Hard to make any sense of the transfer market these days. What is value?
Sign of things to come this summer no doubt

That's a lot of money for a pretty average player. Because of there new found status I think clubs will try to sting them.

When you think how valuable survival in the premiership is, maybe clubs think along the lines of "this player is 'worth' 20m but the potential insecurity and doubt about finding a decent replacement is enough that we're scared to sell him, even at such an inflated price..."
I know this is an extreme case but I think the financial incentive to stay in the premiership scares clubs from selling their better players.
It's the only reason I can think that any club would turn down 20m for troy deeney

It will be interesting to see if Troy "Mr Watford" Deeney pulls a hissy fit and slaps in a transfer request.

Prices are going to go fucking mental this summer. Wages even more so. Imbula and Shaqiri are going to look like bargains. Really should have given Arnie £100k a week when we had the chance.

When people think Redmond is too expensive ( which he isn't ) at £10m it should open their eyes about what we need to pay and a players worth
Redmond is a bargain at that price

Its a risk i think i would take... |

This summer is going to take the piss. Jim White will be high as a kite on September 1st, when he's reeling off telephone numbers for the totaliser.
As much as I love my club being at the top table, there is so much wrong about what clubs are chucking at players.
It's ruining the game.

If this was Leicester's opening gambit I can understand why Watford turned it down! Leicester have clearly lost any semblance of sanity. How far may these pissed up lotto winners go would be my thinking.

It's not just what he's worth in an open market but what he's worth to Watford.
He's the kind of player who will score the goals that make the difference between staying up and going down - in that context it's not a lot of money at all.
