Toby still has 2-3 years in him that we could not buy for £50 million. Him and Verts are Rolls Royce defenders and the club should work to keep them for the next 2 seasons as we will be a worse team without them.

Well I said he would stay to run down his contract in a situation that would suit both parties, we get one more year and he gets a big contract offer next year.
All in all this has not been a bad resolution.

I think there's a general pattern that clubs just aren't paying fees for older players any more (Ronaldo excepted, but that was offset by the guaranteed commercial revenue)

He will leave on a free next summer to go to Ajax just like Blind did (he went for a few I know)
It’s good for him and good for us as we would have had amazing value from him
Fair enough, just thought that at 31 he might prefer to play in a higher quality league for another year or two before making the move.

that's how the contract is supposed to work.

Totally ignoring the fact he could have left for the 25m clause which was everyones fear....but yeh ok.
Like everyone runs down their contract

We really would have got 2 years out of him as we were having the same conversation about getting rid last summer as all of us thought the 25m clause was a dead cert for him leaving this season
Toby has f.cked up a bit as he's chucked away some good earning years by holding out and if he wants to go on a free next year it will be another year in the 60/65 k pw. And a free to Ajax might get him 5m signing on and I doubt anymore than 50k a week.
He should have signed up seasons ago he'd have raked in 130-160 a week for the last 3 seasons

It’s for all bidders
Although the original “leak” was from a Belgian journalist who just put it out there as if he was selling Toby

If he signs an extension and knuckles down then all the better.

Mark Falco
His effort and work days can’t be questioned surely?
He has never sulked or kicked off
Nigeyman
Chris Armstrong
Not his professionalism or effort, though I think, subconsciously as humans with uncertainty over our contract, or where we work, or where we will be.
These distractions of the mind stop us from displaying our best, as could explain, Eriksens flat end of season form.
Bedfordspurs
Mark Falco
Not really
I think that’s just a myth pit out there to hide a lack of form, fitness or even luck
Well that’s my view on the contract thing as these players need to perform to get that big move if that’s the uncertainty
Nigeyman
Chris Armstrong
Yeah perhaps your right on this, if Eriksen really did want that move to Madrid he could have made a strong rather than a so so impact for us to enable that.
Or perhaps that was his intention but he exerted to much pressure on himself which didn’t help his cause in the way he wanted.
Who knows, bottom line I think it would be great if Toby stayed and signed.
