The fact that some of you would be fine with selling him confuses me a little...
He's the only truly world class player we've got - and our replacement would be at leaast 2/3 tiers below. Since when did we ever improve after selling our best player?
Our aim should be to keep ALL our big players from now on, even if it means lowering the spending a little imo.
That's just not realistic though is it? Sounds great but its not going to happen. Until we're in a bigger stadium and in a position to offer larger wages and become more competitive, players in and around the world class bracket, or verging close to it, will continue to look at us as a stepping stone to a bigger Club.
