Olsson wants out?

[adsfortheblues]

Ollson been produced through our academy, is a regular for one of the top 16 international sides in Europe, has made a fair number of premiership appearences, is still relatively young and has a decent amount of potential (on the left wing). Therefore all this in my opinion, means, we should be looking for AT LEAST 6 million pounds.

He didn't come through the academy we signed him and put him in the reserves for a season.

Potential buyers don´t care which route did he become. As a championship club we won´t get maximum prices from sold players. Rovers can delay Olsson´s exit but he will leave. Finding replacer is much easier in July than on last hours of the window. Rovers will get £2,5M-£4M.

I'd be dissapointed if we only got £3m for the lad

Twitter reporting he's signed for Stoke.

Twitter reporting he's signed for Stoke.

Can't we just send them his brother?

I can understand where you are coming from and we would be better off keeping him ..

But if we were buying him , £3 mill would be the limit , I suspect ..he is certainly no Graeme Le Saux !

Between 2006-2007 ollson played for the Youth team, therefore, in my opinion, I'd still class that as a product of the academy.

I suppose though, does it really make a difference that the fella is leaving?

Kean won't play him left midfield, his best position, and he is crap at left back, therefore it may prompt us to buy a proper left back or maybe give Henley a crack.

£3m does seem low for a 24 year old international player, who can fill 2 positions , however that's probably because no-one can decide what his best position actually is

I think olsson is a player we should be trying to keep! He WILL get better if he stays in one position! I honestly think a year in the championship will bring on a lot of our players who aren't quite there yet!

Yeah... I'm guessing he doesn't really want to stay all that much.

Martin olsson just tweeted:

Back in the uk #blackburn

Maybe this ties in with the tweet from kamy earlier about an agent at ewood. Looks like hes off

[G Somerset Rover]

Doubt he would have hashtagged us if it was a blatant 'I'm back come and get me' ploy.

Wait and see what happens on this one.

that's possibly the worst written article I've ever read.

Guessing there's a 'not' missing in the second paragraph. and as for the last para we're selling him for 5 and 8m?? eh?

It's clearly just a strange way of saying the price is £8,000,005. A bit like saying "4 and 20 blackbirds baked in a pie" instead of 24.

The author is Jack Failsworth. Suitable surname for the article I think.

Requested a transfer

[1864roverite]

Someone wo again thinks he is better than he is. Sweden ar enot the world champions and he is never going to get a move to a top 5 club in this country, Spain or Germany.

When a club offers the going rate then accept it otherwise knuckle down and get on with it.

[Hughesy]

Out injured for the next 3-4 weeks, can see him struggling for a move in this window as not many will gamble on his fitness, especially not at £5m+

[Damien]

Is this a real injury though? Forgive me but many players have left rovers lately and been injured at the time!

[gumboots]

Well he did have an op

[Damien]

So are we thinking he wouldn't be able to pass a medical at another club? Could be good news if so... He'll have until Christmas at rovers and may decide to stay in the end! Maybe

[davulsukur]

Pretty sure injured players have passed medicals before. injured for 3-4 weeks wont put anyone off buying him.

Indeed. They are more to test recurring injuries and things like that.
