I can understand people thinking that its not a bad time to sell him. 1 year left of his contract. Has had a prolonged injury free spell, increasing his transfer value Opens up room for spending FFP wise Really like him and the attitude he has shown fighting for his place back in the team though, so I rather want him to stay personally.

The fee being undisclosed makes me doubt that the leaked fee is correct.

We will have a lot stronger squad this season with Gordon, Anderson and Miley taking a step up and 3-4 signings coming in. Only losing ASM who didnt get many minutes last season. Unless we plan on going to the final I think we can handle the extra games from CL just fine. Cant be unlucky with injuries in the defence though.

Guess Howe didnt want to keep him then, probably has his reasons. Quite surprised if there wasnt any other interest at the price level.

Getting some quality cover on RB/RW isnt the worst thing.. All thats missing now for this transfer window is a world class LB.

I wouldnt mind either of those things. But yes, the personality of the footballers has a say in what i think of them.

As someone who wanted him to stay here, I think i will forget him pretty fast. His edgy emo instagram posts turned me a little off tbh.

True Still think he will get alot more chances here than he did at Leicester.

Think this guy will get alot of goals for us considering how many chances we wasted last season. Happy to get him if Howe thinks its best to get rid of ASM. The funds from the sale will hopefully allow room for signing a more attacking left back aswell.

Dont forget that the entertainment value he brings is worth a few bucks.

Schär will get some competition on the post match celebration pictures.

Dont underestimate the power of money, especially over those already bitten by the disease.

All depending on you believing the dodgy £30m rumours.

No way that the fee is £30m or below. He has a £32m value on transfermarkt, Saudi could easily pay 40-50 without people raising an eyebrow. People who follow other teams dont remember his injury record or that he sometimes can be frustrating to watch.

Saudi will give him whatever money it takes to tempt him down there if Howe wants to get rid, it means "nothing" to them compared to our success i think.

Like i said, criticism of his injuiry record is fine.

Why? Its a valid stat. He cant make Willock, Longstaff and Joelinton score when he playes them on in a good position.

They sure arent pointless when people are saying that he doesnt have any output. I think the only valid criticism of him is his injury record and that he maybe doesnt fit Howes playstyle

Didnt ASM have one of the highest expected assists per minutes played this season?

Worth it if Tonali is starting Possible to watch outside of UK right?

Im fine with it if we get a fee of atleast £50m. Sad to not see him releasing his full potential in our current team though.

We may all have our opinion on this case(where most of us dont have all the information), but lets not judge his friends/collegues that are relieved that he was found innocent in the court. I doubt that they are standing behind him while also thinking that the court got it wrong. Most of us want to think the best of others, especially those we know in real life.

Which stat accounts for ASM binding up multiple defenders allowing more room for the rest of our team? Stats arent everything.

Have you guys forgotten how many times we complained about our shitty bench last season? We need depth.

Seems like a sensible signing. We need squad depth for the upcoming season. Maxi is unreliable in terms of fitness and Gordon is unreliable in terms of quality. With his quality finishing he can be used as a 3rd backup striker aswell. Dont think it means that Maxi is going anywhere.
