Realistically we’re talking Collins, Thomas and possibly Evans and Taylor. Nobody else we’d get significant money for. Weirdly out of those 3, id be happiest to sell Collins (for the right money) Taylor will just get better and better and his price continue to rise Evans is too important. Maybe Thomas, but cant see he would get anywhere near that value. Collins, we may be at the point to get the most for him we ever will. Needs to be £1m plus. Hope no-one embarrasses their club and town with a bid lower than that  Funnily enough, Thomas is the only one I can see being worth that. Arguably playing out of position, can be a tad frustrating granted, but definitely looks better than L1 level on a good number of occasions, still young etc - has the "X Factor" IMO. |

If we lose Collins , keep Marquis and don’t sign another striker we’re looking at a relegation scrap.
Need to get Marquis out of the club one way or another he’s useless.
And then bring in two more strikers that are better than Marquis.

I'd rather lose Collins over Marquis. Marquis works hard and actually scores goals, and causes a nuisance of himself.
Collins just gets blown off the ball, falls over, dives... If someone offers 500k for him, let him go IMO.

Agreed, and we'd then need to be blooding the likes of Greenslade for the last few minutes of matches before the end of season. Agree, Harvey Greenslade is back full time with the first team and Rovers have not let him go back to Truro City who are apparently on daily to get him. A few other clubs in the running for him as well but doing well in training and with a bit of uncertainty of others I think Rovers will wait and see at the end of the window. Would love to see him get his chance and i know he's desperate for an opportunity. I think HG is overdue a bit of a run in the matchday squad, I'd like to see him more involved in the second half of the season. |

Struggling to see how he's going to get any gametime at 1st team level, he's scored 4 goals at conference south level at av 324 mins per goal. Marquis, who gets plenty of stick and isn't deemed good enough by most has 4 goals 293 mins per goal in L1 this season. I hope Greenslade can improve and get to pushing first team level, but is going to need more experience lower down the pyramid and start hitting some form at that level before being promoted 3 tiers to our first team. Would love to see academy players getting minutes, but it has to be 'earned'. |

Evans, Taylor and when in form Luke Thomas contenders for our most valuable assets?

The lad who scored for Exeter the other night against us, Sonny Cox, had been on loan in the conference south this season at Yeovil and scored 2 goals in 9 games for them. |

Heard 1 or 2 to be sold before deadline to pay for Grimsby lad. No names mentioned but for 1 million +. Can only assume it’s Collins as no one else worth that? Gutted if he goes before deadline next week. Crap this season but worth keeping as still a handful Saturday to be his last game probably. If this rumour is true and there's plenty of rumours at present. It coincides with a forum user saying a month ago " we need to recoup the Barton & co payout ". Simple maths would tell us if we had £800k avaliable in January ; were is it gone ?. I reckon we made around 300-400k in Fa cup run which should pay for the Grimsby player. Long term we could be having a mass clear out with only 9 players contracted beyond this summer. If we're selling from within this small batch the club will be making enormous savings. We will know either way In the next few days |

Our main goal contributor who's 26 and under a long-term contract vs a 31 year-old duracell bunny who's out of contract in 6 months We're lucky to have players like Collins, he's just badly out of form atm |

Agree it has to be earned, but speaking with the media guy down at Truro the other Day, Harvey ( Greenslade ) has also been playing mostly on the wing for Truro as they have 2 Decent Strikers. Harvey as well as his 4 Goals has 7 assists from the Wing. When watching some of the clips on Truro site and on Twitter, the Goals and assists are decent quality and not easy when the ball is bobbling around your knee caps when running or controlling the Ball. He is Quick too and would be good to see especially when the first team aren't pulling up trees and wont be going up or down this season. |

Also looking back he has been in 3 - 4 matchday squads over Barton who extended his contract as thought he was nearly ready a year ago.. and saw this clip that was done by a fan on You tube. Looks pretty decent scoring with both feet and head and very attacking minded when playing out wide as well. Link |

Would love to see academy players getting minutes, but it has to be 'earned'. Yeah I take that point but it's more than just goal stats sometimes. As another poster said, 4 goals but also 7 assists playing on the wing - not as a central striker. Bit of a livewire, hard-working presser. No harm in having him taking Sinclair's slot on the bench, for example. And on the topic of player sales, I could see Sinclair going/us ripping up his deal. Must be on a big wage and unfortunately doesn't contribute anything nowadays. |

I know it's apples and oranges but Rashford wasn't ripping up trees before his surprise inclusion in Man Utd first team.
"Rashford was included in the 18-man squad for United's UEFA Europa League tie against Midtjylland, owing to an injury crisis which saw 13 players injured, after Anthony Martial was injured in the warm-up Rashford was chosen to start the game"
Scored twice and the rest is history.
Point being, until someone is given a chance you simply never know how they will perform.
I would hope as soon as we are mathematically safe Greenslade and Ward are given some playing time (unless Cox wage % is really is that bad that we can't afford to drop him).

Would be hugely disappointed if true. Signing Conteh would be a show of ambition and would be pleased we are looking to go this route. But selling one or two of Collins, Evans, Taylor or Thomas would be massively disappointing. Taylor will go on to be a great player and one day will fetch us a sizeable transfer fee. Collins whilst out of form, still is our most creative player. Evans at the moment is our most important player and is showing the form we know he is capable of. Thomas, one of my favourite players and on his day is very good for this level. All four of these players are needed if we are to show any ambition of challenging at the top end of the table. We should be signing players to play alongside these players not to replace them. What do people realistically think these players are currently worth? For me Collins, £750k, Evans, £400-500k, Taylor, £400-500k, Thomas, £300-400k

If we lose any of those three, it'll be a case of one step forward two steps back. Well, unless we offload one of them for £X and replace them with someone of £X (but we all know that won't be the case realistically). |
