    I hope we put in a sell on clause I've got a feeling he's going to be worth a good few quid more in a year or two.

      I can't even remember who we sold him to!

        If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

          Doesn't matter, doesn't matter he's 21, he's simply **** and stupid, sell!

            No matter how many times I've read this sentence I just can't seem to fathom what it means.

              I like Shelvey. He's a bit cocky, has a swagger, is erratic, but those are qualities that can be harnessed for the good.

              He has good technique and awareness.

              His one weakness was his finishing. The amount of clear cut chances he spurned was frustrating, but to get into those almost tap in style positions is no mean feat. I expect his finishing will improve too.
              Oh I don't know.

                I don't even know anymore I'm still pissed off we sold him.

                  Really? Where do you think he'd fit into this team? I just cant see how he would have got games for us. He's just not quite good enough, and also, crucially, his game doesn't match our style of play.

                  I think it was a sensible decision to sell him, he was never going to make it here.

                    Now I remember who my first post was aimed at
                    I'm not gonna repost my opinion of Shelvey for a millionth time just to get back a reply 'he's just not quite good'. You don't rate him, I do, let's just leave it at that and after he gets some regular game time we'll see who was right

                      Well it will be interesting to see how it pans out at Swansea as their 'style' is not to dissimilar.

                        See the ball for England's opener tonight

                        We have defo made a mistake selling him. We've been robbed honestly, if Swansea sold him next summer I think they would get £11m-£13m

                          Hopefully we have a sell on percentage.

                            Hopefully we have a reasonable buyback option

                              Has always done well for England against utter ****. Was hopeless at the Euros in the summer though.

                                I don't know why we sold Shelvey in the grand scheme of things, we could live to regret that
