    It's not at all. He'll be worth whatever someone wants to pay for him.

    I'm sure there are ways around it, usually is in the corrupt world of football.

    Given he has 1 year on his contract, if the opening bid is £5 million (doubt it myself), then he will be gone. Simple as.

    Exactly. To think otherwise is just naive.

    erm.. one of the TOP CH in the champion ship last season. Have a look at the stats on clearances etc. And you wont many fitter and quicker. I'd be asking double at least with add ons in this day and barmy prices.

    Sheff Weds suggesting that Tom Lees is worth £15m. We'd never get that for Robbo despite the fact he's superior in every department. It really is all down to how much teams are willing to pay and our new CEO's negotiating skills.

    Maybe we should offer an extension to his contract and take it from there.

    And like you said - who he plays for.
    If he played for Leeds or the Blunts he wouldn't be going anywhere for less than £10 MILLION.

    I think we should sell him at £5m.

    He's slow.

    I'm not saying he's not a superb defender. What I am saying is that he's a type of a defender who isn't worth as much as the continental type. I wouldn't settle for £5 million if there's chance of more. He's not a complete defender in any imagination so he's not the best defender in this league for me.

    On the other side, money has got ridiculous in football so looking at other players who are similar etc, we probably should be asking for more.

    For the last 2 seasons he's been one of the quickest at the club.

    I think you'll find, in historical records on this site, that he's been designated as slow.

    No he is not. In actual fact he is probably one of the quickest players at the club, cast your mind back to pre-season in the friendly against Everton, Kevin Mirallas (who is rapid) had about 15 yards on Roberts down the wing and Robbo got back and won the ball.

    Once again it all depends on what we do with the money, whenever we make a big sale. £5mill is an excellent deal for any of our players, but to be honest I dont believe we will get anything like that.
