Player Sales 12:48 - Jan 21 with 1771 viewsEuroRanger

Saw Hunter's last post in the match thread and wondered who people expect to leave / would be OK with leaving? I imagine Varane will leave in the summer and would be surprised if we don't have people sniffing around Burrell, especially if he comes back and carries on scoring. I also think anyone paying attention would be taking a hard look at Madsen given his performances this season. I'd be happy with ~£6m for Varane, £7-10m for Madsen (though I don't know if someone would pay that) and I'd rather not sell Burrell (though I guess everyone has a price).

PS. This is not an excuse to slag players who aren't performing right now.

Dave Thomas was my moment, Ted.

Not to get all 'Wonder Years' about it but in that moment, little Brian knew that the world would never be the same again.


I had a moment like that at school.

One of Dave Clements sons was training to be a PE teacher, and our teacher bought him in for some work experience.
Pre-Internet, so I'm not sure our teacher understood Dave's story that well, but he knew I was a big QPR fan, so wanted me to talk to his son all about Dave's career.

I must have been about 13, I'm not even sure I could talk to his son about it now.

He really is. The only player who really sees a pass (Chair aside) and can execute it quickly.

Also does a deceptive amount of defensive work these days too.


Not sure I'd ever describe Chair as being able to pass quickly!
He has got great vision, but more often than not he would slow the game down. It was only since Burrell arrived that we were able to go long over the top with someone to run those channels

I'd say Kolli, Dunne and Burrell will attract interest before the start of next season.

I think Varane needs to go anyway, as there seem to be lots of stories about him leaving, which is probably not great for team spirit.
Although I guess the club like it, as it lets everyone know we have an asset to sell?

Maybe this is how those stories get into the public domain, what do i know?

Can't imagine that Dunne is going anywhere. Turns 29 early next season and just signed a long contract here. A team would have to REALLY want him, and given Cook is unlikely to be here that would leave us with only Edwards and Morrison (and the ghost of JCS) as senior CBs so we'd have to find a replacement of our own.

No I said both could see a pass but Madsen could see it quickly. But maybe that wasn’t clearly expressed.

Surely with RDN unable to play 3 game weeks and Esquerdinha out injured, Field must be retained until the summer? I don't think there's anyone else who can do a job at LB.

I hope it doesn't force us into buying RND if this three game week isn't solvable.
We just don't have the depth in that position to carry passengers atm.

I guess the question is, if Field wants to go, then depending on how long is left on his new contract this might be the only time the club gets something.

So, it might be sell him now, or he leaves for free next year, we just don't know anymore!

If the club have an offer for Varane with money rather than a loan and we might buy him in the summer if we go up then Varane will be sold. I just think if anyone comes in with 1-2 million for Field they'll take that, not as if he is playing at the moment.

One thing on Field which some may not know, his appearance last night took him to 188 Apps in the Championship/Division Two in old money. Only Tony Hazell (202) and Ilias Chair (256) have played more games at this level in our history. he moved above Dave Clement (187) last night.

Jimmy Dunne is not far behind on 178, he'll go level with Ian Gillard the next time he plays.

Two lynchpins you can build the side around, captain and a former captain, who know the club, who are committed to it for another 3 seasons after this one… build around them, don’t sell. It is almost certain we will have at least one, possibly more two head coaches over the next 3.5 seasons, so don’t make decisions based on the current guy’s opinions on such players. If Varane sold, play Field.
