How much is Taarabt realistically worth?

[kingy10]

Adel has a lot of raw talent, and that is a rare commodity. That is what makes him worth millions.

If he could produce his best fairly consistently, I think he'd be worth at least 20m (and off to Man Utd).

But he cannot. 3-4 exceptional games a season? 20million mmmmmmm. What did RVP cost?

Just can't be bothered with this constant bugging up of Tarrabt, no one wanted him after his best season, he is 2 years older now and no longer a POTENTIAL talent. Be very surprised if anyone in the prem was interested so would say be lucky to get 3 million. But as I keep saying to all his fans time will tell and as in all things reality comes into play eventually!

£3m ??, you serious? He pretty much got us promoted on his own.

Fergie would never sign Adel.

Time will tell Matty but why no bids after his best season in the Championship??

Wasn't he very close to signing for PSG before a new manager/director came in or something like that? I'd count that as a bid then. Then he spent about 3/4 of our first season in the Prem pretty much sulking about it and not doing much. Hughes came in and he changed completely, as if it was a fresh start... Confidence player imo. As soon as this happened he looked a changed player, picked up a few assists and a couple goals at the time. This season he's improved massively imo. Still a show off and a bit childish, but that's Adel Taarabt for you. Saying that, he has matured big time. Reckon we'd be about 10 pts worse off without him (4 goals and 5 assists)

Pretty sure PSG bid £12m and Flavio tried upping it to £15m and it all fell through.

Wouldn't believe everything you read in the press, if that was need the case why didn't they come back in for him once Flavio and co left. He wasn't playing at the time and seemed to remember Warnock saying he would drive him to Paris?

But yet you're happy to read things in the press when they're anti-Adel?

If Jordan Henderson is 16 million and Zaha is 12 million, then Tarbs is 18 million.

Of course, Henderson and Zaha aren't really worth those figures so I'd say 7 million.
