Cresswell was a bargain for West Ham really. He had a bit more experience before being sold, so the buyer knew they weren't getting a one season wonder.
I'm not saying Mings is a bad player at all, but he was rated lower than Craig Forsyth statistically for his position this season and I don't think I'd expect to get any more than £1m if we ever sold him! If Mings has another standout season then I'm sure his value will be closer to £7-10, I just don't see anyone gambling that much on him this summer.

We got 3.5m(rising to 6 or so dependant on appearances etc) for cresswell from west ham and he was their player of the season by a distance. Mings is younger, taller,quicker and potentially more talented so I think 7m is reasonable although I'm obviously deluded. I think he'll end up at centre back quite soon. Really hoping Newcastle go down as quite a few of their fans probably do also....
