Signings over the last few years who are worth more than when we signed them
Saw a list somewhere of the over 50 incoming players in the last 3 years although that includes loans. Our transfer policy has been #####ic since we "got rich".
Dunne, Taarabt, Austin, Simpson (sold), Rob Green, Yun, Fer, Henry, Barton (Free transfer), Remy, Mackie. Those are the players sold In the Fernandes era who we got more than we paid for and could still get more.

Theoretically, since all of them remain with us apart from Simpson, Mackie and Remy. And I doubt we'll get anything like what we paid for Sandro or Mutch or Fer or even Caulker.
Dunne is off the glue factory after us surely? 36 this year and his legs have been letting him down already this season. Sandro was a total waste of money for a crock too.

That is literally the whole point of this thread, the theoretical side of it. How would we know how much we would get for the others, Sandro, Mutch and Caulker are still improving and I have to disagree with you about fer, we will easily make more money on him, with the performances he is putting in. Although why would we sell him?

I mean, he certainly held his own against the top scorer in this league, and plenty of other matches, so I don't think he is worth less than the free we signed him on.
