DaveF Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Would rather keep him for that amount! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol_Badger Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 He's not worth anything more than 2 Million - We'll be lucky to get anywhere near that in our current position and his contract expiry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob k Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'd take 1m for 4 new players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corleone Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Albert is far too good for league 1. People forget that if we keep him he will be a major asset next season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I would love to keep him. Let's be realistic though, with him having only a year left on his contract combined with relegation we were never going to get anymore than 1.5mil for him.

screech Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Got to sell this season. He's out of contract at the end of next season and we would be idiots to let him go for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiale Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 http://www.slp.co.uk/sport.cfm?id=17495&headline=Palace%20target%20Adomah's%20asking%20price%20is%20cut I'd take it - put a sell on clause and a promotion clause (if CP don't win the final this week) - alternative is we will lose him for free at some point anyway.

UREDS_91 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 What's saying if we go up next season he won't resign with us for our season back in the championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiale Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 What's saying if we go up next season he won't resign with us for our season back in the championship? So we get nothing for him as he goes of on a free tfr, because we are pinning our hopes on automatic promotion... I guess we could also all sit on the sofa everyday with no income/pension in the hope of winning the lottery.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldlandReddies Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Whilst he is worth more, I doubt we will get more than a million for him. If Palarse go up then its odds on he'll end up there. Failing that, he will be either a Southampton or Cardiff player next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcityman Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'd take 1m for 4 new players We won't get 1m to spend on four players though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JammyOne Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 We should spit in the face of anyone who offers any less than 2.5M for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolgoc Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 He is only worth 1.5 million if we are lucky, it's all paper talk last season he was worth 2.5-3.5 million, let me honest he is a one trick pony and there are far better players out there from 2 million.. Cash in and let SOD show his worth by getting better young players who want to play every minute they can for the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoingUp Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Cant see why we didnt sell him in january as SoD saw him as too much of a risk to play him much anyway.does anyone know the exact amount of the best bid we turned down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheddarReds Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'd like 2M but I can't see us turning down 1-1.5M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Albert Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 It just puts into perspective how overvalued and overrated Zaha is. Albert got more goals and more assists than Zaha last season, in a crap team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xerox6060 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 The way he played after Christmas I think he's only worth about 500k, I expect a deal to be which we leave us with close on a million after extra's etc, agreed top asset at league 1 but I don't think SOD rates him to fit into his plans etc, he'll be gone.

screech Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 If we keep him and he gets us back in the championship then goes on a free, are we still idiots then...? If he goes for nothing yes we are. We never choose the right time to sell, we always seem to leave it too late. Your best players should never be in a situation where there is just 1 year remaining. He's said he has his sights on playing in the Prem one day, I personally don't think he's anywhere near good enough to be any teams regular pick in the top flight apart from say a team just promoted.

Nogbad the Bad Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I don't believe the 'London press' when they say City would be prepared to take 1m for Albert. Why would we? Palace are far from the only team said to be interested and Albert's a top Championship player and worth far more. If you really want him Hollowhead, start the bidding at 2m.

Carey 6 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Anything over 1.5 mill. I hope we don't keep him and I'm one of his biggest fans. He's massively underrated by city fans and gets far too much bashing on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Jordan Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'd take £1.5M, no less. We even rejected a reported £6.5M bid for Maynard when he was in a similar situation (albeit it didn't end well, due to Nicky messing the club around in a way Albert never would). Whatever the outcome, it's sure going to be a sad day when Albert does leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screech Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 If he gets us back into the championship and then leaves on a free then thats good for me.... So if we keep him and we finish mid table and leaves for nothing are you still pleased? My thoughts are fans are falling into the same trap that has dogged us for many years, believing we just need to turn up and we will get promotion. Transforming this gutless pile of crap into a promotion winning side is going to take more than a pre season, regardless of Albert being here or not. Potentially losing out on a fee which can pay for some of the rebuild is madness, Albert is not going to be with us after next season anyway, he wants potentially bigger things. He alone wont drag us up, no matter how good he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 We need to learn our lesson from the Maynard fiasco. Rather see us take a slight hit now than a massive one when he's out of contract. Anything over 1m and I think we have to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 We take what ever the club deems suitable That could be 100k to 5 million we just don't know Albert may not want to leave ether, Etherway I'm not too bothered he's always given his all and whether he leaves on a free or for millions I will thank him for the small bright spot in a otherwise crap 3 year period Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
