That’s Random… why would he want to go there, I suppose it’s the Mail

Would be Rangers if anywhere.

And we're not going to accept 3 mill unless we have a suitable replacement lined up for similar money, before the end of the month.

I wouldn't take 3mill. Can see his improvement since Critch has come in (Reading & Sheff Utd two of his best games in a QPR shirt) and he is pivotal to how we play.

If £3m had been offered I would have thought we'd have accepted it so I think it is boll@ks.
Brentford apparently interested in Dieng as they're about to lose Raya. £8m and they can have him!

You'd only accept it unless you have a replacement lined up!

Think what you like about Dykes but we barely have any experienced strikers as it is.

Surely we would have a list of strikers that we have scouted and x y z contingency plans if not then again have to look at the way the club is being run

Dykes is a terrible player so unless we think we can get more it's a ridiculous decision to reject 3 million unless of course its all bollocks 🤔

They probably do, but if the options are the same or better than Dykes, then the club they are at will want the same amount of money or more for him. Depending on the offer from Millwall, we may only get a small amount of that 3m up front so still wouldn't have a lot to spend.

madness to accept any bid for him esp in jan mkt , and even more mental if he goes to burnely with ashley barnes as his replacement as part of the deal

Milwall spent reasonably big in the summer, £1.6m for the Dutch lad. Be very surprised if they had £3m to spend in January too.

Millwall Dykes bid supposedly rejected on 09:32 - Jan 20 with 7165 viewsBAWHoops

£3m after add ons according to WLS

https://www.westlondonsport.com/qpr/qpr-reject-offer-from-millwall-for-dykes?utm

Think we paid close to £2m for him so whilst it would be a profit it's not a fantastic return.
Once they are over £4m we need to seriously consider it.
We aren't going up, probably aren't going down and need the money to refresh the side.

Have to assume Dieng and Chair will be off in the summer as well, hopefully we can get around £10m combined for them plus £4m for Dykes gives us a nice bit of cash to rebuild.

Lets not forget that the Eze money built a promotion capeable side.... they just timed it wrong and went for a calendar year instead of a season!!

Plenty of us don't rate Dykes but if all this interest in him is true, there must be something he does right, and our recruitment of him not entirely wrong.

Don't think it would be terrible to sell and bring in Barnes (if that's an option) until the end of the season and then revisit then - only problem is it again leaves us with two loans and no striker that we own!

If Stoke are interested as well as story suggests then try and get as much as we can for him and reinvest although easier said than done.

Don’t see the benefit of offloading him to a team in the same division. Different if the bid was from Scotland but then only if we have a better replacement ready to go immediately.

Very skeptical of how much of that £3m is guaranteed, but i would be very very inclined to sell him if we get any decent money for him

we have an FFP gap to fill, and this will partially help fill it... we're not going up or down and we have lowe, so we are basically well situated to at least stay up... keeping dykes wont have a material impact on our final position

anyone whose read the commentary on last weeks match and the impact lowe had will immediately see how much dykes cripples our attack. he is the single reason our attack is so flaccid, and it has nothing to do with his mediocre to below average goal scoring record

-he cant run behind a defense, which exacerbates our sideways/no tempo passing issue... when we play lowe, we will see how his runnign behind and into channels creates space for willock and chair to operate, thereby creating some tempo and forward thrust into our play

-he cant run at defenders with the ball.. not essential for a striker and not a skill many have in this division, but again limits us going forward and shrinks the pitch for us.... see what a difference the luton striker made by being able to run at our backline

-his skill set is aerial duels, but in basically 1 in 2 matches, the center back will have him in his pocket.... he vacillates b/w these performances, so we get the predictable "best game for rangers" comment after a random match where he wins a few headers. but totally invisible in the other half

-hes not a technical player so cant link up with the likes of chair willock and roberts in the final third...

and finally, his goal scoring record is totally average... 1 in 4 (of which many are pens) and blows hot and cold, so we have to regularly endure 7 or 8 matches without a goal

we are very quick to sack managers and pay all the associated costs... so why not get rid of dykes, who Im sketpcial will improve much at this stage.... take the money and reinvest next season

In defence of Dykes...

He does often go to run behind, especially in the first 30 mins. But nobody ever releases him and he does tend to give up on it.

I don't think Willock and Chair trust him. They play by themselves, or with Paal, Laird etc. But they don't play with him. They'll choose other passes, they won't do one-twos with him, they won't put him through. He's not the focal point of our attack even though he's the focal point of our attack, if you know what I mean. He's not integrated with the rest of our team's play. I'd love to see the stats of how many passes he receives from Willock and Chair and how that compares to other players. The number of times they ignore him is starting to grate actually - even as I've loved watching them play.

I think he might do very well somewhere with a team that trusts him. He's trying. When he's happy he's a handful. He's shown he can score every kind of goal. He's a good age and physique. But currently he doesn't suit us / we don't suit him.

Even if we reinvested the full £3m in a replacement, which seems unlikely given our FFP position, we would struggle to get much for our money, it would probably be a hopeful punt on someone from a lower level. £3m is nothing when it comes to Championship standard and if we try to buy now, we will be trying to get someone at the most expensive time of year.

In any case, Critchley has been onboard for all of 40 days. Shouldn't we be waiting to see what he can achieve with Lyndon?

Dykes enables us to play out and get the ball up the pitch and also helps out defensively. I want him to improve, his finishing is not good enough, but... that goes for the whole team, we are not clinical enough as a team. What was that stat, we were the second or third worst in the division for finishing.

If you are looking at a replacement Ashley Barnes keeps getting linked as is on a free in the summer so might not cost that much. Was a very good target man at Burnley, can't pretend I know much about him though

Wages likely to be a big problem if any truth in it
