I am quite surprised we still have him tbh. He's a bit one paced but easily good enough to be a Championship player. We can't afford to let him go on a free. With one year left we would do well to get £600k ish for him. At least we have players other clubs want. That wasn't the case three years ago!!@

If he's going to go punt him to other teams and let him go for the same amount Wilder is willing to pay.... as someone else has already said for someone who had the best team in league 2 the other year he sure seems eager to take our players instead of his ex teams Don't want to get you all worried but Wilder is looking to sign another 4 players: Goalkeeper Centre Back Left Winger Defensive Midfielder Do you think, Eastwood, Nelson, Johnson and Ledson are on his radar?

If he does he might as well buy the 'O' for SUFC and be done with it.

just because a club have made a offer for a player does this mean he wants to go? we want to sell? he wont sign a new contract with us? we wont ask for more money. There is an awful lot of guessing going on, the club may sit him down ask him what he wants to do sign a new deal if not then we will have to sell him its pretty simple.....

I don't think we could ever pay him what a bigger championship club could and I think he knows that. He will either go or let his contract run down. I assume we get a fee next summer as he will be under 24.

I assume that JL will be offered a new contract and effectively told that unless he signs it then we'll be selling him this summer. Letting an asset of his value walk away next year isn't an option, and leaving it until the January window is too risky for the club. Should he decide against extending, then I'd like to think that he'd cooperate with the club and his transfer could be mutually beneficial to both him and us. He must have attracted interest from a few clubs, so options for the player and a potential bidding war rather than moving at the first offer seems a sensible approach.

Think we might lose Lunny, Marv and Curtis. Seem to have signed lots of backs. Obviously 4 or 5 need to come in.

Old bosses pinching us hard? Surely we have contingencies :-) tbh every year the players we see coming in are an improvement. Obviously going for a bit of experience to hold things together this year. The whole model is built around a high turnover of players and if we are progressive and go up this year how many will be here for the following season? I would also be surprised if any manager was appointed who didnt say he could hit the ground running with this squad +-4 or 5. Consolidation? Lets hope not but the first 10 games will determine that

If Lundstram goes he'll be 1st choice for captaincy surely? Experience as a captain, the leader at the back. The signings of many defenders is quite simple in my opinion. I think we have many defenders signing because we lost a lot of defenders Dunkley,Skarz and Edwards from the defence left so we always needed to replace them and have and an extra defender to give cover and options. Eales and PEP in my opinion won't let more then one player go. Don't think we need 4 more honestly, 3 at most. We can't afford to change squad to much after Portugal.

thats a tough one. we cant really set ourselves up as a club where young talent gets gametime and can showcase itself and then we agree to let them move on - cant really ask them to sign 5 yr contracts. 4 though or 3 + option of 1? Its always season 2 sharks come looking and makes no sense not to sell layers with 1 year left. I would transfer list them anyway. currently. 500k is 5k a week in wages for 2 players for a year. If we had 2 more years though we could get a higher fee

Imagine when Lunny signed if the deal was they gave us him for 2 years and paid us 500k at the end of it. Good business. If the 500k was put back into playing budget for this year, would we have a top 6 and if we got Maguire back on a better wage (out of the 500k pot) would it be a good trade?

Everyone's money was on Marv, but today's news about Lunny has changed that. Pep rates Marv, and the cynical side of me says he he cut a deal with DE when agreeing to takethe job: to keep Marv for next season, but allowing one other top asset to be sold. Lunny is certainly the least consistent and least talented of the "assets".

He will never be good enough to play Premiership - great player for us but maybe the catalyst we have been waiting for before we do our deals

If I were MApp I would say sign Marv and Curtis now, loan them back to Oxford and they will be worth £3m each next year. Maybe all part of the MApp deal? He injects £2m transfer fees in and we keep them for a year and DE uses it for a big push for promotion with some massive late signings/Leicester forwards? If we do go up it will increase his value in the club massively. We could be about to have a game changing year. We have momentum and so are worth a punt and incoming fees like that are the financial arm he maybe needs.

If Lunny signed a new, long term, deal now, he will be a hero for the club and mark a turning point in transfer policy.

From Nelson Ledson and Johnson. Lunny is the player that we could replace easiest. We already have have Rothwell and Ruffles who id have no problems with stepping in alongside Ledson. If we could get anything around the 800k-1m mark and taking into account the service we've already got out of him I'd say that's a fair deal for all concerned when you take into account his contract situation.
Still all rumour at this stage anyhow and I know for a fact he's very happy at Oxford and proud to be skipper. Soon see though I guess.

Given his contract situation, if a half million bid has come in for him then I would expect it to be accepted. If he's not signing a new contract then I'd say that is actually good business for a league 1 club. He's a good player (after first 2 months of the season) but I'm not sure he would be first choice in many championship teams right now.

SHEFFIELD UNITED NOW JUST 1/3 TO MAKE CAPTURE OF OXFORD LYNCHPIN 0 0 0 Blades closing in on U's talent 17 July 2017 Club captain at just 23-years-old, it’s fair to say John Lundstram is a beloved figure at Oxford United. But fans of the U’s must now adjust to life without the midfielder, who looks all-but-certain to join Sheffield United this summer.
Seen this on tinternet. I've tried to copy and paste it but I'm a simple man, not sure if it's worked or not

Leicester loan them back for a season to Oxford. The price of the 2 players rises to £3 million EACH in just 1 season,an increase in value of £4 MILLION pounds. Hmm.
