The Great Portsmouth Fire Sale

Portsmouth now have permission to sell there squad and according to their dodgy administrator thats exactly what they plan to do. So what can they hope to recieve for their family silver?

David James - though still prone to moments of brilliance, he is 39 so no more than a nominal fee for him, that is however if he is sold before the end of the season, when he will be available on a free.

Red Ricardo Rocha - will still be in contract, but his form has been iffy at best since he joined in Feb, a million or two if there very lucky.

Aaron Mokoena - signed in the summer on a three year contract, as captain of South Africa he will have a high profile at the world cup so probably worth holding on to till August as he will be worth more.

Jamie O'Hara - probably worth the most of all Portsmouth's players but he is owned by Spurs so no joy there.

Hayden Mullins - Still in contract so worth something, likely to be bought buy whoever wins the play offs as they scramble for players they have heard of, if he goes early he will go to the championship probably on a hire purchase. A million quid if their lucky.

Hermann Hreiðarsson - 35 now, but can still do a job in the premier league, I suspect he may be out of contract at the end of the season however.

Papa Bouba Diop - Though 32 probably though of as a usefull squad player for a premier league club, a year to run on his contract he may go to the middle east or russia for a million, if he stays in the uk £750,000.

Frédéric Piquionne - still owned by Lyon

Michael Brown - a brawler by trade, now 33 so maybe a million if there lucky.

Quincy Owusu-Abeyie
- owned by Spartak Moscow - though they have offered pompey £250-000 to end the loan early, very dodgy.

Antti Niemi - worthless only there in case of fire.

Steve Finnan - only on a years deal so available on a free.

John Utaka - on one million pounds a week, will be the first to go probably to middle east or russia for £2.5 million, if he stays any longer they will have to start paying him in footballers. He already owns fratton park, and last weeks pay check was covered by giving him HMS Ark Royal.
One year left on his contract.

Anthony Vanden Borre - owned by Genoa

Danny Webber - a championship striker at best, not sure if his contract goes beyond the season.

Tommy Smith - another championship striker, this time with a lot of reported intrest from the championship, will probably go out on loan before the end of the season. Three years left on his deal, so maybe a million.

Jamie Ashdown - a perpetual third choice keeper, probably a drop to league one or two for him.

Richard Hughes - now 30 probably one of Portsmouth's most saleble assets, coudl go anywhere for a couple of million.

Kevin-Prince Boateng - the recently Ghanian Boateng is probaly worth £4 million given the circumstances one of the most likely for a quick sale.

Aruna Dindane - owned by Lens, if he plays again for pompey he will cost them £4 million, so is currently been kept in Hannibal Lecter style restraints.

Tal Ben Haim - used to be a good player, then he went to Chelsea and it all went wrong, personally I blame John Terry, I think he does too. Worth a couple of million or 4 if they sell him to Russia which they probably will.

Nwankwo Kanu - the King of Portsmouth, now in his early 70s expect him to score the winner in the cup final and then head of to the middle east for a lucrative contract.

Hassan Yebda - owned by Benfica, not a bad player expect him back in the premier league next year.

Angelos Basinas - a good player, 34 years old and out of contract in the summer, expect him to turn up in Greece or Germany.

Marc Wilson - young and under contract, but sadly not vey good, probably a few hundred thousand to a championship club.

Nadir Belhadj - a good player under contract, expect him to be sold shortly becuase the can sell him for at least £3.5 million.

Joel Ward - a young player who could be sold for a couple of hundred thousand to a championship or league 1 club.

David Nugent - if Burley stay up, he will go there for two million, if they go down he may still go there but for probably nearer a million.

Matt Ritchie - a couple of hundred thousand to a league 1 club.

They can sell the lot but it won't go a long way to clearing their hundred million debts.
