I was going to reply to thia before the Wolves game but I really don't understand why some are wanting our current captain to go. He is superb, maybe not for the full 90, but nevertheless I would keep him. AJ, depends on the next 10 games really.
I agree Craving. Why people are so ready not to try everything to keep him is beyond me. Evidence Captain Murphy hardly put a foot wrong today, was often available, and made 2 of our goals today.
Murphy and AJ were terrific today. Bit bonkers, I know, but if people think Scholes should be in the England squad in the Summer then why not Murphy? It'll never happen, but if you're looking for someone who can sit in midfield and spray passes around then there aren't too many candidates with Wilshire injured.
Murphy was very good today. I agree with the view of him playing 60-70 mins per game and preparing a replacement. But depends on what he has in mind. AJ always a hard worker but the only way to stay is to accept reduced wages and the role of squad player rather than regular starter. At the end all depends on the negotiations.
