Squad value

15.75m according to atricle in LEP.
Must have only included one or two players......

Exactly, if we accepted that for Pearson & Robinson we would be stupid.

Did riddler not say at the last forum that the squad was worth 70 million

Around that figure, seems much more realistic than 15.75m. How can Bolton’s squad be worth more than ours?
 
Very misleading article
but is it going off what clubs paid for players ?
could be wrong ofcourse
probably am

It says it’s market value, not cost.

How much for Maguire? A small % of that figure you've suggested Imo.

I was looking at around 15/16 each for the other three so maybe in the 3-5 bracket
 
In order to quantify this data, take a look at these two players and their values (on TransferMarkt today) :

Jordan Hugill 8.00m
Greg Cunningham 4.00m

Before those players were transferred from NE, their market values weren't as high as that.

They acquired those values at the point when the market was tested.

I recall Grayson joking with another manager that Hugill was worth 4m (Jan 2017?). If that date is correct, only a year later the player had appreciated by 6m or more.

This typifies the disproportionate market of [value of] football players. It's the water that Ridsdale swims in.

Based on the above I'm surprised the LEP even bothered to run the article.
 
Maybe we should bank the money for Barker and Nmecha before people find out that they add nothing to our squad value, I doubt that is the price Citeh have put on them anyway?

I think quite a few local rags, probably Johnsons Press papers, have run this “story” as said why did they bother?

Well two points

A player worth's in money terms, is what a player would ACTUALLY bring in if sold

OR

The value a Club puts on his worth (Insurance wise) if he was to be injured and could not return to play

Two Very different measures I would say

Must be 50 million there.

Couldn’t see Maguire going for more than £2m at most, he has barely played.

Not sure why the LEP would use TransferMarkt as a source.

Imagine selling Ben Davies for 450k!!

It'd be a fair price if you believe some of the criticism he gets on here!

Personally think he's absolutely quality, shame many others don't see it the same way.
