Pretty much the last window to get money for him, so makes sense we are open to offers. Feels £15m-£20m is a reasonable expectation.

 

Do think he would be a very useful player for a lot of sides in bottom half of Prem, and for him, a chance to remain a regular in Prem on a nice final contract.


Final contract? He’s 27, he could play for another 8 years or more.

I think he probably meant final good contract. If he signs a five year deal, he'll be 32 when it expires - so he won't be getting another lengthy deal at that point.

I think he'll end up leaving on a free and potentially going to one of the newly promoted sides

 

Might end up going to one of the lower end clubs in January I think, would make a lot of financial sense

I think it's probably a good time to sell considering we've got Miley to come in.

We'd need to replace Longstaff if he goes tbf, but it'll be with another hybrid type 1 that can play RCM and RWF

Really interesting that he isn't starting this game. That RCM position had always been his. Is the writing on the wall? Could he be sold?

Well I’m glad that Howe finally has done something with our midfield that gives us more playing depth between midfield and attack instead of a pretty flat three that he insisted on for quite a while. Has also helped us defensively. Along with Tonali of course.

Agree, the recent improvement isn't just because of Tonali in the 6 and Bruno in the 8. The midfield three are far more flexible now.

 

Could also be helped by Hall supporting Gordon meaning the LCM doesn't need to support the winger as much.

I really hate digging the lad out but he's clearly not got the correct mentality for an elite level player.

 

This is the game where he needs to boss the midfield, dictate the play and really stamp his authority, yet he looks afraid of his own shadow.

 

We can all point to his ability but his general outlook and attitude is so negative.

 

When Miley is the one who looks to have the maturity, it says everything IMO.

 

Honestly, it's time for him to leave. I cant stand looking at his face when the crowd groans at him. It's all just a bit sad.

Yeah he’s just not good enough sadly, should be dominating things
