F. Spiksley Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I anticipate a high six-figure fee for McGugan. I can't foresee hitting a million, simply because of his situation at Watford. That would be a steal. Would like that. I can't see Watford parting with him for less, unless we have already tied up a loan to buy deal, with current period acting as a discount on his price tag. You could be right I suppose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Ben Marshall would be a good addition but feel at £3M someone suggested we can get a better player cheaper elsewhere. We are p1ssing in the wind in we are expecting Hutchinson to come good like some people believe is going to happen. Went off injured again at Blackpool. A gamble that has fallen flat. Think we may have already agreed a fee with Watford regarding McGugan when we got him on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 We may or may not be targeting Ben Marshall, and even if he is a target, we may or may not sign him. That clears that up then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRUCE LEE Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Really, that little? I honestly have no idea about McGugans value. £1.5-£2 m??? I'd surprised if Aldridge pushed any higher than £300-400k We've got the leverage on both McGugan and Watford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCOWL Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Excellent piece of speculative journalism. No contradiction on there whatsoever. Biggs: here's my homework Ed editor: excellent work Biggs, the usual finger in the air offering I see, lovely stuff, are you playing 18 or just the 9 holes later?

IstillhateSteveBould Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I reckon around 1/1.2mill for McGugan. Marshall 2.5/3mill easy. Knockaert on a free would be much better business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parkerowl Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I reckon around 1/1.2mill for McGugan. Marshall 2.5/3mill easy. Knockaert on a free would be much better business or McClean from relegated wigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UTO1867 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Thing is we have spent season after season looking for players that are not wanted by the parent club, coming back from a long injury or are deemed disruptive. If Mr Chansiri is serious do we need to be doing that now? Is McGugan still a target and are we looking at Ben10 through rose tinted (that's how you say it Invers old boy) testicles? FWIW i would love to have both of them at the club but i do wonder if Mr Chansiri would see them as part of a previous chapter and not a new dawn.

Knockaert on a free would be much better business I think McGugan is worth at least that too, but as others have said, we will get him for much less. I'm not convinced that Marshall would be worth as much as you say. If he was rovers would've sold him on January, but he's obviously not interesting anyone. Except us!!

dani_armo Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 we would spend half a million tops for mcgugan, watford want rid and they will be paying him a decent wedge ben marshall isnt worth more than about £1-1.5m. Leicester paid 750k for him and blackburn probably paid the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I don't think its a case of how we think these players are worth. It all depends on how many teams go in for them. Wigan will be a fire sale, but they have players good enough to create a lot of interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not convinced that Marshall would be worth as much as you say. If he was rovers would've sold him on January, but he's obviously not interesting anyone. Except us!! McGugan's a player who managed double figures last season. Whether Watford have bombed him out or not, they're still going to ask for a decent fee. You might be right with Marshall. I had it in my head Blackburn paid 2m plus for him, but I can't find any evidence of that so I could be wrong. Whatever it was, he's going to cost. Knockaert is a better player though imo, and for nothing, we have to be trying to get him in. All 3 would be lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Blackburn would probably just want their money back for Marshall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'd love Marshall back, but wouldn't pay over 2mil for him. That's excessive. 1.5m on Ben10, 1m on McClean, 500k-ish on McGugan, and up to 3mil on a striker. One can dream.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheriwozgod Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Ben Marshall , Lewis McCugan , Rodolph Austin , Michail Antonio..................that would do me for our first choice midfield 4 next season please!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wood £1.5/2m McGugan £1m Knockaert free Marshall if he is only going to cost £1.5m, get him in Devante Cole/Will Keane on loan Top 6 team for less than £5m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 No Knockaert? Noises suggest he may return to France this summer. We still don't know if he'd be available on a free or not. Because of age, depends whether Leicester offer him new terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as every other player mentioned. Even McGugan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
