2022/23 Jordan Pickford

Much rather keep both at those fees.

We have nothing and can't be in the same position as the last 2 seasons.

If Pickford has a release clause or a promise we'd let him go in a top 4 club came in, we can't argue.

And Branthwaite at £20mill based on 1 good season in the Dutch league after a £1mill investment is very good business for a player who'd play 10 games at most for us next season
 
Indeed. We aren't exactly swimming in great goalkeepers battling for a place. The cautionary tale is that Leicester sold Schmeichel and their defense went off a cliff. When you consider the calibre of some of their attacking players, it was the defense that sent them down and the understudy GK clearly wasn't up to the job.
But they got no money for Schmeichel and ended up playing ward who was garbage. Because they didn’t have a lot of money. Be like us playing Lonergan next season.

If we got 60mil then it’s a different story

Pickford was arguably our most consistent player the past two seasons and Branthwaite will be like a new signing, if good enough. We already have a squad who should comfortablely obtain 40 points and now a manager able to achieve it.

Unfortunately that's all we can hope for next season.
 
Pickford is the last player we should sell if we want to actually improve the team this window come on

Name me a keeper for £30m or less who wants to play for us who makes us better?

The only way we should entertain selling Pickford is if they offered double that and we thought we could get someone almost as good but also have the money to buy a striker which we desperately need.

Why are you questioning my statement? For £30m we would be worse off if we sold Pickford 100%

You then say in your next post that £50m would be good business, which I don’t disagree with if we spend it well which would be a slightly worse goalkeeper but reinforce other areas we desperately need

I’d still rather keep him and sell almost any other player before him
