Zan Vipotnik

If we had to sell Vipi or Galbraith (a choice we may yet have to make), who would you sell?
As a couple of other people have said I think Galbraith is more likely to hold his value for the next 12 months, so I’d edge towards selling Vipotnik if we had to cash in on one of them.

Replacing him (in particular his goals this season) could be more difficult though. Would need Idah to step up and we’d have to find some wide players to chip in.
 
I'd rather we kept VP and sold Eom, Ronald , Inoussa and Idah. Combined they would prob be the same and we'd save more in wages.

Teams probably won't come calling as easily for them as teams would Vipotnik.
There will be some bigger teams with larger sums of money that will turn Vipotnik and his agents head.

We just need to get the best deal and bring in a replacement and creative players to replace his goals. He is going to be a tough guy to replace given a lot of goals he scored were from individual plays by himself....more than a goal created by team play or similar.

Galbraith needs to be put back into midfield if we want to maximise his potential and a bigger fee.
We will get more financially if he plays midfield and in my opinion more as a player aswell.
 
You can't keep on scoring this rate of worldies. My senses tell me this is a one off season that we need to cash in on. My may be proved horribly wrong of course but only time will tell.
Not so sure about that, he scores worldies because he can whack Hell out of the ball with both feet and that’s natural for him. He also scored a few worldies last season which would suggest that this season isn’t a purple patch.

Looking at a recent compilation of his goals, he has scored a good range of them this season and not just wonder goals. Think if we kept him he would have a similar season next year.

A natural finisher will always score goals. I feel a lot of his are natural type of goals that come instinctively to him.

Personally feel selling him in the summer would be a mistake.

I think we will end up selling him because his value will peak for us in the summer. We won’t be able to sell for as much a year down the line with his contract running out sadly.

That’s how it probably should go with the type of model we’re running with but that doesn’t mean I’m not gutted to lose him.

He perhaps isn’t quite PL level yet but feel he will score goals wherever else he ends up.
 
we’ll find it difficult to replace someone who has scored as many goals as Vipotnik this season he’s been sensational

However I do feel we need someone who can provide a more all round game than Vipotnik. He’s proved he’s a great goalscorer - but I don’t think he provides us much when he’s not scoring belters. Games recently such as Preston & Derby show he’s not offering much else.

Look at Oli Mcburnie who has provided 7 assists for Hull this season alongside his 12 goals. Someone who can bring our wingers into play a bit more.

Question is why do we want or need to sell him? People talk about this "model", not sure the new owners share that belief.

Top scorer in the division whilst playing for a team which has struggled to create chances for most of the season. What more does the lad need to do?
