Villa have competition for Rogers

[johnsmithsno2]

West Ham keen to hijack move, according to Sunday People.

A bidding war would be nice.

 

[BoroBourneNBred]

Price has gone up then if that’s the case.

The bidding starts at £15million

 

[Priv]

Should help us

 

[starplayer]

If West Ham are involved we need to add a £6.5m premium for Fanny Fletcher.

 

[Diego]

Be interesting if they too make a bid

 

[TeaCider]

Can only be a good thing, whatever happens with Rogers.

 

[Starbuck]

If he goes it needs to be before Tuesday so we can get some of it spent this window

 

[BoroBourneNBred]

I have a feeling he’ll be a Villa player on Monday

 

[Nero]

Is it only teams playing in claret and blue interested?

 

[Boro_Interlinked]

I don't think we will accept any bids now , well anything less than 12m
He won't lose any value between now and summer continuing to play for us
If his assist rate and vision/flicks persist at the same rate until the end of the season then you can add on a couple of mil to value
Hes a young lad that still has not completed a full season anywhere in senior football
He's not going to kick up a huge fuss about staying even if he really likes the idea of Villa. MC will say, 'Plenty of time lad, plenty'

Surely Burnley are desperate enough to offer £20m?

 

[Boro_Interlinked]

Two places reporting already the hijack attempt has failed and WH have moved on

 

[Merlin]

I don’t believe Boro would sell without having a forward lined up first

I hope we have. If not then we do need to keep him. In fact, his rate of improvement makes me feel we should keep him for next season anyway.

I think he’ll be here till the summer at least

At the start of the window most would think it would be two clubs drinking claret offering big money for him

 

[r00fie1]

Striker incoming

 

[Nero]

£12.5 million if true is a good deal. It’s a shame to lose him after only 6 months, but he is a quality player and will do well at Villa.

Be interesting if Boro has anyone lined up. Surely a striker as others have said.

No it really isn’t
