McBurnie to Sheffield Utd/Brighton for £12 million? 06:36 - Jun 21 with 55047 viewsBrynmill_Jack

If this is true we’d be mad not to say yes. Only caveat being that Cooper must have funds to replace him. Even better if we could bump it up to £15million

Replacing a 20+ goal striker will not be easy. We were lacking depth in that department to begin with.

£12 M for A 23 yr old 20 plus championship striker???
(coooer will not see any of that money BTW)
It’s nowhere near the price required!
We must be starting the negotiations at £25M at least or walk away...
We’ll probably get the “player wanted the move” tag soon 🙄

We'd be silly not to take it, though being how he's not pulled up trees in that level for us in the past, I find this feeling like a rumour. Or maybe thats the loud prayers we don't lose him.

£12m is a shocking price for a young proven goalscorer at this level.

Just please get in your head NO money will be reinvested into the squad due to the "black hole", we sell our best players in bulk every window, we will get relegated it's as simple as that.

Edit - The more I read your post the more I get confused, what in your head is telling you that we'd be "mad" to turn down £12m. Madness.

If it closes the "black hole" once and for all, and we can stay up without him. ( A BIG if) then ship him out.

Its just a ride.

He went out on loan half way through to Barnsley. From what I remember he made a big impact when coming on against Watford with the two late goals to give us a glimmer of hope.

Ross McCormack went for £13m when he was 29.

Very good player. If he wants out the club wont stand in his way.

I hope he stays another season.

He is a 20 million + player so selling at 12 is shortsighted and ill advised.

James Gone - Burnie going - who's next how are we supposed to progress selling all of our best players all the time.

We saw what happened in the Premiership relegation, where will we end up 2nd division?

There is no benefit in selling unless all the money comes back in for more players

If an offer comes inform a Premier League club McBurnie is going to jump at the chance and Swansea City Football Club will sell because all clubs sell players when it makes financial sense and the player wants to move on.
I'm confident Birch will ensure we get the best deals possible which will take into account transfer, wages and 'fees'.
The key to transfers in will be moving the Ayews and Borja & until that happens don't expect much movement.
Should McBunie leave we will get a new centre forward but almost certainly from a lower leagues or from other teams academies for whom we would be a steppingstone.

We'd be fecking nuts to let McB go unless we really have to.

Negotiations for £25m would end there as he'll struggle to reach double figures in the Premier League. Looked like little boy lost in the admittedly rare chances he got with us at that level, and despite reaching 20 goals in the Championship, did little to persuade me he's up to the step up. If I thought the £12m would be spent on the team I'd be all for it, but chances are it'll go down the same black hole as Dan James' fee. The only thing in it's favour is that an extra £12m would make the club more attractive to prospective buyers, so we can get rid of this shower of shite of a syndicate once and for all.

It was a decent price last summer too, and not a lot has changed since them. Vydra went to Burnley for £11m last summer.

I'm far from convinced Ollie's got the pace and strength to make it in the PL, so whatever we get for him (if he moves) I can see it being a waste for both teams. Keep him if we can as we'd have been stuffed without his goals last season (none of our other forwards offer a regular threat).

Premier League club make a genuine offer for one of our players, player will be gone by his choice. The only thing we can do is negotiate the best price that we can get.

Save me the "stick him in the reserves to rot" nonsense.

If he wants out, out he will go.

I want a mate like Flashberryjacks, who wears a Barnsley jersey with "Swans are my second team" on the back.

It’s more the inevitable ‘replace him for peanuts’ scenario that people take issue with.

Selling your best players and reinvesting is part of the game for almost every club. Managed decline isn’t.

We looked good in games without him last season. But we had DJ then.

Finishing chances wasn't our strong point, but we were creative enough through the whole team after Christmas. Ideally we'd want a Sinclair-type to come in on the left and bulk up those numbers. Routledge was class leading the line, and we've got loads who want to play at 10 (Celina, McKay, Byers).
