    Do people reckon Neil should own the 6/cdm role in the prem?

    Good price

    wouldn’t sign a contract when the clubs future next season was undetermined

    form for 66% of the seasons was inexcusably poor

    tempo in Italy might suit him

    We have to be ruthless, no place for sentimentality, we can do better.

    Nope get absolutely dominated. In the championship he had about 2-3 months then just fell to bits. I think he would get swamped. Probably be good in Italy.

    I'd be gutted to lose Neil. Get his contract sorted.

    Don't disagree with your perception of his performances - worth bearing in mind his age though. We see him as a senior pro but he's still only 23. He's still 4 or 5 years away from his prime. Loads of room to develop into a top player.

    I think that’s a high number mind I’d go 30% poor this year and class for about 10 games. The last bit was probably overuse so a definite excuse and some solid defensive cover throughout. Agree on some points though. I have a worry about his pace a league up though when adjusted I can see him being a premier league player. I’m torn in some ways but ultimately I’d want a better starter in the cdm role and maybe want him competing for the 8.

    My preference is to keep Neil, sign a top level 6 and go nowhere near Henderson.

    100% this time, if not I will be dissapointed in @Maccasafc and @CR17 especially.

    Feel watching the CL final shows how important it is to have legs in the team

    Obviously we aren't going to play like them but need energy in the team

    That’s my feeling. Think he’d get targeted because he likes time. RLB has him doing much better with defensive cover but we would need to keep the ball and I think he’d lose too much of it.

    Still going to play teams close to their level. I think half the league has what I would class as an elite 10, Wirtz, Palmer, MGW, Rogers, Eze, Bruno F (if he stays) and more would all make mincemeat out of Henderson.

    That's before you look at teams who don't play with a 10 like the mags with all their midfield power.

    He hasn’t got the athleticism or pace to play in the premiership in my opinion, very good technical player but not quite elite and will get dominated too much in my opinion

    Alan Nixon...I wont believe anything he says until it's confirmed by the club. It's been well known for a while they were watching him.

    Also think he'd be class in Italy with the style of play.

    I could see the club selling for that if he wont sign a new deal and having only a year left

    losing him, jobe and watson within a couple of weeks of promotion certainly wouldnt be good at all mind
