And this is a player that will want to be a regular international player, and start every week. I just can’t see him wanting to be a squad player or us spending big money to be one. Even on his best day he’d be 5th in line to start. If he left in January he seriously risks his England chances due to us having 18 games left and our midfield is about to look the strongest it’s been once Bissouma and Sarr return.Because we need a squad not a team.
Because Skipp, PEH and GLC are likely gone in the summer.
Because we'll be in Europe
I just don’t see how he’d want to come here over being a first name on team sheet for a West Ham/Palace/Brighton side or even wait till end of season and see if there’s a spot at Newcastle.
