Is Macca that good? He stayed in L1 after leaving Chelsea, now in L2. The only thing that could be said was he stayed in London not an ambitious move for him at the time as proven with relegation. Thought at one stage he was off to Millwall. Are there many teams looking at him at the moment? From what is said here he should be in the Championship.
So will there be a "bidding" war for him during the summer?

I think the local aspect of his move to Wimbledon was key, along with staying at a level he knew he was playing very well at in League One, and there was also a lot of excitement and expectation with their new stadium opening etc. I think he had another very good season personally, but in a team that did not kick on from the previous year, and in fact got worse. I would love to see him back at Rovers and would say he’s worth a fee with his age and talent, plus probably not on a huge wage, but I wouldn’t want us breaking the bank for him. Anything £250k or below I’d say was a steal, but above that we could probably utilise the free agent market more effectively, albeit with less scope to build from and/or sell in the future.

Always hard to say with these things isn’t it! I reckon it’s semi-accurate but as an example in 2020-21 they have Luke Thomas earning £5.5k while on loan at Ipswich, and in 2021-22 they say he’s on £4k while on loan with us, unless of course they are only stating the percentage we cover?! I’d be surprised if Hearts couldn’t match £1.6k a week to have brought Sammy Nicholson home from the States, as it was reportedly due to “a huge difference in wages offered” that they couldn’t compete with us to sign him. Reckon it’s just a large part of estimating and guesswork that is about 50/50 in accuracy, though still handy to see!!

With the domain name owner based in Seattle and the IP address in Berlin it would be interesting to know who this website gets its figures from. Certainly doesn't feel like an organisation that is ITK.

If it is correct which I have my doubts, looking at those figures the players wages of the ones released amount to approx £650k, so it should allow with the added financial benefits of being in league 1 ( EFL payments & increased match day revenue) JB a decent budget to improve the squad.

That site suggests Evans was paid quite well yet JB said he was a steal.

Belly for 1,1k -week. That surely will go up, significantly ?

I'd like to see McCormick back at Rovers.
Did well for us in 2020/21 and was one of Wimbledon's best performers last season.
A good all-round midfielder who is still young and likely to improve further over the next few years.
It sounds like he has 2 years left on his contract so I think it will depend largely on whether Luke is keen on the move. Even then, it might take an offer of 200k+ to persuade Wimbledon to let him go.
