Just seen that the Darren Ambrose deal towards Birmingham is rumored at around a one million pound package. To all those who say 2/3 million is right for Solly, is this now correct when looking at the Ambrose price?

    Not really, we get mugged off on deals so would probably get less than 1mil for solly

    Agreed, but solly only proven in league one?

    Short answer: yes.
    Solly is a young promising fullback, Ambrose is 31 and just past his peak.

    And Ambrose is only good for patches of games, whereas Chris Solly is a true Gladiator (of diminutive proportions).

    Ambrose is not 31, he is 28.

    I thought Ambrose went for £250,000.

    Clyne to Southampton deal is reported to be 1.5m which is amazing considering Lowton went to Villa for 3 million.

    If Palace can only get 1.5m for Clyne then I doubt we would get more for Solly (heaven forbid we sell him)

    Clyne is out of contract though I think.

    Clyne went to a tribunal.

    Rubbish, and I think you probably know it

    We're comparing a right back who is unproven in the Championship, to a goalscoring attacking midfielder with bundles of Premiership and Championship experience. Hardly a fair comparison.

    Really ? We hardly got a great deal on jonjo and we got 0 for Ambrose I think.

    The difference is that our board at the minute seem to have rich backers and may not be in need of funds, and are businessmen so I don't think that they will let there players leave on the cheap just to get some money into the club, they will hold out for the right price

    Yeah, I don't get the Lowton price at all. SURELY, not better than Clyne?

    Clyne is out of contract, Lowton wasn't. It's been mentioned already.

    Think on reflection we got a good price for Darren Bent.

    I have watched them both and Solly is worth more. Fact.

    A player is worth what the club is prepared to accept.

    I would rather have Solly now than Ambrose. Solly has another 10-12 years to run and Ambrose has 3-5.

    Solly could still get better, especially when you consider he has only really had 1 full year of first team football...

    Solly has to be worth so so so much more.

    Ambrose is a bit of an enigma -looks good then doesn't look interested. Needs to be accomodated rather than slotted in!

    That is not a good deal for an established player with a wealth of experience.
