" SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 2:30 pm

It's been reported today that Sheffield Wednesday are expected to come back with s 2nd offer for Cardiff City Captain Sean Morrison, they are apperently very very keen on him as their defence is their weakest part of their team.


Would you sell him and how much for?

Minimum 5m and then buy Jagielka and make him captain!!

yes and for as much as we can, I think 3m is fair but as they seem so keen I'd try and push for 5m. I'd hope Manga and Bamba would be first choice and Connolly is more than capable as back up. I'd then invest that money in a younger CB to try and push through and add more quality in central midfield.

id make them up it to 5m and then let him go,hes not gna play as much now manga has signed on and we have plenty of cover in connolly and peltier

Sell him for 5 mill then make Declan John Captain :laughing5: Nah Bamba or Gunnars for me, the vocal giants.

We'd have to get a very decent replacement for the £6m they pay us, whether they're good enough to fill a void when Manga and Bamba are out, or young with the potential to learn off of them.
Make Gunnar captain then

Id snap there hand off for anything around 4 mill.
As long as its invested directly into the team. We have more than enough cover at centre back.
That 4 million invested correctly could be the difference between fighting for a play off place and pushing the top 2

5/6m for him, take it. Bamba, Manga, Connolly and I bet Peltier could play there. That £6m could fund a good striker!

You're all forgetting we also have Greg Halford...

I'd let Morrison go for 5 mill.

Make sure we get it all up front not this bloody instalment nonsense. (4.5 million. plus 20% sell on clause.)

If Warnock wants quality players in the summer, he needs the capital raised from transfer fees.

So I would hold out for a minimum of £5 million at least.

The make Gunarsson captain and offer him a new 3 year deal :D

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Its ridiculous the amount of criticism Morrison gets...he's a very decent championship defender.

However, as they say every player has a price and for anything over 3 million I personally think we should consider it.

We are strong at CB and have 4/5players who can do the job and possibly the money could be used in other arears were we are not so strong

Difficult descision coming up for Warnock

No haven't forgotten

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 4:39 pm

I don't mind him mind he's a decent CB and I'd rather him over Connolly personally who's a good stop gap but nothing more. Ok he switches off now and again but we've seen worse - but like someone else said everyone has their price

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 4:52 pm

Everyone is assuming we're only going to play 2 centre backs. I think warnock is looking to play 3 at the back plus wing backs on occasions . He may also play bamba as a holding midfielder. I agree 5m is probably an offer we won't refuse but warnock will still need to buy another cb if morris on goes. Jagielka certainly ticks a lot of boxes for me.

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 5:02 pm

I would sell him for bug money as we have bamba and manga also Patterson

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 5:02 pm

Keep him for definite. Improved last season. Sets up goals and scores them as well.
If we're going to play three centre-backs then Morrison, Bamba and Manga are the obvious choices.

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 5:08 pm

Sell

Last year of contract , sell unless he signs a new contract

Probably last of the large wages under Ollie, so will not be cheap to keep

If Michael keane is off to everton for 25million then hes got to be worth 10mil seems all this pathetic money is being chucked about :laughing6:

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 5:13 pm

I'd say 6 tbf

If they pay 5 mill, they can have Halford for free, as part of the deal :lol:

Sell and sign Bassong on a free?

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 6:40 pm

I think Morrison is a good defender at this level, gets far too much stick on here.

But if anyone were to offer £5m for him, it's difficult to turn down.

Every player has his price.

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 7:12 pm

Doneil Henry on a free as the back up CB play Pelts Bamba and Manga as a 3

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 7:45 pm

I'd have taken the £3m for him.

Isn't it the case that Davidson is capable of playing centre half as well?

I actually wouldn't mind if Morrison stayed provided Bamba and Manga are the first choice centre backs.

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 8:02 pm

We have plenty of cover now and this would open the door for gunnerson to be captain who should have been picked ages ago ahead of Marshall and Morrison in my view with his experience in the club and he is a proven captain at international level.

More money for an attacking midfielder too

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

Mon Jul 03, 2017 8:11 pm

Same as many on here I'd sell and make Gunnar captain Bamba and Manga first choice and Connely, Halford and Peltier all capable back up. :ayatollah:

Re: " SECOND BID EXPECTED FOR CARDIFF CITY CAPTAIN "

People don't appreciate Morrison enough, yes everybody has there price but for Me would be sending out the wrong message if we sold him.
