I feel this is madness, given our current CM situation. You'd at least think, he would be able to play the remaining games of this season. He's been one of our key performers in the top-6 matches as well.
Where do we get anywhere near that quality for just the rest of the season, for that pittance of a fee? I understand that we'd like to help him, after his many years of loyal service, but why couldn't we just let him go on a free in the summer?
Yes, he's been a loyal servant, and a great player for us, especially during Poch's reign.He felt his body had gone last year but he did everything he could do help and was still masterful at times.
It appears this one is the right timing for everyone involved. So sad to see him leave, of course, but he's always welcome back at Spurs.
