I meant move on, play for Netherlands become famous etc. He's not going to do that with us right now. I bet if he plays in the PL he gets a call up. He's already a legend for us.

He could stay and keep us moving forwards and become a legend. Or he could move to a top preniership side and be on the bench, where players don't often earn legend status. Do you mean financial maximise his football earning potential?
As long as you can convince an insurance company to cover a 15 million investment? He won't go anywhere until fit.I don't think his injury would hinder any potential transfer move to be honest
Did I just see a Gustavo sign your contract sign at the darts?
Not sure how much Cognac they sell at the Winter Gardens.....Think it said 'Guts, I've got your cognac' Don't know which darts player it was referring to, though?
I’m here. Standing at the backNot sure how much Cognac they sell at the Winter Gardens.....
How’s the cognac?I’m here. Standing at the back
A medical doesn't take into account a superficial injury , hence why he's in demand while unfitAs long as you can convince an insurance company to cover a 15 million investment? He won't go anywhere until fit.
No, they're known as more of an Armagnac crowd.Not sure how much Cognac they sell at the Winter Gardens.....
Yes it was meDid I just see a Gustavo sign your contract sign at the darts?
what i think our proposal is.
Tell Gus to sign a new 3 year contract.
Tell him he is free to leave next summer (if we go up he'll likely want to stay)
If he is sold. It's then ideal for Doug/Robins as his sale will fund next year's transfer budget much as Vic has this year.
MR loves breaking into a chuckle
Got to be happy with that… apart from waving goodbye to £15million
I reckon if we do sell him we will get closer to that than not. Doug won't just give our assets away the world has moved on from Sisu.It’s pretty clear no one is remotely interested in paying that sort of price
That quote sounded as though MR is acting to seek a compromise agreement between Doug [who is sticking to a strict wage structure] and Gus & agent [give us the money we think he's worth]. Meanwhile, no club has bid £15m, while hoping to get him on the cheap.Asked by CoventryLive if there is any update on the Brazilian-born player’s situation, whether anything has developed since he was last asked on Tuesday night, Robins said: “Nothing at all and I honestly don’t expect anything to happen. And I will be glad if it doesn’t.”
Asked if it’s a case of the longer that situation goes on, the more likely it is that he will sign a new contract with the Sky Blues, he continued: “Who knows, who knows... But the thing with Gus is that I will keep talking to him and working towards a solution for everybody; the best for everybody and hopefully that will be him staying.”
Breaking into a chuckle, he added: “We love him, the fans love him and he should commit the rest of his career to us.”
As for his fitness, Robins said: “He got half a game and he’s not really trained so you can see that he’s not in shape yet because he’s been out since the play-off final.”
Given the turnover of players we’ve had, we’re going to be undervalued by the bookies.Yeah if we’re looking at offers of £6-7m at most, perhaps the club are taking a view that it’s worth keeping hold of him, and seeing where we end up this season.
If we do keep him and we sign a couple more quality permanents and then get 3-4 exciting loans in, we could be right up there.
Would fancy us and Boro ahead of any other existing championship side from last season. Then you’re hoping that a couple of the relegated clubs underperform. Although checking the bookies odds it looks like there’s some major bias at play for me- stand by it though!

With the high turnover of players, it could take quite a few games before this new squad performs to the level they are capable of.Given the turnover of players we’ve had, we’re going to be undervalued by the bookies.

not really related to Hamer but Robins seems to be much more relaxed this pre-season.Breaking into a chuckle, he added: “We love him, the fans love him and he should commit the rest of his career to us.”
That's the way of the world if it happens it happens I doubt it will of course!Well he’ll be giving them away next summer
I don’t blame him! Last summer our recruitment was light years from where we are this season.not really related to Hamer but Robins seems to be much more relaxed this pre-season.
Yep. At least we'll win some games and have a good season this year, if all goes to plan.
Fucking hell! Who do they think they are? Imagine going on strike to move to Burnley
