I can’t believe there are genuine shouts for him to stay.
We want to reduce our wage bill - he’s one of our highest earners.
We want a fit, robust squad - he’s a crock.
We want committed players - he’s ran his deal down hoping for better...
9 in europe, and 3 of the remaining lot are crap (promoted sides). If you don't seize the momentum now (Moyes factor, new stadium and owners) when will you!
the fact he started and doucoure didn’t makes me confident we’ll sign him, if moyes didnt fancy him it would have been very easy to give douc the swansong, plus newcastle away is a tough fixture so doucoure may have made sense in some ways

Absolute no brainer to get this lad in. Yes he’s still a little rough around the edges but his ceiling is high. We should be the ones to make him aim for that.
For the reported £12m as well, surely it just makes sense financially. Even if he’s...
Not signing him would be a bigger mistake than feeding a Mogwai after midnight.. 12 million pounds is a steal, average championship players go for that and more these days.
Know it’s been posted a few times but I’ll never get tired of reminding that it’s 15 million euros which is around 12 million pounds.
Which makes it even more of a no brainer.
Stating both the obvious and what also seems consensus. At 15 million the club should simply need his signature. He's worth that at present level, when you factor he is 22 and showing signs improving i'm not sure what the contrarian take would...
Give him a full season with 2 or 3 better players around him and his stats could be a lot better than that.
Would definitely love to see him signed and a lot of the out of contract players booted out.
Hopefully Moyes now sees him in that role and Ndiaye in Pienaar's going into next year. Be nice to sign some better players and all, but if it's clicked for the gaffer that these (including Beto) can do a job, it means the new signings have to...
Bit weird that it’s not closer to 100%, guys come in and settled straight away and looks to have the grit that’s needed, can score and assist. Imagine not wanting him to sign.
