...for Ozil? ...Silva? ...Hazard?
Probably the closest to our Bojan.
Would you swap him for either any of them?
For me Ozil. No. Absolutely no. They only played £42 million for him so not even near. Silva. Possibly. But probably not. Hazard. At the moment, yes.

I'm not convinced about Ozil's attitude and ability to keep fit, despite really liking him as a player. I'd still probably do it.
Of course you'd swap Bojan for Silva or Hazard, they're two of the best players in the world.
Lets not be daft now.

Out of curiosity how would a swap deal work for a player with a 50% (or whatever it is) sell on clause ? Would a notional value be somehow applied to each player in the deal

I think a tougher question is would you swap Bojan for a 20 goal a season striker who can lead the line?

Come on, let's not be silly. Bojan is absolute quality and the equivalent of a player like Hazard for teams of our level, but we're talking about two of the best players in world football.

Bojan for Hazard yes. The rest can fuck off.

My heart says no, but I think I would... Bojan is doing really well, but those players have proven there worth at big clubs so it'd probably benefit us more.

Fuck no. He's one of us. He was supposed to be great, then he was shit. We got him off the scrapheap. I watch him score a goal..... I don't know, its just different. Deep down, honestly, would you feel the same watching Hazard bury one while wearing our shirt? The same as when our Bojan burys one? Our kid is a scrapper. He was left for dead. He's an underdog. He's a mutt. See, his nose is cold. He's a Stokie, godammit. I want to see where he takes this. Where he takes us. I wouldn't swap him for Messi, and I'm not even kidding. I want us to win as much as the next Stoke fan. But I also like giving a fuck about the guys wearing the Stripes. That's one of the things that separate us from the big clubs. And thank Christ. I wouldn't swap this kid for anyone.

Not a chance!
That said, I'd love to have Hazard at Stoke. That guy is in my top two EPL players, but it's never going to happen. So I can but dream!

Would a notional value be somehow applied to each player in the deal Barca would get half the incoming player, or half of Bojan. The toughie comes in deciding whether to cut the player lengthways or widthways.

Hazard is the best player in the premier league by a mile for me and probably 3rd best in the world.
However we love Bojan and wouldn't sell him or swap him for anybody, just hope we can hang onto him for a couple of seasons.
Exciting thing is he will only get better

From now until the end of the season I'd maybe take any of the three mentioned.
When Bojan is fit Ozil isn't fit to lace his boots. I wouldn't swap Jon Walters for Ozil.
Silva or Hazard would both be welcome at any time.

Silva. Possibly. But probably not. Hazard. At the moment, yes. I do think we have gone a bit overboard on Bojan, he has been on the subs bench for quite a few games this season and has had a handful of decent(very) games recently. To compare him to Silva or Hazard is, for me, slightly over the top at the moment - let's hope he ends up as good as the players mentioned and does it in a Stoke shirt too.

I'm with Mr choco on this.
It's not simply down to ability for me, character matters as well, I wouldn't swap him for anyone.

Ozil went from the best player in the world to the latest victim of the Arsenal talent killing factory in about fifteen minutes. He's too far gone now.
