I was comparing Deeney to Vardy because it looks likely he will be leaving, why bring Okasaki into it? I apologise for the fact I don't agree Deeney is a multi million pound all star footballer who should be playing in the Champions league. My. Fucking. Bad. To the best of my knowledge vardy hasn't gone yet and I'm pretty sure someone as astute as ranieri would realise that deeney and vardy are totally different players. I bought Okazaki into it because were deeney to sign for Leicester it would probably be his position in the team that would come under the immediate threat. You know Vardy hasn't left Leicester but you don't know when or who England are playing at the Euro's? I would love to know what limited sports news service you are using

Just like I never said it wasn't a while ago then, so what was your point? That £15m then isn't £15m now Shearer would be £80m today so the comparisons can not be compared £15 million is equivalent to £25.39 million today link

Let's not be silly - Deeney was an effective Prem player last season.
But £20M ????
And will he be a one season wonder anyway?

From reading the Watford site Deeney was directly involved in 20 of their Premier League goals last season, 13 of which he scored himself.
It's silly money but for them he's likely the difference between staying up or going down (likewise Ighalo). Even if they got £20 million and reinvested there's no guarantee they'd be able to replace what he gives them.
I'd say fair play to their chairman if he realises the importance of keeping hold of a player like that.

If Watford hadn't have had Deeney they'd have gone down. For 20m I wouldn't sell because what they could lose if they go down

Get used to these sorts of numbers, folks - any (previously unfamiliar) bugger who scores 3 goals at the Euros will suddenly become a 20m target...

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. TOTALLY agree with you... I said months ago the club should not hesitate to pay Arnie £100k a week or frankly whatever he wants.

He wants Champions League football which we can't offer. There's nothing we can do about it.

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 Nah. Half the price for Deeney and I still wouldn't want him. Wouldn't go anywhere near Redmond. Couldn't hold down a place in a side that had problems scoring and were relegated. What we buy must surely be better than what we have.

To be honest yes. PO was with us for about two and a half years played 31 times including sub appearances scored 5 goals and picked up several million pounds. Hardly the stuff of legends.

Obviously his injury played a massive part in that. I was aware of his injury and upon reflection I was perhaps a little harsh on the guy who when he did put on a Stoke shirt gave his heart and soul.

If Troy Deeney is worth £20 million then one of my crusty arse hairs is worth at least £25.
