Gylfi to leave ?!!!

[Royalwaster]

The EP valuing Gylfi in the region of £2m. If he goes for that they'll be a lot of pissed of supporters that's for sure!

£2 million would be an absolute disgrace ....

For a player with only one full season at CCC level behind him, it really wouldn't be.

I disagree. He's 20, he's scored almost 20 goals from midfield. He has bags of potential. In the past the likes of Forest and Southampton have sold their youngsters of similar and lesser quality for £5m+. We're not little Reading any more, and we should hold out for the highest possible price.

Shane Long...going to be the most likely to leave

He has - 7 are pens though which skew the figures slightly but still a veyr impressive return.

That was when the market was a bit different and I'd be very surprised to see any club prepared to spend much more than £2m and that will probably be about his current market value.

Reckon they would reject £2 but if it was £3m+ then they will find it hard to say no

The irony is that if Gylfi had come through the ranks of a French, Spanish or Italian team I suspect one of the big four would be willing to pay £10M plus for him - for potential alone - but we are Reading so no one will pay is anything like that.

If he keeps fit I believe he will go on to be a top 4 player and will command a fee in excess of £10M at some point - so if we sell him for £2M it would be incredibly short sighted.

You are joking, right?

Spacey.....look at Doyle, reckon someone would pay £10m for him now, who would have said that 4/5 years ago

Like who? Doyle works hard, but has struggled again to score goals this term. I think £5m is very much the limit for him right now.

Villa

How have you come to the conclusion Villa would spend that on him?

Its no secret that Villa want Doyle - as do Everton & Birmingham. Why you think Wolves would let him leave for a loss of £1.5m is a mystery, considering he's been one of their best players this season - plus he's only 26 years old, an Irish international and still has about 10 years left in him........Anything less than £10m for Doyle and Wolves wont accept - they have no need to.

[SCIAG]

Villa

The same Villa who have tested their very generous owner's patience to the limit and aren't going to have nearly as much to spend this summer?

Doyle has easily been Wolves' best player this season, only Hahnemann comes close apparently (and Mitijas' left foot). He's never worth £10m, but Wolves could probably make a slight profit on their spending on him.

[Sun Tzu]

I heard Arsenal are keen on Doyle.....

Suspect the £10 million may be not a bad guess.

Agree that if Gylfi was a Barcelona youngster then there woul dbe big money flaoting around. But he's not, and that may be a clue as to why he's not worth 10 million !!

[TBM]

But the question wasn't what is Doyle worth.....i was simply saying that Doyle could quite easily go for £10m and who would have thought that 4/5 years ago

Oh and O'Neill has asked for £50m to spend this summer - if they want to be a top 4 side then thats unfortunately what they have to spend

I didn't know for certain what he was sold for, so in that case, £6.5m is about his top value. He hasn't hit the net regularly this season, again, but is a worker, and is an asset. Just because you say Villa have shown interest previously doesn't mean they'd be prepared to spend £10m on someone who isn't a regular goalscorer at that level.

I cannot see how anyone can value him at £10m when he doesn't have the scoring record to back it up.

But Jay it doesn't matter what you "think" he is worth........the fact is Wolves don't want to sell him, he's been their best player this season and has age on his side. So to tempt them to sell he could quite easily go for £10m. Look at Smalling of Fulham, he played 1 game in the Premiership, scored an own goal and then Man Utd sign him for £10m - going by your method he should only have been worth about £100k but Utd saw something in him that made them offer £10m
