3rd league game in a row Taylor is an unused sub for West Brom. Surely more chance of him coming back than Morley who's starting every game for Bolton, although don't think we need him now after Bradley and Anders have signed.
Isn’t Taylor right footed though? That’ll be him and Low as right sided CB and Anders / Bradley covering the left CB position if it all comes off, which really sets up strength in depth for a promotion push
Clubs like Luton have that kind of money to spend, if they want to. Great to see the club rejecting these bids, but I am now worried that someone will stump up the cash in the next week...
I think the club should reject any bid below a crazy value. He's worth it.
I’d imagine we will be looking at around about £10 million for Kone given his age and level of interest. A few clubs in the Championship can afford that which I don’t think include Luton.
I genuinely wouldn't sell for anything less than this kind of fee imo. As @kipper says, he's bound to be on the radar of almost every club in the Championship. If they really want him, they should have to pay over the odds. His goals could be worth more to us than that if we go up though, so I'm hoping the ownership group stand firm and reject everything till Summer.
Tbf though wasn't that ground getting built before promotion? Therefore the PL and parachute money was just a welcome boost, not essential to the ground, and therefore still sat in a bank account somewhere?
He scored goals in the champ for them though and from a prem club, I reckon if over 5 mil plus add ons and sell on percentage that represents good value and allows us to go get proven, the signings we have made have no proven L1 pedigree Dion Charles...
What does £5 million do for us at this point of the season that the league's top scorer (ignoring a player no longer in the league) doesn't? Considering the finances that we have behind us now, I think rejecting bids of that size for Kone is a risk we should take.

Can’t see us signing another centre back unless Low goes.
Trying to buy our best players a week after leaving? That's not very Mr Wycombe.
He will be on most champ clubs list, would of been in theirs pre bloomfield you would imagine
Kone would be about third-choice striker at Luton behind Adebayo and Morris. Woodrow is there too. Would be an odd one.
Yeah, no. £5m or more. Not being inflammatory or exaggerative. He’s that good.
Get 4 mill plus woodrow

Woodrow wouldn't be a popular signing here haha
Personally I'm over the time he 'shat' on our corner flag, but others are not...
Haha will be forgotten once he scores
I would take £4M plus Adebayo.
He brought Kone to Wycombe. Rich owes him more than he does Dan Rice!
We won't sell, though.

Aren't they flush with the money they got for flogging those parachutes?
I went to watch last night at oxford with some Oxford mates and my god he was useless, Danny hylton?
New ground to pay for
Oh, maybe not then 🤦

Why would he want to go to a club that’s likely to be relegated? He could do far better than Luton.
A reminder that Birmingham paid £15 million for a player of similar age and arguably ability in the summer.

Yes but new grounds always cost more. They won’t have the budget to blow over the odds on Kone.
His value today could be very different to his value in June. We don’t need to sell and we shouldn’t either.
100%. There's absolutely no benefit to us as a club if we sell in January, for any fee.
He scored goals in the champ for them though and from a prem club, I reckon if over 5 mil plus add ons and sell on percentage that represents good value and allows us to go get proven, the signings we have made have no proven L1 pedigree Dion Charles...
Bloomfield doesn't care about Wycombe anymore. Why would he?
Some fans should adopt the same perspective and move on rather than attacking ownership with no substance.
FWIW, I don't think we should entertain bids of less than £5m - double that for Luton.

But I don’t think there were many suitors for Stansfield. There is loads of interest in Kone.
