£18m rising to £24m.  Not sure what the triggers were for the extra or how that plays in if we sell him.

I presume nothing has been triggered so far,only maybe his desire to leave.

His record for us is more or less one every other game, so I can't see how that would lead to his value dropping.

Exactly.  If we were to sell him for less than we got him it would suggest the folks who are running our club have finally lost the plot.  Liverpool paid £35 million for Carroll, let the bidding start from there.  Mind you, the club have said Bent is not for sale so I hope they stick to their word on this one.

If you look back at why Stephen Ireland pulled out of the Irish squad you will find that he fell out with Robbie Keane amonst others.

Wasn't it because he lied about a death in the family and then admitted that he lied about it? Im sure thats what it was?  No wonder he fell out with players over it.

I thought it was due to a couple of players holding him down,and trying to remove his syrup.

It was to do with his 'extensions' Robbie keane being the joker in the pack. This bullshit that we need Keane for the dressing room. All that will happen is Dunne and Collins showing Keane the delights of Mechu on Summer Row.

That never went ahead.  Eck opted against it.  I think he must of got pissed off that he announced it on his FB page.

If that is accepted we should be in for him at that price.

You never know, they might be as their owner was on Talksport this morning speaking to Alan Brazil and Ronnie and he said they were in the market for defenders.  Theres always Sunderland who might go for Collins
