With HR's recent talk of Bale's greatness and how only the likes of Barca, RM or Man City being able to afford him, I wondered how much he's worth and how much the rest of our squad is worth. How much I guess I'd accept for the player if I was Danny Levy / how much I'd take to be able to buy a replacement of equal or better calibre. What are your values?

Mine:

Friedel - £2m
Gomes - £4m
Cudicini - free

BAE - £8m
King - £6m
Gallas - £1m
Walker - £15m
Rose - £3m
Dawson - £8m
Kaboul - £15m
Bassong - £3m
Corluka - £5m

Bale - £50m
Parker - £5m
Modric - £40m
Lennon - £20m
Sandro - £15m
Huddlestone - £8m
Jenas - £3m
Krancjar - £4m
Livermore - £2m
Townsend - £5m
Bentley - £5m

Defoe - £8m
Adebayor - £15m
Van der Vaart - £12m
Pavlyuchenko - £8m
Dos Santos - £6m

I can't be bothered to put my reasons else it'll be too long. Feel free to cut & paste values in. Would be interesting to see how different everyone's is. I haven't pondered too much and have just put the first number I thought sounded appropriate.

You missed out Bentley... I hate to think how low his value has depreciated to

70m is fairly crazy to be honest. I could see Bale being worth maybe half that, but with the FFP set to come in these massive transfers are going to become more and more rare.

Can't see Lennon going for much more than £12m either. He's worth more than that to us but I just don't think he has that sort of value on the open market. Walker is worth less than £10m as it stands but again, will be worth far more to us as a club if we keep him.

I would expect more for Sandro - but wouldn't want us to accept a bid for him.

You've overvalued Bale (40-50m), Walker(10-12m) and Lennon (12-16m) and undervalued Kaboul (12-15m) but the others are pretty good estimates I'd say

Hmm I guess 70m is way OTT at the moment. But would we take 40-50m given we knocked some 30 back for Luka, Bale's only 22 and can potentially turn into an attacking midfielder / inside forward?

Will update above

4 million difference between Pav and VDV Eek

Would also say Ekotto would be well over 10 million in today's market, closer to 15 IMO.

id assume that it would go on length of contract and reported wages to come up with some of the values
