    The mirror are reporting this.
    He’s not a regular starter and has had two red cards this season.
    I say sell, sell, sell.

    Or swap for Carroll....

    No, he has his issues but he’s still better than any midfielder we have save Merino. Replace when we have better and not before.

    If we can get 12 million upwards I say sell. Honestly think he is not as good as people make him out.

    Him along with Mitro need to go and we move on.

    Shelvey will likely miss another 6 games through suspension and then not be played in another 10 so it will be no big loss.

    W/o Shelvey, NUFC would still be in, and likely will return to, the Championship. Merino is 6'2" and fragile. The reason you don't see many 6'2" midfielders is because they break very easily.

    You could say that about Gayle, Ritchie etc... too.. even rafa...reference the championship.
    The bloke is a liability on the pitch and a piss poor role model to the young fans off it.
    Some would argue it’s never his fault... just like it was never the fault of Barton, Cattermole etc

    Whilst he wears our shirt on the pitch I will support him but he’s run out of chances for me. Two red cards already this season says it all.

    He is a horrid human being - get shipped asap - him and West Ham are well suited to one another.

    Dont sell anyone until we have replacements lined up. We are so light in midfield we cant afford Charley ****ing up and leaving us even lighter.

    If we can get a good price for him then l say sell.
    Inconsistent and unreliable, very suspect temperament.
    All things considered l have been disappointed in him.
    If we can get shot of him, l would definitely do it.

    £25m and he's theirs. I mean we just pick a number out of the air don't we? That's how it works right? Hmm, maybe we should go higher?

    If we sell him for 25 million then there is something seriously wrong with the world.

    Decent option to have on the bench. 2nd best we have on what I’ve seen. Until we sign better I’d be reluctant. We are bad enough.

    We can't sell him until we have a definite replacement. It would be totally mental. He does at least have some quality on the ball and we are very short of that.

    He was average at our place 2 weeks ago mate, bit lightweight for the Prem. Same with Sessegnon.
