Not had a good season, looks to be losing his drive, no spring chicken, still worth good money. We expect him to be the best player on the pitch but I can't remember the last time he was our best player, nevermind the best on the pitch. Club politics would be easier without him too, and I think it would be eaier to pick a formation suitable to the opposition without trying to accommodate him. Once there was talk about playing him in any outfield position and him being the best there, now we talk about how he can't play in the middle and can't/won't play on the right. We can't play 442 with him in the team
I have no time for sentimentality, his past performances are banked and he would leave as a legend, but it's time.
Anyone got any compelling reasons why we should keep him, preferably footballing ones rather than "his fee would just pay off the debts of the Americans.."?
