Bid rejected for Clarke

[Mowgli]

Trying to turn his head with an offer that clearly isn’t going to be accepted.

Unless their next offer is 8 figures and starts with a 2... the club shouldn't even reply.

What's his da saying?

£30 million he can go

I agree we should keep Clarke but you're massively simplistic when it comes to selling players.

If we got 25m for Clarke and 15 for Patterson (just as an example!). You should be able to build a stronger squad and improve every area of the team with £40m plus any budget we had.

It's why Brentford sold Watkins and benrahma for around 50m while in the championship. Why did they not go backwards then?

The ironic thing is the answer to that is because they stuck to their model, the model which the poster you are replying to thinks we shouldn't have.

Oh yeah we can reject any bid unless there's an a release clause. If Clarke wants to move then that's a problem. We don't want to keep someone who doesn't want to be here.

I'm hopeful he would want to try and get promoted with us and build this team rather than g to a bottom half prem team.

I'd think the lad would be happy enough to give us one more season. If he has another stormer, they'll be bigger clubs than Brentford looking at him and he's already jumped when he was younger.

I doubt we're looking to sell him so someone's going to have to offer big or he just stays.

£9m? can barely get a tub of lurpak for that these days

If they got rid of the model, he would then say we should have kept the model. Guaranteed.

One of the advantages of having him on ignore.

Spurs failed Clarke was never giving a fair crack in the premier league.

Seen a few posts referring to Brentford re the alleged bid, is there any evidence it's them who have made the offer?

Spurs went through some managers around that time didn't they? Clarke could have easily been overlooked when a new man came in through no fault of his own.

Luton have a model?
Sheff Utd? Etc

What's your point?

You want our model to be more like Sheffield United and Luton Town's than Brentford, Brighton, and Dortmund? If not, why bring them up?

 

[chunkyshanhawk53]

Canny lot of vitriol on this thread

 

[TheCat99]

20 million minimum!

 

[chunksafc]

Thinking about this, any bid for Clarke needs to give us £20 million cash after we have paid spurs the sell on fee percentage imo

 

[Scootsie]

I’d be f***ing gutted if he went to Burnley.
