Re: Rumour Mill
Quality player. According to football manager 24 though (!) he requires a work permit or one of our slots (forget the name). Or perhaps he now qualifies?
Re: Rumour Mill
Sadly James from the BFP has stated he is staying.
Based on his recent record he’s already in Bedfordshire. 😉
Re: Rumour Mill
Selling Kone wouldn't mean signing Morley. The money is there for Morley, but Data Dan doesn't want him
Re: Rumour Mill
If Kone was to go (god forbid) then I'd be going all in on Alasanna Jatta from Notts County. 20 goals in 34 games for Notts County, and played with Magnus Westergaard at Viborg.
To be clear though, I think losing Kone would be more disruptive to our season than any of the other losses so far (Morley, Taylor, Bloomfield)
Re: Rumour Mill
Understand your point but Kone is 100% replaceable. Far from the finished article (aware of how high his ceiling 'could' be). We're talking about 6m. Say it out loud. 6m!
Re: Rumour Mill
Totally disagree, I’m afraid.
Richard Kone is already streets ahead of Dan Udoh. His hold up play, positional sense, strength on the ball and distribution are all superior, never mind the eye for goal.
The prospect of Luton being able to acquire him, see him scoring goals for fun and ultimately making a nice profit when he moves on doesn’t bear thinking about.
Re: Rumour Mill
There's not a massive gulf between Kone and Udoh when Udoh plays as an out and out striker
Re: Rumour Mill
I suppose the worry is it's late in the window. Once we accept that bid (if we do) then every seller knows we are £6 million up, and any fee for their own striker would go through the roof.
It's a very tough decision to make, but I stand by my thoughts that without Kone we absolutely won't get promoted.
