I thought when we sold Philogene to Hull for £5/6m that was far too cheap, especially as we got around £14m for Ramsey and £18m for Archer? I always thought Philogene was the most valuable out of the three.

Me too. Especially after the great pre season he had.

Yes, you are right Lee.
We sold for £5.8m so will get a sell on fee of approx £2m so we are getting an £18m player for approx £16m.
If we can then punt him on in the future for more than the £18m all to the good

Where are you getting £2m from?

Edit:forget it, I read further on.

If we get Jaden back, I won't be too upset.

That would be a massive downgrade. I would hope that Jaden, if he comes back at all, is coming back as a squad player with potential to improve to first team regular in the coming seasons. If Diaby were to leave I'd be wanting a megastar to arrive to replace him.

A kid who did OK playing in the Championship until March, against a lad who scored and assisted 10 plus in his first season in a Champions League quality side side?

100% - I’m happy for Philogene to come and compete in the squad, but selling Diaby would be mental.
