    Aye I've heard they're all insensitive jobsworths them Squirrels like.

    To be fair, if his agent comes asking and wants answers we have a policy of being honest and upfront with our players it seems.

    Not over yet - the offer of $3.6m USD was rejected by the club, but UC are asking for €8m.
    More likely that Aravena moves at the end of the year.

    El ofrecimiento habría sido por 3,6 millones de dólares, monto que fue rechazado por la UC. "Creemos que el jugador vale más que eso", dicen desde los franjeados. De igual forma, a Aravena tampoco le sedujo demasiado la idea por la liga de la oferta y "no tuvo problemas" en aceptar la decisión de la directiva. Sin embargo, lo más probable es que sea transferido a fin de año. Desde TNT Sports, señalaron que Cruzados espera 8 millones de euros por el atacante.

    Another game passes with no striker. Woeful planning by Speakman

    Agreed, also struggles receiving the ball on the half turn n moving the ball quickly which is key to our cdms game. O9 is best as a cb imo, i just dont think he should be a week in out starter

    6 assumes Alese and O’Nien are CB’s. Although he has the frame Alese has been chosen at LB and hasn’t looked especially strong in the air. He might well end up a LCB but at the moment he’s a left back.
    CB is a position where I think you need five and our injury travails over the last few seasons back that up. Seelt, Ballard, Triantis, Batth and O’Nien looks about right to me.

    They need to knock that on the head straight away then, it will never turn out well.

    I think it’s good management, honest that he won’t be likely to get an extended contract so he can properly consider his options. Stringing him along would be **** management.

    Admittedly I've only read reports and watched a few Vids but I think mainly because he is non of these things. From what I've seen he looks similar to Stewart but more physical and a better turn of pace. Think we need someone who can lead the line hold the ball up and has a real eye for goal.

    Great stuff. As I say, I’ve seen so little I fully expected to be wrong on that.

    Nonsense, people get told every day, in every walk of life that their contract isn't being renewed. A good employer gives the recipient plenty of notice so that they can make new arrangements.

    Ffs the club are being fairly open with him and it has been mentioned on here quite a few times that DB only has a year left on his contract and won't be offered the 3 year deal he wants because of his age. So they are allowing him to possibly go if he can find a club who will offer him the contract he wants, the club are being very fair with him and very upfront with the player. Not really the clubs to stand in his way but he may decide to stay. On his last couple of appearances though he has looked lacklustre and not really interested.
