They can wait until summer and then they can give us what they paid for Andy Carroll. |  | | |

Luiz went for £50m, Lord knows what Charlie is worth. |  | | |

I would have thought that settling his contract is just about the most important thing our club should be doing at the moment!! If this goes on much longer we won't be able to afford to keep him! |  |

We must not sell him in January. No way. No how. He is under contract and there is no hurry. Survival is our number one goal for the season and there is no chance we would be able to find a replacement in January, no matter what we got for him.
If we cannot convince him to signs new contract by next summer (and he keeps up the same sort of goal scoring pace) then we could be thinking about 50 million for him. That would be on par with what other proven goalscorers are worth. remember, if we sell him then we will need to be bringing in a replacement or two, and we are unlikely to find one for that much less. |  |

I recon that hat trick has lost us Charlie Boy.  That and the inevitable call from Woy.
Lets just enjoy him while we can | |

i believe we paid burnley £4 million, and given how the current transfer market is, he is undoubtedly worth considerably more. which would be good if we needed to sell him.
but we don't, and if tf has learned anything during his rangers tenure, he would realise that he is irreplaceable. at any price. especially in a january market where teams are still playing for silverware and big bucks.
anything less than £10 million would be a steal, but the real problem would be replacing him which would be more or less impossible.
better to wait till the end of the season, see where we are and go from there. in fact, i cannot see him being sold in the january window under any circumstances. |  |

How much is staying in the Premier League worth to us? Including the FPP fine we'll get hit with if we go down?
Charlie is worth at least that much to us, because without him we'd be down already. |  | | |

And to think we got £12m for Chris Samba. Austinho has got to be worth so much more to the club than that. |  |

Good grief I can't believe you find a negative perspective this close after the final whistle. Charlie is a ranger. And he's going to stay one. |  | | |

We need to sign him up on a new contract and do what Swansea did with Bony; put a 20 million buy out clause in the contract. | | | |
| Charlie at what Price? on 19:56 - Dec 20 with 3392 views | bosh67 |
I think we have to make sure he is not for sale at any price. Try and get him tied down to a big long contract because he is worth our place in this division and we know what happened when we sold Les Ferdinand. |  |

Reason we've got half a chance of keeping him is he's slow.
Which teams are going to buy him?
Nobody from abroad - Italy Spain Germany, not technically strong enough.
Would have to be domestic.
Never going to appeal to Man U, man city, arsenal, Liverpool (under rogers), chelsea
So who would want him? Everton? Could they afford him, would they think he's better than lukaku? Newcastle? Would they shell out? Do southampton need another striker? West ham if Carroll gets a bad injury.
There just isn't an obvious step up club which would suit his strengths. Unlike remy where chelsea or arsenal was a no brainer. |  |

I hope other people think like you. I really hope that.
Not technically strong. I have no idea what that means. His goal at Southampton? Not technically strong? His header today? What does it mean.
True that he doesn't have lightning speed or a rocket shot. But he is as technical a player that we have ever had up front. He is always in the right place, He links up really well with other players. He creates chances for himself and for others. He works his socks off. He is great with the ball at his feet, great footwork, great skill. I might even say, great technical skill.
Anyhow, like I said, I hope others think like you.
We must not sell him. I would put a trigger in his contract at 50 million. If someone comes in at that level, then the lad deserves a chance, but anything less than 50 million and he is a Superhoop! | |

He is decent technically, sometimes he is awesome and sometimes he is average.
Overall decent.
He is great goal getter, Torres is technically better, but couldn't score for toffee. Point is at the elite level when clubs are thinking champions league they are going to be hesitant about going for Austin as a lead striker. | |

At any price. He may not be the perfect size, or be the best ball handler, etc. However what he does have is what all great strikers have, the uncanny ability to score goals. When he gets the ball anywhere hear the box its going on goal. It doesn't matter if he needs to use his head, foot, knee, or butt. Its going on goal. He also makes great runs, he is always moving and getting open. 11 goals before the half says it all. There is nothing else to debate. | | | |

Any higher than Spurs or Newcastle and he's on the bench at best.
He wants to play and score, he'll be with us and keep us in the prem.
He'll play for England and host MOTD when he retires from football.
He is.... Gary Lineker's clone!!! |  | | |
