scouse Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Those who think it's good value, why don't we sell Arteta for 3 million, or perhaps Cahill for a fiver? Perhaps we can throw in Jags for 4 or 5 mill and Baines, as long as we get a profit, huh? ALL our players were bought cheap other than Fellaini and Bilyaletdinov and possibly Yak. Take the 4m for Beckford, and then go out and buy a striker with it. You couldn't even buy him back for 4m. He's not on big wages either. The thing is the others are better players so worth more, its a game of opinions you rate Beckford at x mill, I rate him at 4.5 mill as does Sven and as does Moyes.

If Sven rated him at 4m he wouldn't offer 4m, would he? Everybody wants a bargain. Nobody pays market value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I cant see what the fuss is about , the jury is still very much out on Beckford so if he goes for £4.5M great its a good deal, if he stays no problem we need bodies anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badaids Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Not happy about that at all. He was doing alright. At least we've made some cash on a player that cost nothing just over a year ago. But whose going to get the goals now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Good luck to him. yeh, but so gutted hes gone if its true. great business short term but long term? 10 goals a season gone, thats more than 4m worth.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zed Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Are people really that bothered or just want to moan no matter what happens, he seemed to miss more than he hit for me last year and although I thought he would 'come on' this year, I wasnt that convinced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gy-blues Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 For me no great loss, good buisness really as we got him for squat!! Not a bad player if played as one of two upfront, but as all who have watched Moyes and Everton will know there aint a bloody chance of that happening!!! So may as well take the cash, which talksport reckon is 4-4.5 milion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) I'd have liked to have seen him stay and be given more games this season. Then again maybe this was the plan from the word go we take him on for free get some cover when needed and he gets to have a go at putting himself in the shop window? We all know he's no world beater but he was keen and has goals in him and made for a good squad player, Oh well no great loss & we've made a few bob and I wish the lad all the best.
