Play real hard ball and it implies strength, ambition and ability to build. That's what Southampton thought with VVD last summer, and what Watford thought with Silva in October.

ARM1968 Posted 30 January 2018 Share Posted 30 January 2018 I’d sell at £100 million yes, but only because I can only see trouble if we don’t. Just doubt Man City will pay it for a future bench warmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 30 January 2018 Share Posted 30 January 2018 On last seasons form £50 million would've been just about right for him, this season though he's really upped his form again, not been at his best mind but there's been times where he's been unplayable, anything less than £70 million then you can tell them to fvck off. The fans that are brandishing the £100 million figure about are deluded in my opinion, on his day he's one of the best but he doesn't show it often enough, he isn't worth that much.

Yeh and Southampton hung on and got £75 million for a player no better than Maguire..... Silva is a manager not player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted 30 January 2018 Share Posted 30 January 2018 55 million is a piss take. Saying that though he will struggle to get a game at Man City. I don't think he is good enough for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had to put in a request, so Clubs can make a move... For me, its a question of how much...!!! He is doing nothing wrong, there is no good or bad time, or even what is fair time. Fans hacking him off , childish..!! He has a right to up his career.He stayed longer than expected, clubs tried to get him on the cheap. In todays market, we should be looking for offers over 80mil+, silly market but thats life!! If we give in...on price that will be our fault. Some fans can build up for contempt for their own frustrating reasons, for me if he stays or goes, hes earnt my grace and thanks. Hes got to do more, than hand in a transfer request,not at/for some fans liking, before I start disliking him....So stay or go in peace my son....You gave us some great moments, you go down as one of the legends....love to have you a bit longer.. Brilliant post. To be too bitter to recognise what Riyad has done for us says more about those posters, than it does about Riyad. Leicester legend, and always will be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 30 January 2018 Share Posted 30 January 2018 Really thought we'd get through this window without this kind of nonsense. Still think Man City's interest is totally left field. If he is meant to be cover for Sané, do they not realise Mahrez plays on the right, not the left? And then once Jesus and Sané return in a couple of weeks will they even need him? Even in their absence I'm not sure they do, given their huge squad. And all just when it felt like we could have a great end to the season.

Prices inflate due to the current market prices. £50m would have been his value if the silly fees weren't paid elsewhere. Look no further than the housing market as an example. A house once worth 180k a year ago is now worth around 200k. Club hold all the cards I feel. Forget the £50m that was quoted previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC there were some recent stats showing he was ahead of Courtinho for assists and goals over the last 2 seasons or something similar... You'd pay more for the better car down the garage, right?

If Mahrez wants to go then fair enough but he will be a bench warmer once sane is fit, but the price tag u would put on him is 90 million, and nothing less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richardsfoxes Posted 30 January 2018 Share Posted 30 January 2018 I don't really care about the money, all numbers on a piece of paper that make no difference to us as fans.

Everything was going so well, 7th, massive match v Everton coming, F.A. Cup run looking good then there from above comes a shower of shite on our parade. I appreciate their injury to Sane may have jerked them into response but ffs bid on January 1st not a day before the window closes and with everyone focused on a big match. As for value we've seen Courtinhos fee, we've seen a CB who can't play CB (David Luiz) move for 50 million in the past, I'd want nothing less than 82.5 million, a set of tracksuits and a written acknowledgement that Shawodawady & Kasabian outclass Oasis, The Smiths and The Stone Roses. Oh and Delph. You forgot the swivel chair... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
