ColchesterRam Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Appearances: 128 (56), Goals: 171/3 of those were last season... ....and don't forget tonight's goal that went in the back of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Even if he handed in a transfer request I can see their chairman refusing it. I had a read through his Q&A answers tonight and he just seems like he's arrogant and what he wants, he gets. Powell wanted to re-sign Gobern to a new contract and the chairman refused and called him a 'sick note' during the Q&A. He's said Vaughan won't get a new deal because he's always injured too. So he's ignoring Powell's (And probably the player's) wishesI see what you mean, CamThere are no cheap players around now. We need to look abroad.

RiddingsRam Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 How much did Huddersfield sign him for ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 How much did Huddersfield sign him for ?About 800k, but from a Boro side who didn't need him. A Huddersfield side who see him as their key player are likely to want slightly more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiddingsRam Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 £5 million though ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamLad1884 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Two bids in already and they're holding out for £3 million, seems a lot to me, but then again is it the going rate for championship midfielders now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Clement quite rightly did not comment on Butterfield but he did not say that it was out of the question. Derby need promotion this season. we need to splash the cash, get promotion and then if we get relegated we can try again and money will not be an issue. We need to speculate to accumulate. Mel Morris said thast he would follow Stoke's pattern and throw lumps of money at it. We do not know how big those lumps are but now is the time to speculate. i am certain that Mel will get his money back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukedcfc Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I would pay 3m if it means we have someone who can dictate a game in the absence of Hughes. Thorne is good but he's still feeling his way back in after a long time out. He looked shattered at the end of the game tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Sun - Derby are making a £3.5million move for Huddersfield’s Jacob Butterfield.The Rams hope to seal a deal for the midfielder, 25, this week with Will Hughes injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I think we'll get him but may have to pay a little more than we'd have otherwise liked to.We've got money & no midfielders, sides are going to want to get every last penny out of us whilst we are in a situation where we need midfielders fast.

Basically if we want to get a player good enough to start for us, we're going to have to look at PL fringe players or abroad. Any midfielder in this league who will be worth signing will already be a regular at their club.Team with money + desperate to fill a position x time running out for permanent transfer window = inflated prices. There's not a we can do about any of those right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloughandtaylor Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 He is a must have now ....with midfielders 3 out. Once we have them back he will give us more options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernRam Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 If he signs for £3.5 million it's very good business! Let's not forget that may not all be upfront cash.The very fact that we launched this bid immediately after having 2 more midfielders sidelined shows he's our man and I reckon he'll be announced before Friday!

Ramism Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 At this point of the window selling clubs will try to drag it out to deadline day to get top dollar. On the other hand how would they then replace their best player if left until deadline day as wouldnt they then be in our predicament with clubs pushing the price of a replacement up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodypecker Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 No...'cos the 'window' would close and then they may well run outta time and have to wait for the loan window to open! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
