I honestly dont see why people are so against selling him. Say he goes for £6, are you disapointed? Think what you could do reinvesting that money. Would it affect our season if he left? He is 4th Cb and 2nd RB.
Man U & Everton want Liam Moore

If De Laet gets an injury or Whitbread turns out to be as injury prone as his history suggests then yes it would affect our season if he left.
Also he is a local lad that might come good - having local lads in your team is always better.
^ its nice, but it doesnt mean the team is better if they come from there. I could make a team from my village, but it would be kack.
yes, but if he goes we can reinvest it. Get a better CB and RB in.

Who can we get it that would be willing to be 4th choice CB and 2nd choice RB?
Or get a new 1st choice CB or RB. Thats the other avenue and push the others. Say we sell him and replace him with Harry Maguire and still have £2m in the pocket, would that still be bad?
... I'm guessing that none of the other 10 are the idiot?
... see if this makes any sense to you .. let's just say that 6 young lads emerge through the youth ranks at a small north-west club somewhere near Salford .. for the point of the story let's call them Giggs, Scholes, Butt, Beckham, Neville 1 and Neville 2 ... now as soon as they get a couple of first team games a club comes in and buys them for a not inconsiderable sum ... let's say between £3 and £5 millon each time ... having received this 'war chest' we can now go and buy two for the price of one each time ... now .... how likely are we to win the Champions League in the next 10 years?
... the moral of the story is that it is daft to sell your potential talent before it has been fully realised.
I agree. Unless someone completely offers ott like the 10M I said then I wouldnt consider selling Liam Moore or Jeff Schlupp
I'd say that if a prem club comes in for them, then its down to the player if he wants to go, no point in stopping them if they dont want to be here.
On the other hand do what Blackpool have done with Matt Phillips - now who's the star? .. step forward Mr Ince
The man utd and leicester youth systems are different as we are trying to achieve different things.
Also it is different for Schlupp and Moore as (and im not insulting defenders - i spent most my life as one till i stopped growing) as CBs dotn win you games, they stop you from losing them. At our level, you can just replace him with another competant defender. Say we let him go, and he goes onto big things, but we use the finds recieved to strengthen with a top-class already-developed player who guides us to promotion, have we messed up? Not really. I would like to see him go onto good things here, but im not fussed either way.

ed - just because of where we are currently does not mean we can't unearth future diamonds ... Gary Lineker and Emile Heskey both made debuts at this level but we had sensible managers who recognised the talent for what it was but, more importantly, for what it could become - and they both became crucial players in subsequent promotion campaigns ... and history shows us - were very very, painfully, hard to replace ...
They are badly run club at the moment. The Glazers are a ticking debt time bomb.
