Berbatov is worth 18mil. This season has been worse than last season for berbatov he is not the player he was perhaps thats the reason for the low price tag but I think its right. Im a diehard barca fan and would pick Adebayor over Berbatov anyday. Jenas would do better than Berbatov.

Its none of us paying for the players so good luck figuring the price that will be paid. I think the shaun wright phillips price tag absolves sense from the issue. Berbatov in my opinion is worth more than Adebayor quite simply because he does more and plays at more than one position in front.

berba is only worth 15m if u get more than that 4 him them some1 is being fucked. u say he the best but he cant score 20 prem goals. even crouch is better than him he just needs more play time. henry and vanesterooi were the best in da prem 4 yrs and none ws sold 4 more than 16m. so berbs is a 15mil player and he only jst makes it

If Spurs can get a couple more quality players- I read they are trying to buy Capel from Sevilla, then it would be good to see them push on and take our rivalry to the next level.

I expect Arsenal right at the top next season. Let’s see Spurs knock Liverpool out of 4th spot. That would be interesting :p

I do sometimes laugh when i hear all these 30-40-50 millions pound transfer rumours, like robinho is worth 30M, berbatov is worth 30M, Ade is worth 25M, etc etc, all load of bollocks, youve all been playin champ man or whatever too much.

Ade has had one season of quality with the gunners and is worth around 15M but due to his contract lengh and relative happiness the price to actually buy the player would probably be more like 20-23M.

Apply the same logic for Berbatov as he is excellent player but aside from you yids hes not a 30 or even 20M player, i would put him on a similar price range to ade just down to his age, he is better i would accept that but as he is 3-4 years older you can expect less of a significant improvment (unless Fergie and the skum buy him like yorke and sheringham). I could see spurs selling for 18-20M. If you get 30 ill be suprised but not unhappy.

‘Huge’ players at the moment are Benzema, Ronaldo, Kaka, Torres and few others to be honest. Huge in the sense that it will be massive money to entice a move from either club or player.

Skill is only one small part of transfer cost, contract length, happiness, age, nationality, league experience fuking loads of crap. Learning about how football transfers work is really interesting and really opens your eyes to how shifty the big bussiness end of football is.

Yeah I don’t think Spurs should accept less than Â£25 mil. But I just think people shouldn’t expect more. Hope for more, but don’t expect it.

And ye Eddie is better than Ade, yet Ade’s worth way more. The valuations are so inaccurate at times. If we got offered Â£25 mil for Ade I would accept it if I’m honest. I don’t know who I’d sign with the money, if anyone up front, but I certainly feel although Ade is often good and sometimes brilliant, he’s really rough around the edges. He might iron that out, in which case great, but Â£25 mil is an awful lot to turn down for a player who might not ever be up to a similarly top standard as someone like Henry.

“have to be realistic about the valuation” I think 20mil + is realistic, given berbs has 2 years left on his contract and SPURS have the choice whether to extend it by a further 2 years (nothing to do with berbs himself) so its actually a 4 year contract, which in todays football is actually quite a long one!. I hope he goes, ill be honest, this whole thing is doing my head in (now i know how arse fans felt during the Henry saga)
