Vipotnik - Top Scorer (Championship)

[Darran]

Whats boiling my piss is that some on here seem to want him to be sold wether he want a move or not. The " if somebody came in with 10 mill then great take it " brigade.

If somebody comes in with 10 plus million it’s a no brainer for the football club.
Where we’ll get another (at least) 20 goal a season striker from mind is anybody’s guess.

Spurs are obviously a bigger club than Brentford but it’s quite funny that he left a club that finished 7 places above Spurs last season and they’re currently 8 places above them.

Indeed.

They've got to point their negativity somewhere, it's quite funny

We could sell and buy Agyemang from Derby as a replacement. How much do you think he'd cost?

They paid 8mililion for him only 6months ago so atleast double that.

So £16m for him, yet many are valuing the guy who's scored twice as many goals as him at just £10m?

Because he's a better player?

The valuation is largely irrelevant, it’ll come down to what offers come in. Personally, I’d be surprised if any clubs offered more than £15m and if that means we keep him for another season I’d be delighted.

I’d also be surprised if we turned down an 8 figure fee for any of our players though. If we do sell, hopefully it’s a bidding war and we get as much as possible.

Granted he's a good player, but not sure what you're basing that statement off?

Not really. If we value him at £18m, yet only receive offers of £10m, then clubs are going to miss out on their man. He's going to be massively in demand, teams will be desperate to land him - we need to make sure we're properly compensated

Scalability at a higher level. More mobile, better movement in the box and doesn't take a long time to set his shots up. His hold up and link up play is worse but he brings you alot more inside of the box and the ability to play in behind.

Appreciate the explanation! I think Zan's power and range of shooting (he can score from anywhere and either foot/head), his vastly improved hold up play, makes him the better player. Adding in the fact that he's 18 months younger, that gives him the edge on a transfer value

I just don't see Vip getting that sort of time to get those powerful shots of at a higher level in a consistent fasion especially when it's one of your main selling points as a player.

Agreed though his hold and link up play is top he's really improved on that over the last year.

I hope you’re right and happy to be proved wrong in the summer in terms of the interest and offers we’ll get.

Obviously I’d be even happier if we keep him.
