Any direct quotes , no I didn't think so .If you listen to the latest media reports,both Gomis and Bony want to leave!
My conspiracy theory.
Gomis expected Bony to leave in the summer as did Monk and HJ.
Bony stays, Gomis doesn't deliver the goods immediately so Bony keeps his place.
Once he's signed an extension Bony finds he Gomis is getting more game time (not a lot but more).
Wilf is dropped a couple of times towards the end of the year and doesn't get the outright accolade of being top scorer in 2014.
When we looked like getting a European place Wilf was happy to stay but we have dropped down the league.
Wilf looks increasingly cheesed off - press continue to speculate on his future and when he joins up with Ivory Coast meets Champions League players and decides he wants some.
In the mean time HJ again makes noises he is available at the right price.
Bafe realises he's not going to be first choice and asks for a transfer, Monk gives him more time but this hacks off Wilf and doesn't impress Bafe.
At 29 Bafe realises he doesn't have many years left at the top level and asks for a transfer - if he goes he's happy, if he stays he's still looking over his shoulder and Wilf's return.
All speculation
What I have seen though, is Bony and Gomis both looking very unhappy. Wilf's face during the Liverpool game was not one of a happy player and even after scoring twice in the FA Cup Bafe looked less than thrilled
That's a decent screenplay for a TV series. Sell it to the highest bidder.![]()

Its a perfect storm for selling assets for us .We are almost safe 1already , top teams in England and Europe are ready 1to start a bidding for Bony , Bony wants European Football , hide between the lines all you want , he wants a bigger club.As for Gomis and Shelvey , teams want them and I believe they want a new start elsewhere .Gomis because he wants gametime , Shelvey because he wants ro play in a Siggy type position and not forced to play away from his strengths .
Enigma, Bob. You won't sell it without getting the title right.
