Not looking good Decision this week.
A player out of contract in the summer and we’re gonna operate on him?
Being selfish we should get every last drop out of him over the busy Christmas period
I agree why would we spend all the money to get him treated fit and ready for his new clubQuote:

How long before teams like Real Madrid and Arsenal use that argument and seek to charge the (wages/transfer) cost to their clubs of playing star players in important international games when they are marginally fit?Quote:

No but hardly comparable. If he hadn't have gone and played for Iceland while injured bearing in mind he hadn't played for us because he was injured I would have different opinionQuote:

Well I'm not going to use another football example am I, as to you they would all be the same :hehe:Quote:
