Used to post a little bit but didn't for a while but now want to get back in the mix of it, put just a quick question for the banter page, with the high profile English player moves going on for big money, how much do you reckon players like Scholes, G. Neville, Beckham and more this era players like Carrick and Rooney be worth in today's market, I know Rooney wasnot exactly cheap for then but a player like he and Carrick(whom signed for £18mil) would surely be worth double that when you think of today's market and I'm just a bit curious as to what you lot think they'd be worth if we sold them in today's market when they were in their prime if you know what I mean?

Scholes would be like Messi, unbuyable. Carrick would prob have been 35-40 mil, Neville probably 20-25 mill, Giggsy prob 60-70 mill, and Becks in his prime easily a hundred million if not for his ability, then his marketability.

Neville 40m, Carrick 40m.Scholes 60m, Giggs and Rooney 80m. Becks 90m

beckham was never in the same class as scholes or giggs. Had a great right foot and a good attitude until he met you know who and started to focus on being a celebrity. As previous poster said, half his value would relate to his income he would generate through shirt sales etc

Al -dont agree with your Beckham post He never let the team down His workrate was good .His passing was great and his free kicks were world class.On top of that he was capt whilst Giggs was in the side .All Giggs had over Beckham was pace something Beckham never had .Giggs had some terrible games in a United shirt and to say Beckham is no where near him IMO is not fair âš½

Giggs's price has to be equal to Messi and Ronaldo's today. Back in the days Beckham was my favourite player, but I see Giggs as the best player of that team.

Giggs was a great player for us but he was never in the Messi or Ronaldo class .

Beckham is one of my all time favourite footballers he didn't have the natural talent that some of his teammates had but he was a true example of hard work and dedication paying off a wonderful man to boot .

Beckham was one of the reasons I love watching man utd

Inter Milan offered us 25million for giggs and 20million for Roy Keane asa we won the 98/99 treble so I believe giggs would be up there in the 100million bracket as bale is right now even though bale isn't good enough to polish an in-form in the prime of his career giggs
