Totally understandable and obvious this was the situation for a while. He'll be able to get a much better contract in the summer being in the World Cup with Icelancd. Much than what we can offer in the championship (with diminishing parachute payments).
He's the type of guy to give it everything and try and get us back to the PL. So he may stay with us yet...
A shame, but you can't begrudge this player anything. Been terrific for City and his country, so if there is the chance of a mega contract before the end of his career, he deserves it.
I doubt whether City could match what would be on offer from abroad and playing for us in the Premier League wouldn't be much fun in any event.
Fair play to him his next contract will probably be his last big one and his stock could be high after the World Cup.
Hope a way is found to happily stay. Really do.
Sell him in January to try and get some money in.
A great servant to the club. Good luck in whatever comes next.
Should have pursued Ledley a bit hrder maybe in the summer.
I only want players who want to stay anyway, good luck to the lad probably on a bloody good wage and been tapped.
If we get promoted we will need better quality in the Prem anyway. Gunnar was out of his depth, along with the rest of the squad, the last time we were there.
I think this is a bit harsh. he's been a great servant for us and you know you'll get 100% and them some right up to the end of his contract whenever that may be.
His stock is high and he wants to play at a higher level - I'm glad we have players who have ambition and want to step outside of their comfort zone. If we can't match that expectation then we cannot stand in his way.
Will be gutted that he goes as I can’t see him staying regardless of us getting promoted (don’t think our wages will match what can be offered elsewhere)
Good player and keeps us ticking. I do trust him to keep giving us 100% though regardless if any club tries to unsettle him. Hopefully He’ll pay back what we lose in transfer fee by getting us promoted.
Well not for me as a Premier League player they dont.
His passing isnt hindering us because we play in the championship, not the premiership, where if you surrender posession easily you will get punished far more than you do in the Championship. Ralls isnt a good enough passer for the Premiership either. I wouldnt expect to see either of those players in a Premier League team.
If this team goes up it will need serious surgery.
We should be looking to sell him in January. Hes a good championship player but replacable.
Cheerio - a player that can't pass the ball 5 yards, will miss his long throw, that's about it.
How 'get rid'?
He's got a contract until the summer, so if he doesn't want to move he won't go anywhere.
If what Warnock said today is right, Gunnar wants to stay for the season and get a promotion on his CV. If that happens he may want to stay a good while longer. I expect the club would want that too.
It's the Championship he wants to leave behind, not necessarily Cardiff.
