He’s gone off the boil Maybe time to cash in Out issues lie elsewhere |  |

Off the boil maybe a bit strong. He's played about 90mins so far and thrives on service. Yesterday he didn't get any. Because he's ours fans believe we should get £20-25m for him. I don't think they would value him at that if he was at another club. |  | |  |
| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 08:57 - Aug 23 with 3547 views | Whiterockin | He has to.move on for what we can get. Having one number 9 on the pitch and two on the bench is restricting our options as the game goes on. |  | |  |

I’m just getting the feeling a fit Ross Stewart would give us far more options with delivery into the box. |  |

Morning He was on fire last season so let’s say he’s now just smouldering |  |

| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 09:14 - Aug 23 with 3457 views | Thornburyswan | Yes from me - anything north of £15M plus achievable add ons & a sell on clause. |  | |  |
| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 09:15 - Aug 23 with 3454 views | RodgerTheDodger | My guess is he was expecting to go to the big show, and it isn't happening. Hence severe disappointment. If nothing happens by the end of the window then reset, re-think his role in the team and give him something to buckle down to. I'd be surprised if he doesn't do it. The only offers I've heard of so far have been derisory, so no, never bend over unless you have to. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 09:21 - Aug 23 with 3432 views | Dr_Winston | We should hold out for the price we always wanted. Not sure why the vibe is shifting against Vipotnik. He's played about 90 minutes of league football so far this season, a good 30 minutes of it with absolutely no service yesterday and already has an assist. I'd much rather have him available to us than depend on Idah and another striker with a very patchy injury record. |  |
| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |

This ^ If he goes then so be it but as you say hes only played 90 mins, if he stays past this window he will get more gametime and hopefully start hitting the back of the net again. |  | |  |

Difficult question but I do tend to match your view and he hasn't had a pre season as well as he could have. The downside of course we could use the money to strengthen especially as we might have lost our centre back pairing. |  | |  |
| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 10:19 - Aug 23 with 3204 views | Demitrius | I can't add to what Dr W has already said other than he's also had a calf injury and it's human nature to be unsettled by transfer talk. I'll be glad when the window closes. My personal view is that it should close at midnight the day before the season starts not 4 weeks into it... |  |

That makes sense to me, but I’m thinking more about ‘should we’ than advocating it. It’s a fine balance between sticking with him to selling him. Clearly Stewart was brought in to back up Idah, IMO. And there will be interest this week. I’m still not convinced by the injury and think it was more of a preservation thing with him carrying a minor knock. Either way freeing him up would save the club 100k or so a month. However, Shamrock are weighing into the club, so maybe it’s all good ? |  |

| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 10:29 - Aug 23 with 3174 views | swansjack84 | If Vip stays he will be a good squad player who I think will reach 10 to 15 goals But I just have gut feeling he won't hit the heights of last season. I stand by my opinion last season, we have to cash in on him. Anything from 18 to 20 million. Otherwise I can only see his stock going down. Idah is a Matos type of player. People are saying Vip didn't have the service yesterday. True. But Idah created far more chances by his willingness to press and get something out of it Vip presses but rarely gets anything from it. For me Idah will be our main stiker and Stuart an impact sub. [Post edited 23 Aug 10:30]

| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 11:05 - Aug 23 with 3013 views | hobo | I think we should loan him out for the season for around 5m. If he gets 10+ goals in the prem then his value will be 30m-40m |  | |  |
| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 11:23 - Aug 23 with 2952 views | Gardelino | I agree with the concensus on here that we should probably cash in now for anything north of £15m. I know he hasn't had much time on the pitch but his body language suggests to me that he's ready to go. When Idah was on the pitch he was dropping deeper to get on the ball to link the play whereas Vipotnik was just moving purely across the front line waiting for things to come to him. |  | |  |

Zan is our best choice at 9 , his lay offs and ability to hold the ball and bring players into the game are exactly what we need in our formation Idah is a good second striker and is better when he comes in off the left , like he’s done his whole career ,Stewart is an old fashioned ,no nonsense 9 ,who needs good and consistent service 3 different types of strikers,who each have their own strengths and weaknesses Zan is the better all rounder and I hope we keep him There are other players who will probably go before the window shuts but I hope Zan isn’t one of them |  | |  |

We were saying don't sell him under 20m. Modern world of football. I remain don't sell under 20m with add ons. |  | |  |

Not sure anyone has lost faith. Just asking a question, more from a business point of view. |  |

Matos and club have what looks like a headache and big decisions to make. |  | |  |

Totally agree. Vip happy here. If a team comes in and offers upwards of 20 million he will go. That's football. Cant believe some of the ridiculous comments totally undervaluing our best asset. |  |

His value is what someone will pay, currently nowhere near £20M or he would have been long gone. |  | |  |

With respect you are being optimistic about £20 million he's only worth what someone is willing to pay it seems we are determined for him to go the closer we get to the end of the window his price will drop |  |

| Time to negotiate a deal for Vipotnik ? on 12:47 - Aug 23 with 2661 views | blackswan | Seems like a lot of people want him sold? I dont get it top scorer in the championship last year in a team that hardly created loads of chances we need three strikers for a long season and vipi is our best |  | |  |
