So this begs the question - why is he even anywhere near the first team?genuinely fascinating given everything else that’s happening with our club right now.

He should be banned from all of the training areas, from the stadium on match days, etc. Let the little clam rot for 18 months. Make him do all the charity events, make him do all the press events - fine him the maximum we can if he doesn't do them perfectly. Leave him out of anything that would result in image right payments. Don't give him access to any of the club's trainers, equipment, nutritionists, etc.
The club can't be held hostage by greedy little clams with an over inflated sense of self worth. We need to ensure nobody thinks they can take us for a ride and accepts the offers when they come in.
What has he said that’s wrong?
Refuses to leave before his contract is finished.What has he said that’s wrong?
He doesn’t want to leave
Gets on with the coach
Happy to work for the team
And... that’s normal at his age isn’t itRefuses to leave before his contract is finished.
I don't think there were any offers that came in for Eriksen - if there were then he's as bad as Rose.And... that’s normal at his age isn’t it
Toby has done that
Eriksen-sen-sen has done that
He also says whilst he is in the managers plans he is happy to stay here
Not sure anyone wants any of our playersI don't think there were any offers that came in for Eriksen - if there were then he's as bad as Rose.
Same with Aldeweireld and that one's completely on Levy not properly anticipating player price inflation. Levy very, very rarely gets it wrong, but he did on that one.

A club can either lose money selling a want-away cheaply, or lose money while they sit around running their contract down. I haven't got a problem with Levy driving a hard bargain when we buy players, but I think it's in our interests to cut our losses with players who want out.

He was arguably our best player in the CL finalHe is not working for the team his performances have had a massive drop off. He like Eriksen might say he is working hard and nothing has changed but it clearly has.
Southampton match at the end of last season was his faults well.
Kid has an attitude problem and should rot in the reserves or go out to Turkey on loan which is now his true level.
