    If we can get a few bob for him, I would sell tbh. He could go for nothing in the summer.

    If he continues with his current form then get someone with some talent in that actually produces in a competitive game. Seriously cannot remember then last time I came away from a game thinking he's had a great game.

    Played well at Leeds, but I can't recall him having a man of the match performance this season... And with his quality he should.

    I think thats just paper talk. Theres no way blackpool would put a bid in for him after yesterdays game where he didnt play badly but would be about 10th on the list of players you'd want to sign if you saw the game

    Since being restored to central midfield he's been consistently good with yesterday probably being his weakest game. Best player against Brighton, up there against Birmingham good game against Leeds. People don't appreciate that he's a young lad learning the game and will therefore be up and down. Would love him to sign for longer but can't see it after being chuffed around by Flitcroft.

    One of the best midfielders in our half of the division.

    I thought he was rubbish playing under flicker this season. But he never got more than 60 mins on the pitch. Since Wilson took over he has worked alot harder. I think if he had a great game yesterday alot of people's opinions on here would be different and sayin keep him till the end of his contract. But people tend to judge alot of players on there last game

    i'd prefer to keep him personally. but with lawrence coming in, and digby coming through, we probably do have enough cover. if it's freeing up a wage to bring in fryatt, i'd go for it. but i'd like him to stay

    Vital player for me is Mellis, give him games where he's best, and we'll see the benefits.

    And no way Fryatt will come, can't afford him and wages will be too high.

    I think it would be pointless to let him go. With only a few months left on his contract what would we get for him? 200k-250k?

    don't see that, personally. jennings and cywka play out wide, and mccourt works even less than mellis. i personally think lawrence will slot straight in

    Maybe Mcourt does work less than Mellis but he is still 3 times a better player, Cywka i probably agree with you, Jennings for me looks more creative and talented than Mellis and Lawrence i forgot about, maybe i should submit the team sheets?

    its ok, who needs a 22 year old mellis when we can replace him with a 30+ Lawrence ffs.

    I like Mellis and think we would be mad to let him go at this stage of the season.

    But i suppose now wiseman, Mcnumpty and perkins have gone someone needs to be crap
