Phil Thompson (irritating beaky nosed scouser ) on Begovic when asked what was he worth...
''At least £ 15 million.''
''Shawcross has made more successful blocks than other Premiership defender .''
''Stoke are a comfortable top ten side''
These are the important issues I suppose.

£15m for a 'keeper is obscene when you pick up an able replacement for 10% of that.

Anyone that has the profile now that the likes of John Ruddy, Michel Vorm, Tim Howard, Tim Krul and Simon Mignolet had a few years ago.

Real deal I think. £1.75m should do it. If anyone's (Chelsea) crazy enough to offer £15m for Begovic we should ask for £25m, meet them in the middle and sell.

I think he is too, he needs to be playing in the Premier League as well to fulfill his potential. I don't think we'd get him that cheaply though.

£1.8m and a battered Mars bar. Final offer.
Just who the fuck do Celtic think they are, qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League and inflating the price of any half-decent player they may have?!

That's not what he said at all. He said Shawcross was worth 15 million, not Begovic. They didn't even talk about Begovic.

Oh. Poor information.
I'd take £25m for Ryan.

You'd get that sort of argument when we had Banks in goal (although, in those days, goalkeepers were still ridiculously cheap.) The real argument, though, is that if you have a great goalkeeper, how many goals per season would he save that an average 'keeper wouldn't quite get to? In Banks' case, I'd say it would be 10-20, although it's hard to say as his presence alone was worth so much in terms of the other players' confidence levels. In Bego's case, I think it's fair to say that on the open market he'd fetch 10-12 million more than a 'keeper who was good but not great. I also think it's fair to say that the goals he'd save over a season - the ones that your 'fair to middling' 'keeper wouldn't get to - could be worth millions. The argument about whether Bego is worth 15 million has two aspects to it: a) is it worth keeping him when when we could get a reasonable replacement for, say, 4 million? b) should we consider selling him even for an inflated transfer fee when we don't actually need the money? My answers to these questions would be an emphatic: a) YES b) NO and you can feck right off, Sir Alex. M

How much did United pay for De Gea?
Begovic is twice the keeper. At the rate he's going he could be our most valuable & wanted player come January.

HE SAID SHAWCROSS WAS PROBABLY WORTH £15 MILLION - NOT BEGOVIC. BEGOVIC WASN'T EVEN MENTIONED!!
Sorry to shout but some people seem to have difficulty in understanding the point.
