keeping

100%. Several crosses that Rui took easily that SJ would not have considered coming for. If we do swap keepers this summer I'm really hoping we can get someone in who likes to command his box.

Descent game again tonight for us had no chance with goal and my player of the season especially with the dross who are there to help him defend, Bartley and Ajey looked like Bambi on ice with Furlong doing his usual no show.

[SmethDan]

Steady game with some decent if routine saves in very testing conditions. I'll be honest, as the wind and rain picked up before the game I was worried the greasy surface and a few high balls may have got the better of him. Stayed strong, positioned himself well for the most part and got Semi in particular out of the sticky stuff though. Fair play.

[WBArgo]

Man Utd in for him now apparently, with Spurs already linked 

I like him and he's improved a lot but is massively over-rated by the media. If Man Utd are buying him, you can add a good 30% to his value.

[TheJacko2000]

Percy reckons we want £20 million.

So that's him staying then and leaving on a free next summer. We never learn. Anything above £8 million is having the buyers pants down.

[gazberg]

If we can get the £20m Percy says we want below i'd be delighted.

Says we have a 15% sell on to Man Utd as well in case people can't read it in full. Says Man Utd, Spurs and West Ham interested.

[Atomic]

Cant see us getting £20 mil.

Half of that maybe.

[Adder]

We know how it usually works. We say £20m, someone offers £10m, then we sell for £12m rising to £15m based on conditions.

[WBA.R.K]

Given the contract situation and the players eagerness to play in the prem I would happily take anything over £10m

[Standaman]

I am puzzled as to why anyone would think that Johnstone would be a sufficient  upgrade on their current incumbent as spend £20m on him when he would be a free agent next year

Nobody would.

We won’t get anywhere near that amount for someone who will only be second choice at another club.

I’d love to know the clubs valuation of Pereira if this is anything to go by.

I've got no idea why you'd puzzle yourself over total goldilocks either.

I want a round the world cruise for my birtnday dont mean its going to happen. Anything more than what we initially paid out for the man is good business for us. I honestly wonder besides possibly sides coming up where he could go in as #1

[TheBaggieMan]

Percy’s right.
Sam Johnstone is one of the top five goalkeepers in the country and probably worth a lot more than £20m.
Has to be our Player of the Year

[johnny Cash]

I’ve no problem with the message being £20m but there’s a very limited market so I don’t think we will get. 

Spurs
Leeds
Burnley if Pope goes
Man Utd if De Gea goes

Those are four I’ve seen credited with an interest.

West Ham and Palace also have purported interest.

West Ham is probably the most realistic as they’d both have the position available (Fabianski is 36 and while just signing an extension, only has one year on his contract) and the money to buy him.

£20,000,000 though? Grab both of their arms at the soggy end and pull very, very hard; very, very quickly.

it’s in line with the values of the likes of Pope and Ramsdale. We could get it but probably closer to £15 million +\- a couple million.
