I'd let him go if we can get a younger more mobile replacement in.

He'll be surplus to requirements when Koren and Dacourt get here.....
 
I'd be quite disappointed to see him go for only a quarter of a million pounds. Granted Oakley is getting on a bit, but he's still a useful player and as someone has previously pointed out his style may suit Sousa's tactics and he is also club captain. As we'd be selling him to a league rival I'd prefer to see us to get a better fee for him as I'm not positive that we could get a better central midfielder for that amount. Hey-ho, though, it's not as if its Hobbs or King leaving, it isn't an end of the world scenario.

I think the £250k quoted is for the other player mentioned in the story. I'd be amazed if we get anywhere near that for Oakley.
 
It says GB has spoken to Leicester, we don't know whether Leicester said yes you can have him, or **** off he's staying put.

How much game time MO got on Saturday, I'd be surprised if he was surplus to requirements.

The £250k bid is in relation to a different player, not Oakley. But I'm sure you read the article properly, so you will already know that.

In fact the article doesn't really say very much, does it? Only that Oakley is the kind of player that Palace are looking for.

Stand down, everybody.
 
I hope replacements are 100% certain to come in. PS seems keen to clear out players before the start of the season. We don't want to be short of numbers for the first few games. That's when a lot of injuries occur.
 
I've got my doubts that Oakley would pass a medical at another club due to his dodgy knees.

Easily replaceable in my opinion. Not really fussed either way.
 
If we can get someone like Pratley or Koren to come, sell him but if we can't keep him.

So keep him then :081:

With his knees, we'd be very stupid to risk him against Scumderland if we were looking to sell
 
If our starting line up against Palace includes Oakley, then we are fecked

If Wellens or King get injured and Oakley isn't available, however, then we are equally fecked

So he can't go until we have a decent replacement and, given that we wouldn't get more than a few pence and a bag of pork scratchings for him, then the chances of us signing a decent replacement right now is about nil.

So he must stay until the 'mysterious' Asians come in and give us three squillion pounds to invest in the squad

Everythings fine Homer, we've got nearly all the players left we started last season with. We are just as strong as we were a year ago therfore we will win the league. It's all fine. We won't miss all the players who have left/not resigned and haven't been replaced.

You are such a tart it's untrue....
