Siggy NOT worth anything like £50m 17:15 - Jul 12 with 8222 viewsTheResurrection

Here it is for all you amateurs of the beautiful game trying to find their way in the game.

Here it is in writing.... Some of you really need to read this article in full. It's pretty much word for word what I've said all along.......

The article doesn't really take into account the confused style of play from multiple poor managers this season, relegation pressures and deals with the previous season in isolation. He was prolific with assists with Wilfred bony up front.

A player is worth what a club is willing to pay. Opinions matter not a jot.


And that's it in a nutshell. I wouldn't have valued him close to £40m. Leicester have offered that and we have turned it down, which suggests both clubs value him that much at least.

If we can get £50m for him, he is worth £50m.

Some good points in the article, but it ignores simple economics.

Of course he isn't worth £50 million.
Anymore than Ronaldo or Messi is worth £100 million.
They are obscene amounts of money to pay for the services of one player.
However in today's crazy market, he's well worth it and ultimately worth whatever stupid price any other club offers

What he's worth is irrelevant. What other clubs pay for him is relevant.

Apparently he feels a need for vindication. Resurrection otherwise makes a lot of good football posts, though.

Let's be honest he gets it ..,,,why anybody bothers to respond ( to his Gylfi posts) anymore is beyond me.

Ted Knutson ( not he's nuts son ) is an opta stats freak, ok it all correlates and he has delved deep in to the stat thing. But stats don't prove leadership on the pitch, creativity on the ball, finding space and showing initiative. There was a time I would have said snap Leicester Citys hands off, now it's the yanks, so I couldn't care about cash coming in at all. We need to keep what we have and add to it to prevent last season dismal showing.

Gylfi is a great footballer, one of the best I have seen Ina Swans shirt, I don't care about cash, I care about Swansea. And we are better with him than without.

Ah, the old 'set pieces don't count' line. Maybe we should tell the league so they can take away the points his set pieces won us last season? No? Thought not.

He's worth whatever anyone is prepared to pay for him. That's the fact.

No, because nobody will pay £15m for him

I read the article earlier and whilst I'm not saying Gylfi is worth 50M it's obvious that the writer is a blithering idiot who seems to think that goals scored from penalties and free kicks are worth less than goals scored from open play?! It wouldn't be at all surprising if that whole piece was commissioned by someone with an interest at Everton.

At the end of the day he's worth what the market can stand to pay for him and that article is pure buIIshit.

Dear god... The meltdown.

Fascinating stuff.

For the record I mean "worth" and that's neither to Swansea, potentially Everton if they buy him and the sheer loss they'd make on the whole deal when trying to get shot of him.

Back to your melee....

He's one of the best in the world from dead ball situations. The rest of his play is decent but no more than that.

But his ability from those dead balls makes him hot property. Games are won and lost directly as a result of what you do from those dangerous positions

It's a bit like saying that Neil Jenkins wasn't a very good outside half. He won games with his penalty kicks or conversions. Or the American footballer who gets brought onto the pitch to maximise use of the kick.

Siggurdson is a master. There are few around with that ability. That makes him an asset and one that's in demand. Is he worth £50m? In today's market he is. He wins games singlehandedly that's why.

I think maybe you need recallibrating here. It seems the general consensus is that the article you've chosen to vailidate your opinion is full of shit. Better luck next time. :)

I thought some of the points were decent debatable posts.

It's all in the first line of the article Res,overinflated prices is the word he uses which is correct,the Premier League has gone mad, but if clubs are prepared to pay silly prices,and the player wants to leave,everyone's a winner.Thats the end to it really,stats, numbers are meaningless,if a club persues a player,because they can see his worth in their team,that's an end to it,so they have to pay a premium,let's not forget,whatever the stats say Siggy I'm afraid to say has been one of if not our best players in recent seasons........if only for scoring at the right time or making a crucial assist.
