Rowett wants him to start the rebuild.

£10m quoted in the tabloids, which is comical really.

We can’t afford to lose him if we’re serious about promotion next year.

shit. We desperately need a resounding 'not for sale' from the club.

We will hold out for more than 10mill, probably get 12, re invest 10 percent and continue our big push for promotion, which will peak the NEXT season.
But do not say it lacks ambition because we are very lucky to still be in business.
 
Someone itk has said that the figure we want is £15 million.

Which is very reasonable, despite the fact that he doesn’t score goals (irrelevant anyway).

There comes a point where this is a good point

🙁 I'm not sure I could cope if that became true ........
 
If we're serious about a promotion push next season then we need to keep Pearson at all costs. If we do get into the habit of selling a first team player every transfer window, even if it is for millions, then discontent on the terraces won't be far away, regardless of league position.

Agree. Pearson is an entirely different case to Hugill.

Pearson will not be sold. Hugil I can see why the club sold him. He didn't want to be here and wanted to leave. We had 8 million better then the 4 we would have got in the summer. Pearson has a contract until 2021. He isn't going anywhere.

I sincerely hope you are correct.
 
I can predict the happy crowds responses already. We have the replacement here Ledson, everything with the big push is still on course and in its usual position 2years away !!
 
There would be no positives to selling Ben at this point. He is the heartbeat of the team. £30m wouldn't be enough to cover what we would lose if he left.

Can't see the Riddler and Trev letting him go to a promotion rival tbh and I just can't see him wanting to leave just yet.

If a decent Premier League side came in for him I think he would leave. I don't see him wanting to leave us for Stoke this Summer, even with the wage increase they would offer.

If a prem team came in for him and the offer was above 15 million then yes I think he would leave - but if we can just persuade him to stay one more season then he could achieve his prem dream here. This is different to the Hugill situation. Hugil wouldn't sign a new contract so we had to sell. Pearson we don't have that fear as he still has 3 years left.

Exactly.

Pearson has three years left on his contract.

Is pivotal to how we play.

We chased Ledson to cover/support for him not to replace him.

Is our best player.

Ten million isn’t enough.

We don’t sell our best players to other championship clubs.

It’s from Alan Nixon.
