He has looked good in most of the games that he has played in.Thought Moore’s performance tonight was one of his best so far. Very assured.
Quite a test for him and Dickie on Saturday...

Apart from Maddison who left on loan but is out of contract in the summer?
But he will have left for nothing (apart from a loan fee). It just shows that in a game where 2 or 3 year deals are the norm, it's very difficult to call it right with selling or keeping players.in that case yes, but they transfer list every player that has one year left on their deals
Agreed. I think when he comes out with the ball, which he does often, he uses it even better than Dickie.

£4-£5m more realistic ...plus proverbial add ons . Problem is (IMO) while L1/L2 clubs, OUFC board included, as demonstrated in Jan , as well as with Whyte, continue to roll over and allow Championship /PL clubs to perform financial rape on them, ( Both PL & Champ sides get obscene amounts of £ from TV companies), by accepting speculatively low offers for players. Nothing wrong with the sell on for a profit model (if the timing is right) , however until OUFC board learn how to play hardball in negotiations, instead of undervaluing the (proven- how long till OUFC got a win in 2020 ?) effect of disrupting a winning team has, as well as underpricing 'our' assets, aspiration & ambition of genuine progression, in real terms as spouted by Board members is just PR spin. As KR has asked, the Board need to think and act like a big club, and the sooner the better.THE SECRET SCOUT: Oxford's Rob Dickie is a defender on the rise

There is some quite optimistic valuations of our players on here.
Quite.
1 million tops for a league 1 central defender with a year left on his contract in the summer.
Pompey sold a centre half for £3.5m and add-ons last summer who was in exactly the same contract situation. And the rumours of PL Southampton and Burnley being interested wouldn't rule that out happening again if a bidding war starts but we could get less, who knows.
