As said by an earlier poster, this will come across as blasphemy to some, but I'm not actually going to be that fussed if he goes. Whilst his dedication (till last year) over some tricky times has been more in the LeTissier mould than the Lovren mould, I don't think he's contributing anywhere near enough.
His consistency in terms of performance hasn't been up to scratch and before our mini-reality check/slump lately and before his injury he seemed to be looking good in a team that was looking good but not able to consistently change things when the chips were down.
I remember the Villa game that required cool heads and experience when we went behind, but the passes he was making were off mark in terms of accuracy and in terms of what was appropriate for being one down to a poor side.
I think we've seen his best here and that his heads already been turned, we never thought there would be life after the Summer exodus, but with 25 million from morgan and a few quid from the others that have already been tapped up, I'd like to think we could be in a better position after he has gone.
Let the haters hate....
