West London Sport revealed on Sunday that QPR had rejected £7m bid from West Brom for Matty Phillips.
Coming soon after Rangers also rejected £12m bid from Leicester for striker Charlie Austin, many Rangers fans on Twitter were pleased their club were digging their heels in and asking for £10m for Phillips, who impressed during the second half of last season.
West Brom fans were split on the issue – some felt Phillips would be a great addition, but others baulked at even the £7m offer their club had made.
Fans of other Premier League clubs weighed in, with supporters of Newcastle and Everton – monitoring the Austin situation – questioning Rangers’ demands.

Why arent rangers trying to keep CharlieAustin? Surely we could offer him a new deal with a clause if we dont get promoted this season? He is an honest, hardworking man he might go for it?
Worth a try anyway??
Regarding the valuations of both Charlie and Matty, they are perfectly legitimate.
If peiple took the time to look at the stats they would see the value. In fact, if Redknapp had played Matty in the first half of the season we may still be in the Prem and his price would be much higher than the 10m quoted now.
Bit much for a championship winger
We don't need to sell so if we can keep Charlie ,Mat and co and they get us back up then it was money well saved, Charlie walks away for nowt but it's a price worth paying , well done Tony , show the spirit that most of the team failed to last season.
Notice how it's always arrogant Newcastle supporters who weigh in with tw@ttish comments when they actually have no clue whatsoever? It takes 5 minutes to check out the stats of a player via premierleague.com but they're too stupid even to do that. What did MP do apart from score a wondergoal? lol...you couldn't make it up.
Austin - I'd have taken £12m personally, but considering he finished the season 4th highest goal scorer, and looking at the ridiculous price tags attached to players like Sterling, how is £15m remotely overpriced?? It's just sad, bitter, unintelligent utterly illogical rubbish. Which is what I've now come to expect from Newcastle fans ever since we signed Remy in fact.
Read his stats people . Matt Phillips was one of the highest assists in the prem not bad for someone who only played half a season . 10 million is cheap for someone who can cross a ball and has blistering pace . Do your homework . 10million or sod off. We don't have to sell
