Rashford named the most valuable football player by CIES

[Red Star One]

Now I know there's many that don't take CIES rankings too seriously, but I think it's been a long while we've seen United player on top of their list.

Sounds about right, though? Considering contract length Mbappé is criminally undervalued, but truth be told if anyone came knocking for Rashford they would have to expect to pay a monumental fee.

 

[2 man midfield]

I’d still have Haaland higher but he’s got to be up there.

 

[JPRouve]

It's the first time that their ranking isn't totally ridiculous.

 

[Martial'sEmergingSmile]

Some absolute insanity in there tbf...

Sancho, Havertz, Werner, Dias, Hakimi and Mount being the biggest offenders.

 

[Buchan]

Mount?!

 

[Red Star One]

Some absolute insanity in there tbf...

Sancho, Havertz, Werner, Dias, Hakimi and Mount being the biggest offenders.

You wouldn’t really buy them for less, would you? Werner over Mane is mental IMO, but these are supposed to be prices you’d have to pay to get them. No way City sells Dias - who’s looking really good for them - cheaper than quoted price

 

[AFC NimbleThumb]

2 in the Top 4! I like it!

 

[lex talionis]

What does this really mean...anything at all?

 

[RUCK4444]

Yeah that's a pile of w@nk to be honest.

It's like they've randomly generated player names. I mean Mount ffs?

 

[Valencia Shin Crosses]

Trent? For 150m? My god

 

[Matriac]

Daniel James €61m. Oh ok, can we sell right now? I even like the dude, but not that much.

 

[Siorac]

What does this really mean...anything at all?

Absolutely nothing.

 

[Red Star One]

Daniel James €61m. Oh ok, can we sell right now? I even like the dude, but not that much.

Haven't seen that one, I take half of it in an instant

 

[Siorac]

Daniel James €61m. Oh ok, can we sell right now? I even like the dude, but not that much.

how on Earth did they get to that figure. If anyone offered €61m for Dan James, Woodward would personally drive him to the airport in a limo.

 

[Hugh Jass]

If mason mount is worth 109 million euros then i am the pope.

 

[lex talionis]

Absolutely nothing.

Good. Nothing to take seriously, so we can have fun with it.

 

[Tom Cato]

Timo Werner hasn't defended that valuation, jesus christ

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

And we still have people moaning about our very own Marcus Rashford MBE.

 

[Harry190]

The weird thing about this is that clubs do seem to use it as a reference for their asking prices.

 

[stepic]

laughable set of valuations

 

[The Firestarter]

Daniel James €61m. Oh ok, can we sell right now? I even like the dude, but not that much.

Couldn't find Jesse "preserved value" Lingard on the list

 

[Deery]

How’s Timo Werner’s price jumped £80m by not scoring goals. Stupid list.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

And he's ours

 

[R77]

What a load of b*ll*cks.

Agree with Rashford top though. Said it before and will again; He's priceless to us, utterly unsaleable. If he was 27 and far worse than he is now, maybe not, but a variety of factors make it so at the moment. No way on earth I'd take £165m for him, and the club wouldn't either. I wouldn't take 200m, or any amount.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Surely Kimmich would be one of the worlds most valuable players? He's 25 and easily one of the best midfielders in the world.

Gnabry too...

 

[VP89]

Why is Saka worth more than Kane? They're factoring age way too much into this.

 

[Zlaatan]

Time to cash in on Rashford and Bruno and spend that money on the ultimate cheese room at Old Trafford. We all know it's the missing piece we need to get back to the very top.

 

[The Firestarter]

And no Jack Grealish? This is beyond a joke

 

[3KDré]

What does this really mean...anything at all?

Not really. I don’t think we’d ever sell Rashford, neither would he push for a move unless we were really really poor. So technically he’s priceless right? Or worthless.

 

[James Peril]

Rashford on top? Mount before Grealish? Yeah, I’m not giving that list a further second of my interest. Rashford is criminally overrated.

 

[JPRouve]

Surely Kimmich would be one of the worlds most valuable players? He's 25 and easily one of the best midfielders in the world.

Gnabry too...

It's the CIES, you shouldn't expect sense from their work. Neymar isn't in the list for some strange reason too.

 

[bsCallout]

Rashford on top? Mount before Grealish? Yeah, I’m not giving that list a further second of my interest. Rashford is criminally overrated.

Well he's playing for his boyhood club, a club that won't sell, he's young and is one of the most productive young players in the world.

If anything he has one the most fair valuations.

 

[Dr. Dwayne]

And no Jack Grealish? This is beyond a joke

We're the only club that would come close to Villa's valuation and our interest is the only reason for Villa's valuation. He's a 75m player, tops.

 

[PoTMS]

The valuation of the 3 Chelsea players on that list tell you all you need to know about the rankings.

 

[redshaw]

Mason Mount or Harry Kane, hmm tough one.

 

[romufc]

Rashford on top? Mount before Grealish? Yeah, I’m not giving that list a further second of my interest. Rashford is criminally overrated.

Why do you think Rashford is over rated?

 

[SilentWitness]

Was that made by Pele?

 

[Tony247]

Now I know there's many that don't take CIES rankings too seriously, but I think it's been a long while we've seen United player on top of their list.

Mount 100m!!

 

[Murray3007]

am more looking at Mbappe contract, do they have any 1 year extention options ?

 

[calodo2003]

Total horseshit.
