We can buy players to that value or develop players so their value goes up.

Even lowly Huddersfield are 28M ahead of us.

60 million would perhaps make us safer,however if we go down get ready for another Slade cost cutting era.
Think its hard to purchase in January, unless players are in the last 6 months of their contract.
So much better value in Europe, I see Brentford reportedly want 15 million for Maupay.
Totally unrealistic.
Just highlights that we should have completed our signings in the summer.
Ihaenacho £25m (Leicester City) Forward
Mounie £10m (Huddersfield) Forward
Seri £30m (Fulham) Midfield
Sorloth £6m (Palace) Forward
Vestergaard £20m (Saints) Defender
There's a £100m that has been spunked by other clubs on dross that is now worthless
Iheanacho's market value is the same as when he was bought for 25M.

Mounie's market value has nearly doubled, 5M to 9M.

Seri's market value is the same since Fulham bought him for 27M.

Sorloth's market value has nearly tripled from 1.8M to 5.4M since Palace bought him.

Vestergaard's market value has increased from 12.6M to 18M since Saints bought him.

If we had spent 50M in the summer, I think we'd be comfortable. We should have had a 3-year plan to spend at least 50M each summer and find a long-term manager.
Those players are flops and there is no way on earth (apart from some stupid football manager wannabe site) that anybody would pay anywhere near those values for those players.
Just a quick glance on google against any of those names will see the vitriol and bile attached to those players.
I'm sure they are also pretty good on FIFA but in the real world they cost nearly £100m and in the real world they are sh1t.
I'm sure if we offered £10m for Iheanacho Leicester would sell (I'm sure Leicester supporters would drive him here themselves to use a messageboard favourite) - but he's a very bang average player with a vastly over inflated transfer market value that nobody in their right mind will pay
I guarantee you most of those players will be off loaded in the summer at a fraction of their vastly over priced cost.
I feel like wages now are so high players are generally worth a lot or next to nothing. If we were to put all our players up for sale tomorrow I don't think we would raise a lot of money at all.
I've always said we don't really have good saleable assets probably get 70 mill, it would certainly be the least in the league and much less than other championship teams.
