Dack is exactly what the Dingles are missing. They have all the flair of a dead fly.

I wouldn't be grudge him a move anywhere but there

The picture in question is doctored.

The person who those 3 are credited with an enquiry / interest is Che Adams

Utter nonsense. He's strong as an Ox and with decent pace. Sigurdsson went for £40m at one point in his career. He has similar 'physical abilities' to Dack.

'Rovers have opened contract talks with Bradley Dack and are hopeful of reaching a positive conclusion'.

I can see a team like West Ham making a last day bid for him,could do with those contract talks getting done in the next 24/48 hrs to ward people off making a bid.

Dack is just the sort of player that a lot of teams in the relegation battle are missing. Not good enough to help them stay up, but someone that will stay with them and be able to help them bounce back. 

Dack simply doesn't have the physical abilities necessary to be able to thrive at a higher level. He's found his perfect spot right now, maybe he's aware of that. 

I don't know, I think Dack could actually make it as a Premier League number 10. He's exceptionally gifted. I could see a bottom half team giving him a whirl.

If we don't go up this season I think he's a gonner to be honest. Someone will bite.

It’d be to a team we pass on the way up.

He’ll stay. One more season. At least.

Great point on Sigurdsson, very similar players.

Not that we should entertain anything like that but if interest did materialise from Southampton it would be Dack in exchange for £10 million, Reed and Gallagher.

Interesting, even Austin and Reed. Are Southampton getting rid of any other talent?

Agreed. I think people trot out the 'he's not physical enough' line because at first glance Dack isn't the tallest or most intimidating looking bloke, but he's got a very stocky frame and knows exactly how to use it to shield the ball and hold off opponents. You don't have consistently good seasons in League 1 if you have no physical presence.

He really does use his arse well.

Physically he's fine but for me he lacks a yard of pace to be a true Premier League player.

It’s quite a batty as anyone who follows his missus on Instagram can attest.

Think they often tumble in his Rovers gear as well. Reyt good.

He'd have to compensate for that with very quick thinking and excellent positioning. I think he has it in his locker, but it's a question of whether he has the mentality to consistently do it week-in week-out. 

[Bigdoggsteel]

I don't think it was mentioned enough but his pass for Armstrongs opener last weekend was really sublime. If a player at a top 4 club did it, the pundits would have been drooling. 

[JacknOry]

He has it:

Ignore their valuation though.

Two observations

Rovers have scored some cracking goals in the 18 months Dack has been with us, and

Dack's distribution is fabulous- I don't think that gets enough notice.

He's not a flier but he's got a great change of pace. He can go from walking with the ball to a sprint really quickly. Bryan Douglas had that asset also.

Scouts may be reading this site......Dack is useless, has no pace, is weak and likes a beer. Stay well clear!!

Rovers also missed a lot of sitters too. Lots of 1 on 1's straight at the keeper.

Whilst Id love him to stay, if I put myself in his shoes...I'm 25 and have ambitions to make it in the premier league having never currently played there. Im off at the first offer from a prem team as the opportunity may never come again. One bad season or injury would see his stock fall.

The ideal is if we get promoted with him.
