Did they recently increase his 70 mill valuation?
Ah yep I see
Kayo 90 mill
Yay-zoos 75 mill
Nelli 60 mill
Odegaard 60 mill
Saliba 50 mill
In terms of overall roster value we are now ahead of Tottenham and about equal with United. We used to be hundreds of millions behind both.
Chelsea remain ahead of us but largely because when a player gets bought for a dumb amount they automatically adjust their estimate higher to reflect that fee. So Cucurella and Fofana are both more valuable than Saliba, Havertz more valuable than Martinelli, etc.

Weâve closed the gap on Liverpoolâs squad to around 100 mill also when it was around 400 mill difference in terms of value 18 months ago.
Our squad building last couple of years has been rather good.
Fucking helps when you get Bukayo from the academy and Martinelli for 6 mill though and both are 21 with a combined value of 150 million quid.
Jesus and Odegaard elite signings for price paid.

This is why a strong season could be a game changer. Liverpool, City and previously Chelsea used to shift so many of their squad players for inflated fees.
If we somehow win the league, I expect Edu to start cashing in on many of our player.
Chelseaâs squad value is distorted. And hard disagree on Mason Mount being worth 75m lol.
Weâre only marginally behind United who have 7 more squad players than us, and again have some whacky price tags because of how much they spend on players.
Itâs far from a perfect metric, but it does tell you that our players have developed considerably and are putting in high-value performances.
We were behind Spurs last time I checked and now weâre over 70m ahead of them. Trust that process.

Spurs have finished about above us 6 seasons running, but with the trajectory of the spurs squad and our squad that diabolical run should be coming to an end this season, once it does they shouldnât be finishing above us for a while.
Cunts.
I never want to experience 6 consecutive seasons below spurs in my lifetime again.

All of that to win fucking nothing. It makes for great comedy. Iâll take it.

Iâve had a Spurs fan once seriously bring this into a discussion. I couldnât believe what I was hearing. Sick lot.
The trophy drought done too much of a damage to them. Itâs sad really.
Dele Alli was once rated as a 100m player on Transfermarkt. The kind of silly shit that meant they were miles above us in the team value stakes.
I wouldnât even describe his decline as a fall from grace. I never knew what exactly he did on a football pitch other than run into the box and have a few goalscoring purple patches. Was never sustainable.
Shocking that he got 37 caps for England.

Squad value really has no real meaning for me. If a club buys a load of shit players for high distorted fees it means their squad is more valuable than others? Does that then put them top of this highest valuable squad list?

Itâll change in time if theyâre performing shit though, Pepe ainât valued anymore near the 70 mill we paid for him.

Is the Arsenal tax so high, that it overshadows his status as one of Englandâs star players? He was voted player of the year, he should have better protection, treatment, benefit of the doubt⌠But no. Mad.

I loved that he just went and kicked the Chelsea cunt after not getting the decision. I donât remember too many fouls on him after that.
