    With deadline day looming, this morning we're asking you: What's your transfer market value? Do your silky skills command a hefty fee?

    Kevin Uppal, Leeds: I'll pay £10 a game! Centre-back. Don't mind a bit of three at the back. My sort of philosophy. You listening Louis van Gaal? 24 hours left... Hummels who?

    Jamie, Leeds: Just returned to the game after six months out eating takeaways. Joined a five-a-side team on a free, but I reckon they will make a healthy profit out of me. Ricky Lambert-style, moving up the divisions.

    Ryan Stendall: I'm English and under the age of 25. Liverpool are already readying an offer of £22m.

    First thing's first, there's a couple of matches in League One to tell you about today. Bristol City host Fleetwood at 15:00 GMT hoping to regain top spot in the league. And at 18:00 GMT - does anyone know why this game is so late? - Walsall tackle Gillingham. A win for either side would be useful as they try and steer clear of relegation trouble.

    Thanks Phil, sterling work as ever. How are we all? Disappointed about Andy Murray? Gutted about the cricket?

    Me too. But the football's on soon, so we've got plenty to look forward to.

    That is all from me. Now that you are warmed up I can hand you over to today's main act, Mr Marc Higginson, who will be your guide for Arsenal v Aston Villa and Southampton v Swansea. Over to you Mr Higginson, sir...

    Toby Charman: I'll play for whatever it takes for the club to bribe my exam board!

    Mark Farrell: My value is probably a pair of dirty socks and a tracksuit two sizes too small - still think and talk a good game with no legs.

    Mike Northover: Scored a goal past Craig David in a school match. Also scored and broke a leg simultaneously so gotta be £25m.

    Hang on, what was Craig David doing playing football? By my understanding he should either be meeting a girl, taking her for a drink, making love or chilling.

    Phil, Crawley: I'd say I'd be worth a few hundred quid! I like playing in goal, have an inexplicably hard head, I'm loud, 6ft 3 inches and don't mind charging out of the box to warn off an attack. Maybe a bit too much for the leagues... I'll stick to five-a-side!

    Rob, Ireland: I was sold for a fiver on deadline day in 1997, from form 11a to 11b. With the current economic climate that must be about £3.50 now! Bargain!

    Jack Killminster: In junior rugby league at age 15 I was once signed by a rival club for £2 . Couldn't deal with price tag.

    Hamza, Oldbury: I'm a goalscorer, I'm sure The Villa or The Baggies could do with that. Brown Ideye is worth £10m and he's only scored by accident.

    Ben, Finchley: For all the good he did for us at a cost of £7m I couldn't do much worse in an Arsenal shirt than Franny Jeffers our "fox in the box". I could be our "baby hippo in the box", so I'd say £7m.

    Luke Tyler: Solid £35. Speed of a gazelle and vision of a hawk. Future number 10 at Peterborough United.

    Like 'em or loath 'em, but agents are now firmly a part of football, and any agent worth his salt will have all 17 of his phones in constant action tomorrow as he looks to secure a sweet deal for some of his clients. But how do you get a player the best deal on transfer deadline day? Our very own Marc Higginson has spoken to David Seligman, an agent at CM Sports in Manchester and an expert in sports law, and renowned agent Eric Hall for some insight into the type of last-ditch negotiations that occur when the transfer window is about to shut.

    Here is one done deal. Crystal Palace have competed the signing Senegalese international left-back Pape Souare from Lille on a three-and-a-half year contract for an undisclosed fee.

    According to the Palace website, the 24-year-old defender is a product of Lille's academy and made 55 league appearances for them, helping them win a league and cup double in 2010/11 and featuring for the club in the UEFA Champions League and Europa League in recent seasons. He also had a season-long loan spell with Stade Reims in 2012/13.

    Pape has won five caps for Senegal, including two in this month's Africa Cup of Nations competition in Equatorial Guinea. He also featured for his country's under-23 side in the 2012 Olympics.

    Tom, London: I'd say £32m, but I think the lunchtime school field transfer from my true year five class to the other made for an inflated price (as well as a few bellows of 'traitor').

    Nat Marshall: 19, English and having built up a great amount on knowledge of the game through Football Manager and Fifa, I reckon £2m.

    Charlie Morgan: I sit in defence and bring only fouls and own goals to the table - so somewhere around Wes Brown's market value?

    We've got a few transfer rumours flying around but not many pending done deals. One that should be complete soon is defender Robert Huth from Stoke to Leicester. Huth, 30, has made 187 appearances for Stoke since joining the club for £5m from Middlesbrough in 2009. However, he will have to wait for his Leicester debut as he is serving a two-game ban for comments made on social media.

    Aaron Nicholson: As a Nottingham Forest fan I must be worth a gamble at any price given our current form…

    "To have 20 goals in May is good but to have that many at the end of January... What impressed me about his first goal was the sheer power he got behind it. It was so quick that the keeper couldn't set himself. What also impressed me was the way he grabbed the ball for the penalty as Andros Townsend, the usual penalty taker, wasn't in team. If he can keep his feet on ground then he's got an incredible future ahead of him."
