4. Gareth Bale (Tottenham)
The most talked-about midfielder in English football since David Beckham could soon become the most expensive, with every day bringing new rumours as to how much Real Madrid will pay for the enigmatic Welshman. However, most importantly, he's expensive and injured, not a good combination in any team. He's unlikely to return to action before the end of the transfer window, hence he'll be missing until next week at minimum. The £11.9 million he costs will buy you every single other midfielder in the game. With 4.1% of teams still containing the midfielder, that's a lot of discretionary spending money for a lot of teams. Get rid of him now, before his value plummets.
