Sigurdsson is more productive than Ross, Ross is more involved. Personally I'd like to see Sigurdsson join. A lot of his games have been for Swansea and his stats hold up.
Ross has been in the first team for four seasons. He said himself at the start of the season he needed more goals and assists and to be more clinical. He hasn't done that.
I'm not saying he didn't have an effective season. The unfortunate thing is, Koeman's system is better suited to other players, that's just the way it is, it takes nothing away from Ross' ability. Ross could flourish in another team.
I'd like him to stay and do well. But if Koeman doesn't want to wait for Ross to be more productive, it is what it is. Sigurdsson doesn't sound an attractive prospect, but he fits the bill of what the teams is lacking.
