So proven managers with better players can’t get consistent results with him but Coventry think they can elicit 8 million pounds of value from him. I will be glad when saner heads prevail for the good of the game.
Some Coventry fans seem to think they’ll bid for JY too.Can't see them bidding close to £4m for Yates as well?
Yep this is the problem when other clubs know you have money in the bank, everyone expects you to pay to whack.If they get £18m for Gyokeres, there's no reason they can't afford both tbh.
Sorry don’t get the logicYep this is the problem when other clubs know you have money in the bank, everyone expects you to pay to whack.
However, sell Gyorkeres and get Yates and Simms and still have a further 6M in the bank it could be considered good business.
Not really as we manage to sell our better players for peanuts.If the scout guy we got from Coventry can unearth us one (like he did with Gyokores) we too could be quids in in a year or two.
Where’s the valuation come from? Based on what? Who will Everton move for and how much will that person cost? Crazy stuff.Great player I really rate him but not worth that. It’s a gamble which I hope pays off for him and the club.
Good player not sure he’s worth 8 million thoughSimms is class will be money well spent
I should imagine that figure includes a lot of add-ons, much of which will likely never be paid.8 million... that's a hell of a lot for a club like Coventry to be spending on 1 player.
He’ll be one of – if not the best – Championship striker next season. Very good player.Simms is class will be money well spent
Which means Ker chink ££££££££Transfermarkt reckons 4m; same as Jerry Yates?
He’s not done anything apart from show glimpses of potential outside of the premier league.Good player not sure he’s worth 8 million though
And where did their sudden surge of prosperity come from? They are spending what they haven’t received yet.Says it all about the state of football that a club that was financially and organisationally in the toilet recently can spend daft money like this.
They've paid an initial £3.5 million. The additional mainly hinges on promotion to the Premier League, at which point, it won't matterAnd what idiot sees Ipswich had a four million bid rejected and then doubles the bid with no bids from other clubs?
They have. Gyokores to Sporting Lisbon being announced tomorrow.And where did their sudden surge of prosperity come from? They are spending what they haven’t received yet.
He hasn’t failed wherever he’s played?? Odd postSo proven managers with better players can’t get consistent results with him but Coventry think they can elicit 8 million pounds of value from him. I will be glad when saner heads prevail for the good of the game.
Doh !!!And where did their sudden surge of prosperity come from? They are spending what they haven’t received yet.
Did Sunderland sign him? Nope. Could he impress any Everton manager starving for goals to to get a regular starting position? Nope. Did he have to drop a division to get a permanent move? Yep. So he is potential on legs and has not succeeded yet.He hasn’t failed wherever he’s played?? Odd post
2.5 for Bowler btwNot really as we manage to sell our better players for peanuts.
£4 Mill for Bowler and some saying £4 Mill for JY is ok
Sunderland were gutted when he got recalled by Lampard at Everton who decided to not start him.Did Sunderland sign him? Nope.

Agreed. Just waiting for Bury to bid 5m for Jerry.Says it all about the state of football that a club that was financially and organisationally in the toilet recently can spend daft money like this.
I've heard 2.5 & 4m, not confirmed anywhere as far as I know. Feel free to put me right though. Clubs really should be more transparent on transfer fees imo.2.5 for Bowler btw
If Sunderland was a success they would have bought him. Not at Newcastle levels but there is big money behind that club now.Sunderland were gutted when he got recalled by Lampard at Everton who decided to not start him.
Think Dyche started him once away at Anfield upfront on his jacks.
He’s had 3 loan spells.
Us - Success
Hearts- Success
Sunderland- Success
No player has done anything at Everton recently, especially strikers.
Proven he can score goals in the Championship so the initial 3.5m looks worth it. Nice to see a club sell and immediately reinvest.
So you’re saying his Sunderland loan spell wasn’t a success?If Sunderland was a success they would have bought him. Not at Newcastle levels but there is big money behind that club now.
You talk pony. Just because a player is successful doesn’t mean he is signed by the club. We’re not talking Championship Manager, there’s thousands of reason why a player is not signed.If Sunderland was a success they would have bought him. Not at Newcastle levels but there is big money behind that club now.
