    Didnt think i'd say this but he's in a bit of a rough patch atm, could be like Torres during the end of his Liverpool days, if someone offers 15m+ then i'd say sell Xisco

    Unfortunately the release clause states that any team taking Xisco (even on a free) MUST also take Willo and Ranger for free. This moment of madness in writing our contractual agreements is likely to mean we can never sell Xisco.

    Xisco is one of our best creative minds in the squad. As evidenced by his sublime defence splitting through ball to set up Amy in our 6-0 romp of Aston Villa. If we sell him, we better be getting a fee upwards of 15m.

    We should start a Hesakmi type rumour about Xisco on Twitter. People have forgotten about him so it will be like a new 'target' and hopefully saggy chops will nip in with a £100k a week contract.

    I wonder how much he's "earned" here? About 5 years at say £40k per week? About £10m, plus £6m transfer fee. Can't be right surely? For 1 goal. Good bit of business Dennis Wise.

    He's going through a bit of a barren spell on the goals front, 1 in 9, but I'm sure this is just a blip. Carroll is currently 1 in 10 for the hammers so he's better than him obviously.

    I'm sure he'll come good in the 2nd half of the season which will put Liverpool on red alert (no pun intended) and they'll be in with a £40m bid in the summer!

    Joking aside I still think it would have been worthwhile affording him at least half of the opportunities that were continually and vainly handed to <doh>Shola<doh>

    You cant blame Wise, he looked good on the youtube video he watched, He scored a bag load of goals (n by a bag load i mean he scored 3 goals and showed the goals from every possible angle but wise wasn't to know it was the same goal over and over)!!

    Yep. I suspect there may be some mileage in the story about owing money if he plays another game.

    Well he's played 9 games, so i would take a wild stab in the dark that the trigger is 10 games !

    Surely the guy (taking any alleged appearance payment for his previous club) would be a better option on the pitch than danger danger nile ranger. Does make you wonder !

    That's about it though ! The number of free kicks he gives away from either being offside or just stupid fouls is a joke, and being a striker its usually when we're up that end of the pitch which means we invariably dont get very far and the pressure gets put straight back on us.

    Doesn't explain the shower of ****e performances we've seen whilst he hasn't played, but that's more down to injuries and just general lack of creativity.

    Hopefully that should all be sorted now and shola and willo won't get near the starting 11 unless we're desperate, or anywhere near the squad unless we are really scraping the barrel....or playing the mackems !
