Clearly the club rate him a lot higher than the players we have sold otherwise they would not be selling them and buying him.i meant his stats and the league he plays in value him at 20m in my eyes, i dont think he has achieved much as it been in Belgium and France, not that we would get him for that as the world has gone mental (see Lucas thread for some more crazy amounts being banded about)
Agree that the fee that we are getting for our youth players would indicate more value for him but I don't rate him any higher than them
Occasionally the club makes an error in buying players and sometimes in selling them but al the evidence we have points to the fact that what they are prepared to pay for players is a pretty good estimate as to what is appropriate value for us.
