maydrakin Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I haven’t seen a great deal of him, but if he’s worth a million for a few minutes of play, then selling him is something you should consider with a high sell on clause. No doubt Roymac will be saying we should have sold him this summer in 5 years time when he turns out like Lee Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbobram Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 If we did sell him, it would go completely against what Mel said weeks ago about bringing the youth through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel goes completely against a lot of the things he talks about. You quickly get used to it. I find it easier to just ignore him, like white noise.

Kamikaze Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Will be good to see more opportunities for the likes of Luke Thomas, Elsnik, Vernam, Bennett, Gordon, Hanson and Lowe; everyone asking for youth in this side and these lads are in prime position.

Parsnip Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I'd take a straight swap for Andy Carroll. Perfect Rowett type player. Just think what Gary could achieve with a player like that! I tell you what, if managerless West Ham are looking for someone to get the best out of their current players - Gary is a good shout! Has he ruled himself out yet? If not, why not? Contract time Mel!

I'll save you the trouble of waiting then - sell him now. Or not. Don't think he's ready for the first team tbh. Has lots of pace but not sure he's yet got the nouse to go with it. Prefer Gordon atm tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needles Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 The lad has the ball under control at pace, and turns quicker than a puppy in a butchers. Goals, assists, dribbles. Skill. He's raw, he's not going to play 40 games next season, but he's exciting and he should be around the 18 here not out on loan from Wet Spam U23's. £silly money talks, but it would have to be bloody silly or there's no point. He could be £20m in two years the way transfers are going. £1m now? Nah. Not for the Wurzel Messi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbobram Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 To sell him for a mil now and not see what he can become would be criminal IMO. I want to see more of him next season. Along with Elsnik and Bogle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PistoldPete2 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Very odd that Thomas wasn't at least on the bench for the play off games. We really needed some fresh legs for the second game, not joe Ledley and David nugent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s only played 30 odd minutes for first team football for us so think it would have been a little unrealistic for him to be able to step up for a long period in a play off final. Got to bring young players through slowly and Rowett has said many times a promotion race isn’t the place to do it. I agree with this. That’s what pre season is for. Reckon we will see a lot of Thomas, Guy, Bogle, Lowe, Elsnik is pre season and then we can go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Palmer was the spot for that attacking change in the play off. Would've been Thomas or him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
