    Sell

    Doesnt score enough, doesnt assist enough, is too lightweight, easily taken out the game. 5m is a fair price tbh,, and it shows how good he is that brighton and watford are the only clubs interested.

    We need another centre back, a rightback and two out and out wingers, not makeshift wingers but genuine wingers who have some pace and can cross. We,re probably 4 maybe 5 playrrs short of being a promotion team,, and selling hughes, martin, weimann, keogh, russell and blackman will give us a little room.

    5 million on any championship player is usually very good business.

    You really don't recognise a good player when you see one and it doesn't matter what we need...you rarely strengthen a team by selling your best players and certainly not for a knockdown price.

    Hughes has to be worth at least £10m. He is an excellent young player who has suffered from both serious injury and the upheaval which has been happening at Derby for over two years now. He might also benefit from an old headed 'warrior' alongside him. He's been expected to carry Derby's midfield for too long and if encouraged to play the positive creative role which he is capable of we will see him at his best again.

    Only sell for £10m or as part of a player exchange deal worth at least that amount imo.

    He needs to do more, there's so much lacking from his game - pace, strength, goals, impact. I wouldn't be upset if he went.

    Adi I'm with you on this one he's a decent player but certainly. not irreplaceable ramAnag is right he has been expected to carry the midfield to much for someone so young But he has been average for a long time the midfield needs sorting when you consider Butterfield Jonson Hughes and Bryson only got 10goals between them in 154appearances Don't forget Hughes was a long time signing his new contract would be surprised if he's not got a sell on clause in it People keep shouting for new players without realising players have to go to pay for it Sometimes you have to sell your assets to move the club forward I wouldn't like to swee him go cheaply but that may be out of our hands

    If Will Hughes leaves it won't be for £5million fact!!! , The pound sign will be followed by 7 zeros, if it's only 6 there will be 2 numbers in front of it!

    Mm wish i shared your confidence, we have a history of letting good players go cheaply and signing crap ones for well over their value!!

    I consider £6 -7 million a realistic fee, posibly rising with add ons, but no doubt we shall see.

    I'm now expecting Rat to pop up and make the false claim that I said Hughes was valued at £15 million!
