TobyWanKenobi Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 If Rowett and Mel are that confident of not needing one of our top players, I'll be expecting an excellent replacement for Hughes, and promotion this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just supposing Will is on 30,000 a week then time this by 156 weeks over a 3 year contract is 4.68 Million in wages alone . Can DCFC afford To keep Will Hughes !

But who will go to fund team changes which people wanted after last season. We won't be funding many changes with £4.5million! That's not even enough to buy someone worse than Will in the current market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However we know that if he had a season playing like he did in 14/15 or 13/14 he'd be worth around 1.5x to 2x that figure. I think what is getting people wound up is it a really bad time to sell him combined with the fact we have got so much dross in the squad that selling off a prized asset is a little sickening. Don't think Hughes was that great in 13/14 or 14/15(second half of the season) in my opinion. I remember saying on here and many others held the same view that Hughes should have been dropped in favour of Dawkins centrally. I think it was expected that some of our assets were going to sold unfortunately thanks to the bodge up by the football genius Sam Rush. Hughes is great to watch, but Rowett is only bothered about output, which hasn't been anywhere near good enough for a player of his ability.

If that's the kind of manager Rowett is; if he can't see the sheer quality that Hughes has, he doesn't deserve to manage a club like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Here on dcfcfans: Failure - coming close but missing out Not failure - coming nowhere and missing out Bottling - not quite being good enough Not bottling - Being nowhere near good enough. It's better to not try and not succeed than to try and fail. The best thing Rowett can do now is get promotion or finish 15th. Finish 7th? Whoa! You bottle job and failure!!!

valleyram Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 There is no doubt will has the potential to be a top player but for those who say he's worth 15-20 million give me peace if he was that good he would have taken derby to the premiership , he flattered to deceive too much for me and it was plain at the end of last season gr did not fancy him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
