More chance of Erik Alonso buying the club, spending 150 million, buying 1 player for 20 million and leading us to champions league football than there is of us signing Liam Delap this season.

I think we should sign him if only for the fact his name is Paled Mail backwards ? 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I saw Rory and I'm assuming his other son walking their dog on Darley Park a few weeks back so they are clearly a local family. If Liam is loaned out to a championship club the ticks in the box for us are, he has a place to stay where he feels comfortable, is guaranteed to play footy and would be coached by Englands top goalscorer. But, the loan fee would surely price us out the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it’s not ideal but regarding the loan fee could they send him us on loan for 6 months (with an agreement to extend another 6 months) in return for one of our better youth prospects on a permanent?

If, In 6 months we have been taken over and are out of the embargo we can pay the loan fee then. If we are still not taken over then defer till the end of season. A promise to pay as it were. We could also offer to pay his full wages as i wouldn't have thought it'd be over 11.5k. Well in my head it could work anyroad ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCRam Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 This could surprisingly make plenty of sense, imagine we sold him with a 20% sell on fee or large add ons in terms of first team appearances, international appearances etc. Man city say we loan you him for season for no fee and no wages and we wipe the clauses away, couod potentially be worth far more to them than one loan fee. Just a thought. hintonsboots and r_wilcockson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought. Short sighted on our part, potentially, but makes sense given our predicament. I’d try and reduce whatever sell on fee rather than completely eradicate it. I would say that there is a deal to be made though. r_wilcockson and DCFC1388 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Brom were linked too but it could come down to game time and he is more likely to get that at a club with a small squad like ours than West Broms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The benefit for Man City sending him here is that they could write off potentially 10s of millions in future fees by just giving him to us for a season (half a season). I do think West Brom would be the best move for him, though, as they have a lot of talent to surround around him. It’s easier to score 30+ goals for West Brom at this level than 15+ for Derby. You will get far more recognition for the former too. Ramarena 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet heavily on that right now. As for relegation, it's much more difficult to predict. I think you know roughly which teams will be down there though - us being one.
