You've made a heck of a lot of assumptions there. :lol: :lol: I've not said anything about Declan John, apart from the fact I don't think he's valued at 10million pounds.

Maybe you should take your own advice and "read posts properly". :D :thumbup:


Remember the time Gareth Bale was getting linked with a move to Notts Forest from Spurs? Bale was older than John was then. The OP's question was what price would you demand for each of our players. I've put 10 million on John, because he's an 18 year old with loads of potential. If John was 28 and hit is peak performing the way he is now, I would demand around 2 million for him. Please read posts properly.

Campbell - 8 million
Jones - 2 million
Berget - 500k

I haven't included Bellamy, Smith or Lappin as I would quite happily allow them to go for free to free up wages if I had to sell them. I've put John and Daehli at 10 million as I think they will both be top Premiership players in 5 years.



:laughing5:
15 mill for mutch and 10 for John whatever your smoking mate I want some


Yet another poster who can't read the OP properly. :lol:

I read posts correctly. I still think you're talking nonsense. :D

As I said, you made a heck of a lot of things up on stuff I said about Declan John, so I suggest it's you who needs to read posts properly. :thumbup:

How is me saying John is 18, been thrown into a struggling Premiership team and hasn't disgraced himself, showing he has the potential to become a very good full back making things up? :?

You said that I didn't think any of those things, which is wholly incorrect... As I said have said nothing on him at all, apart from the fact I think that 10million now or ever is ridiculous. :thumbup:

I said exactly those things in all of my posts about John. He's 18, been thrown into a struggling Premiership team, held his own and has the potential at his young age to grow into a very good left back. I've said this about 5 times now and you still can't seem to be able to read it. :lol:

Luke Shaw is a full back at 18 who's held his own in the prem. Him and John are Worlds apart. :thumbup:

10 million :laughing5:

You said you don't believe John could be worth 10 million in the future. I think he can as for the reasons I've explained in this thread, which you can't seem to be able to grasp. Luke Shaw was thrown into the Southampton team last season as a 17 year old. He has learnt from last seasons experience and has improved further this season. Shaw has had a full seasons worth of Premiership experience over John. Gareth Bale, a player who was a bit part player of the Spurs team 4 years ago as a 20 year old, almost went to Notts Forest. It was only when Bale broke into the Spurs team regularly, he started to improve, the same with Shaw, and I'm hoping the same with John.

Like I said, I would probably value John at around 2 million at the moment, but I would put a 10 million price on his head because he could potentially be worth that imo. If I said to you Bale would be worth 85 million as a 20 year old nearly joining Championship Notts Forest, you would be laughing too, just like you are with John. I'm not going to explain this over and over again, so this is the last response you'll get from me in this thread. I have better things to do than respond to you all day.

Yep, but I didn't say any of the other things, so I just suggested that you take your own advice & read my posts correctly. :D

How the f**k are people comparing John with Bale FFS! :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5: :laughing5:

8m for Campbell?? we'd be so lucky to get that much for him!

Re: If you had to sell the team ?

Fri Mar 28, 2014 5:46 pm

The only players who will go for 10m or more are Mutch and Caulker and that is only because I can see a bidding war being put in place for the those players.

Teams will take a punt on John if they are desperate and in now way will he go above 5m in my opinion. But hey, we might stay up this season and keep hold of everyone?
