    £12 million. 23yrs old. 120 career games.

    Shows how poor we are in the market if were getting under a million for woodrow and £2 million for morris.

    Need at least £5 million for Styles and same for Helik or were a right laughing stock.

    Could be wrong but I believe we were after him last season when he was at Ipswich but they wanted £1.5M which Swansea paid for him and now they’re going to make a reight profit on him.

    You’re right, we wouldn’t go above 1.2 according to journos at the time. Pathetic club, we’re run by absolute tools.

    We did the same with Charlie Adam at rangers.

    They wanted 500k and we wouldn't go above 450k

    So he went elsewhere and then sold for millions to Liverpool

    Maybe if a PL comes in for either of them, we will. If they don’t we won’t. And they wont. Callum Styles had an awful season, in a team that got relegated. He’s nowhere near £5m in the current market.

    Helik played 3/4 of a season in the team that got relegated by 11 points, with the 2nd worst goal difference. Again, nowhere near £5m

    If we get £5m for both I’d be surprised.

    Id say that the fact both Styles and Helik are still here must suggest we are asking more than other clubs are willing to pay..

    Helik was in the Championship team of the season so has to be worth somewhere near that.

    That was a thoroughly bizarre selection IMO. Still can’t get my head round how that happened.

    I always find those kind of stats misleading, a team at the bottom of the league spending most it’s game time defending will have defenders with higher interceptions/clearances than a team at the top. Same for keepers and saves.

    He is absolutely class though. I was gutted when we were linked & didn't end up getting him. He had a longer contract than our departures did, had a great season, young & English. Surprised he's moved on after such a short spell at Swansea though - but can understand why they have let him leave for that money.

    Are you sure?

    I thought it was the ‘Who Scored’ stats one with Sky Sports? Was all Bournemouth and Fulham in the PFA team of the year.
