Time to offload this guy while we still might get a decent fee.

If we're not persevering with him, the time to get rid was last summer.

He also seems to have a knack for rattling the woodwork the likes of which we haven't seen since Dean Saunder's (or "Sanders" per BFR) poor fortune/finishing back in the day.

We could hardly have sold Bailey last summer, as we had already lost the Moose.

Maybe he's the one we should have kept.

Diaby's head was elsewhere, a second cold West Mids winter might have been fatal.

I heard he wasn't overly impressed with the German Market.

Not sure about that one buddy. I think all parties wanted the move as we had issues with our wages so he probably had to go.

I was gutted we sold diabs. I really liked him. I would sell this bailey in a heart beat he is much worse than doaby was when either were at their  worst.

Bailey was embarrassing on Tuesday  night

Man U being linked, somewhat surprisingly. Not related to Rashford deal. In spite of recent form, I wouldn't let him go unless we got stupid money.

No we do not need to be shrinking the squad further.

Yes we do if it means us seeing the back of Leon. Enough is enough.

Far too often this season, he has offered nothing, lost his feet too often, scored just one goal.  He has been really poor this season and if we could get a decent swap or good cash for him, go for it.
