His market value is whatever a club is willing to pay.
Not sure his worth is the same...
I defend Richy as having a rough season for us but until he shows his worth, he hasn't been worth 60m for us.

Read multiple people say he's actually very good with his right foot.
Also that he's great carrying in tight spaces.
One mistake in 11,198 minutes of professional football. You'll hava to do alot better than that.
It won't be €50m. He'll be a nice bit better than you think he is imo.. with lots of room to grow. People are too worried about heading stats and moments where he doesn't engage. Like it or not, potential is priced into players bought by PL clubs.
I agree. As great as this kid Davitashvili looks, I wouldn't go over £15m for him.
He's made many more mistakes, and will continue to do so. As would any other cb we buy. As will every cb who has or ever will play the sport.
So do we: Dane Scarlett.
It's one clip.
But he only ever seems to post one. Funny that.
Probably go to Newcastle next season for £100m and we'll all be kicking the shit out of ourselves,
First time I've seen or posted that video.
Here's another
He's very quick, positionally aware, good on the ball, has leadership qualities (Netherlands U21 captaIn), excellent passing, will bring the ball out from defence really well.
You severely under-rate him.
Exactly.......
We should have done the same with Spence too.
Buying young and letting them stay at their former club to grow further until they're deemed a bit more prepared isn't like dragging some teenager from Argentina and farming them out to Stockport for a year without their familiar surroundings nor THFC infrastructure behind them. Nor is it being shy of "taking a chance on our youth".
The 'no other clubs use the loan system' sentiment is just an extra layer of BS attempting to prop up an already weak argument.

Oh come off it, we’ve talked about this before multiple times haven’t we?
That goal right there is emblematic of his flaws as a defender. It’s not a mistake it’s a trend, a defining characteristic. He stands off and stands off. I’ve written at length about this.
Right here I have 5 glaring, undeniably poor errors directly leading to a goal. Even as bad as Dier was this year, you’d be hard pressed to find 5 mistakes of his that look as bad as this

I bloody know he has a lot of potential but when you’re spunking £40m you aren’t just buying potential. That’s my entire issue with it. Buying him for this fee significantly decreases the chances of buying another first team CB. And if he is to start from day 1, we are in trouble. He is not good enough at the moment.
Well why not put him out on loan and get Veliz in on the bench and actually use him as a substitute? If Scarlett is better than Veliz then why are we buying him?

No need to get snippy about it. Just wait and see what happens.
You just shared a video that says "Market Value: 8m euros"
Not sure that's going to help the debate much lol
We overpaid for Joe Rodon because we wouldn’t pay for KMJ. It’s hindsight, agreed, but in the absence of an immediate first team contender, like Skriniar (who has also maintained a very high level) then Joe Rodon was not the smart punt over KMJ- even on a purely commercial basis.
I feel for Joe - as much as you can for a pampered millionaire man child (like they all are) who earns more in a week than most can hope for in a year. I like him as a person and he isn’t an awful player. I won’t shit on him.
Nobody is playing dumb btw. Someone playing for Swansea has no greater draw than someone who has been touted as the next big thing by a fellow Korean pro who is playing for the team already. If your original comment about Son bending ears is right.
