Our most valuable line up apparently.
Was in the game against Reading.
On squad values we should be battling relegation.

i would say the combined squad value is nearer 20 million
I’d like to think minimum, assuming Vik continues current form until end of season

Whilst those values are questionable - as i'd have the value higher - if it's the same for all and our squad value is around the 5th lowest, it again paints a fantastic picture of the job MR and his team are doing.

Brennan Johnson £900k when Forest rejected £15m in January

Or Josh Bowler who is valued at £800k when Blackpool turned down bids of £2m for him in January. No doubt his stock has risen significantly since then as well.
The fact they suggest Birmingham's squad value is in the top 10 is comical.

I would argue
Gus £5m
COH £4m
Gyok £8m
Sheaf £3m
Hyam £2m
Godden £2m
Others combined £4m
Total £28m
Gus £5m
COH £4m
Gyok £8m
Sheaf £3m
Hyam £2m
Godden £2m
Others combined £4m
Total £28m

Nobody is paying £2m for Hyam or Godden

I'm pretty intrigued to learn how he arrived at £4m as a valuation for the rest of the squad as well.

Nor Sheaf at £3million

I’ll have a go:
Gus £7.5m
COH £7.5m
Gyok £8m
Sheaf £1m
Dabo £2m
Others combined £4m
£30m?

Hyam, Kane, Rose, Allen £750k each?
Moore £500k?
Youngsters, Shipley, Bidwell etc £500k combined?
Maybe.

£1m Tavares???

Rose/Tavares/Dabo/Moore/Allen/ Eccles all have values - say 500k each and a £1m for the rest

Ignore the laughing from the usual merkins on here.
I think your point that the squad has a greater value than £14m is valid.
Some may have differing opinions on the individual values, eg, Godden 2m is beyond what I think (30+ year olds don’t command high fees normally) but as I said, there are some on here that just like put others down.

You've based your opinion on player values on absolutely nothing though, as has the other poster.
For instance Kane. Didn't we just take on his contract rather than pay QPR a fee? Yet now he's suddenly worth £750k?

There is a difference between squad value from an accounting perspective and resale value. Suggesting Tavares, Allen and Rose have the values stated to actually be sold deserves being laughed at

Not at the moment I wouldn’t think.

All values are based on nothing besides sentiment and conjecture.
With regards to Kane, Length of contract is key.
Kane was also out of favour having spoken out. Manager wasn’t going to play him much and his contract was running down, ending 2022 July.
Different story now.
Hamer and O’Hare’s values have gone up, I’d suggest, having had their contracts extended.
The Philosopher

I didn’t put a value against Tavares.
Jamie Allen £750k? Not delusional IMO.
Rose? Name a better CD we could get for less that £750k?
Go….

We didn't pay anything looking at the accounts for Rose, Hyam, Mc Fazdean or Clarke-Salter. So all of them including him I would guess. I am trying to think when we last signed a defender for more than that. I am guessing out the air Elliot Ward?
We paid nothing for O hare and £1.3 m for Hamer but Allen at £750 is not delusional.

Player valuations are based on something though? Potential, length of contract, value to the team, performance, what league they play in, age, if they're on the radar of clubs etc.
So it's not really a different story at all as his performances haven't been brilliant recently, he's at the wrong end of 20 and therefore has no potential, he isn't a stand out player in the team and he isn't particularly sought after either.

The players you’ve mentioned realistically not going to be wanted by a better club than us. Could you see a Preston or Hull paying £750k for Allen or Kane?
The Philosopher

Hull had Kane on loan so might be interested.
Apparently, he claims to have been subject to a £13m bid from SUFC (who aren’t a better club based on Saturday)
QPR ready to axe Todd Kane and bring in right-back
QPR want to bring in a right-back this summer. There seems to be no way back for the out-of-favour Todd Kane at Rangers.

He’s not worth £13m. Obviously. 5% of that. Ish.
Allen?
On current form he is worth something.

No one has or would ever bid £13m for Todd Kane. That summer he joined QPR on a free - quite the fall from grace!Hull had Kane on loan so might be interested.

We got Julian Gray at 27 for nothing. Sold him (he has gone) for £500k I think. These things happen.

Normally I’d agree. But we are talking Sheff Utd.
I saw Ollie McBurnie play and I’ve seen his stats. I’ve seen his fee.
Case closed.

McBurnie scored 22 goals for Swansea the season before they signed him. Kane had a few nondescript loans at Championship clubs
