8..?


(not an emoticon / smilie thing)

£8m price tag on N'Gog is mental. Be lucky to get half that.

[Mostar]

Nothing new here. We are doing what most clubs do.

I know dude, but we're ripping the piss here.

£8m for a bit part player and one that's totally lost his confidence.

[Chrono]

Ask for £8 you might get 5/6. Ask for 5/6 you might get 3. He's still a decent young striker in one of the best leagues in the world. The tat that gets £20m price tags put on them is ridiculous, about time we didn't just offload our players for peanuts.

[Mostar]

4-5m would be fair evaluation as he is still only 22 and he has been playing at PL level for 3 years now.

That said, if rumours are true about us going after Dann, I wouldn't be surprised if we offer them cash + Ngog (McLeish wanted to sign him up before) and that is why our initial price tag seems to be overinflated.

That's not a bad shout actually.

Brum could do with another striker, and the Championship for a season at least might just be what N'Gog needs at this stage of his career.
Toughen him up a bit and he'll get goals in that league no doubt about it.

Makes sense all round.

[Daniel 7]

Bye David. You've been rubbish on the whole.

True. If Real Madrid/Barca were offloading a youngster with those stats we'd be creaming ourselves

[RedReet]

I think he’s a decent enough player and can see some mediocre team buying him for about £5/6m and selling him on at a profit in a year or two for £12-15m.

Hope he does well wherever he goes...

Its posturing

There is clearly interest in the player (there was in January)

So you set the bar high and see what you can get

My guess is that we'll see him as a makeweight in a deal (maybe)

Good to see you post again RedReet..

Yup, we're never going to say "Oh you can have him for £3m, but we'll take £2m."

If he had a lot of natural confidence I think he'd be a much better player.

Can't believe he's still only 22, seems to have been here for a while!

Good luck to the lad, he has a decent goals-to-minutes ratio and for £1.5m he's done an excellent job.

Sadly for him he probably had too much pressure put on him too soon, what with having to deputise for Torres. Should've been our third or fourth choice striker - certainly not second choice.

My thoughts and now everyone knows the valuation of him in a player plus cash deal

If the geordies are interested he could be used to try and negotiate with them for Enrique?
