Player Valuation: £35m
I still think its poor on Brands behalf - we've also likely payed Baines, anything we will be receiving on this deal on a 1 year contract extension.
Poor squad management in my opinion.
Not sure - he is getting this move because he's been playing regularly at Wigan. He wouldn't have played regularly here and wouldn't have developed the same way.
The only logical argument I see is that we should have loaned him out again rather than having sold him, but even then he only had a year left on his contract in the summer and by all accounts he didn't want to sign a new one, so what can you do?
