    He hasn't even shown enough promise to warrant half of that fee.... Another bonkers transfer if it happens!

    Probably a good place for him to go as they seem to give younger players a chance.

    Crazy fee though. Harvey Barnes was out performing him in the first half of the season in a team in worse form so how much is he worth?

    Bournemouth are the kings of overspending.

    The best I know of for always getting top dollar for every player they sell.
    Jordon Slew £1 million.
    Remember him?

    BTW - we are the worst I know of for player transfers.
    Or should that be the worst I DID know of.
    We will see.
    Reports of money for Pearson look promising.

    They have certainly put us to shame in recent years where transfers are concerned.

    Harvey Barnes is far the better player.
    Great shot and good at getting crosses in.

    Hammill and Barnes on the wings getting crosses into the box for Keifer Moore and McBurnie to latch onto - brilliant !!!

    He ih he ih he ih oh - up the table we will go !!!

    Instead ......... Barnes was ‘unfortunately’ only signed on a short term loan deal - another pointer to the reason Barnsley got relegated - and deserved to get relegated.

    I believe Barnes was recalled by Leicester & his departure was not the reason we got relegated , we were not good enough all over the park , end of

    ….. followed by Keiffer Moore to Rotherham for 250,000 pounds and Tom Bradshaw to Luton for undisclosed, believed to be in region of 125,000 pounds.
    I love being a Barnsley fan, it gives so much scope for entertainment..... and cynicism.

    what you cant believe a player would leave a mid table championship club likely to struggle more this season for a side that is becoming an established Premiership side - I can think of better examples that "footballs fooked " - not least being the 12 million fee for said deal

    Barnes was signed on a season long loan deal, Leicester chose to recall him early.

    He is actually a decent player. Very promising in fact.

    But not worth £12 million. Maybe around ,£5 million

    I have just seen a post from a united fan saying that Brooks is better than Grealish and Maddison. & he is easily worth £35 million and will win silverware in the future and that Bournemouth is only a stepping stone for him.. deluded
