We will be lucky to get the 3 of them for 50 million, let alone 20. Look at Gibbs White.
i’ve set my price lolcurrent manager does not want to sell archer or ramsay, he rates them highly, gerrard didnt want to sell archer when we bid for him, he wanted to see if he was someone he could use.
never get them 3 for 20m, be lucky if one of them is actually for sale, and if it is then its giles
108 appearances before the transfer to Nottingham Forest and 48 of those in the premier league.We will be lucky to get the 3 of them for 50 million, let alone 20. Look at Gibbs White.
what changed and when to how it works lolFootballer values don’t work the same way they used to as no Premier League side has to sell. The best way to think about it is what he is worth to us. In the Championship he’d certain be worth another loan, but I doubt he’d be worth more than £2 million of a £8m budget. To a premier league team he might be worth triple that, but could you find an alternative of similar quality for £6m or so? Probably if your looking in the right places.

This hes a v poor defender but with a v good deliveryWolves can secure 'big transfer fee' as forgotten gem sparkles on loan
Latest Wolves news from BirminghamLive includes a closer look at Ryan Giles' impressive loan spell at Middlesbroughwww.birminghammail.co.uk
To be fair his delivery into the box has been phenomenal all season, but I think defensively he's also improved.
Sadly this feels like we're victims of our own success in that if we get promoted his valuation will rise beyond what we can afford.
All valid points.I'm still unsure how to feel about Giles. I still feel the positives outweigh the negatives, especially what he contributes in terms of assists.
Defensively though, still big question marks for me. They definitely targeting him last night and he kept getting caught out by the cross-field ball over the top.
It also frustrates me that he rarely tries to beat his man. A few times last night he had the chance to go at his man one on one and went for the easy option instead.
