DTS
The Business
I'm not suggesting we let him walk, I'm saying that if we rush through a deal now, we'll pay more than if we bide our time. We've got 8 months to sort a deal out, there's no need to force through a deal the week after he's hit a hat-trick and his value is at its highest.
It was only a matter of weeks ago that the consensus on here seemed to be that Barnard was rubbish as he was always injured. A few goals later, people seem to want to make him the highest paid player at the club.
Or we hold off and try and save a few £ and someone else comes in snaps him up and we loose our one top striker before the new season.
