I'd say 70 mil for Wilf and 40 mil for AWB (maybe 50 - we need to keep him for one more year - losing both would be too big a hole imho). We lose 20% of Wilf's value to Man U - I'd like us to clear 60 mil which means 75 mil wud be the min, but 70 wud do for me). Have I undervalued our little gems?

Over recent years transfer fees have gone up and up. However, it really would not be entirely surprising if prices levelled out at some stage. I'm not even sure either are going to go. Hard to know exactly what strategy we have, if any, and if the investors going is having an effect?
I wouldn't want either to go for any less than what you have said and, hopefully, more. I reckon 55 mil is around right for AWB - with add ons. Walker was highly publicised at 56 mil. AWB is already as good as him but with much more potential.
Zaha certainly 60+ mil with add ons. Figure being quoted is we have asked for 80 mil. So 70mil perhaps?

I think the 80M for Wilf is about in the ballpark and expect him to go. He wants a bigger stage.

AWB I think may end up staying. I expect clubs to try to lowball us since he's still developing and they will want him on the cheap.

With the money from Wilf, unless AWB is unhappy and wants out, we don't need to move him so I expect him back next year.

 


Success will lie to you but failure always tells you the truth.

Wilf's value to us is worth a lot more than his valuation to other clubs. We'd want £80m but realistically he's about 50-60 when you compare similar players.

AWB is probably the reverse, we value him less than Wilf, but other clubs probably see him as more valuable to them.

For a club like us, having a great right back is less important than someone who can carry the ball up field and create and score.

For one of the top teams, AWB could be the difference between Europa league and Champions league.

There are already threads on both Zaha and Wan-Bissaka, where future comments should be posted.
