    It just shows how much we get our pants pulled down on transfer fees.

    He's bound to have matured and is probably a better player than when we had him on loan.
    However given that he's been playing for Peterborough in League One, you would question
    whether he can cut it in the Championship and more to the point, is he really worth £10 million.?

    Personally I doubt it. If as a full Wales international , Kieffer left Wigan for Cardiff for £1.5 million
    you might be compelled to say that Toney would realistically be at around that price.? All we can
    say is that we are going to find out in the not too distant future.

    Only as good as the players around him, at brentford I think he'l score goals. Or at the very least have plenty of chances!

    Ivan Toney is a better athlete than Kieffer Moore though - in my opinion anyway. A better all round footballer and coming in to his prime at 24 years old.

    Is he worth £6 million rising to £10 million? Not sure. I remember Waghorn going to Derby for £7 million and thinking that was a mental signing. I'd rather have Toney, and in a better team it's likely he'll be a better player

    He's only 5 foot 10, no good to us

    Not really the best example to use. Wigan are desperate for the cash and need to sell ASAP. Peterborough are in a better position to negotiate a good deal for themselves.

    He's scored a lot of goals since he was on loan with us. That was 4 years ago now.

    It's just Barnsley that strikers don't score goals for, right?

    Didn’t he score the goal that ensured our last promotion?
