I can see him heading to somewhere like Middlesborough

Apparently that's where you go to win things.

That still cracks me up when I think about it. That Gibson fella must have been a great salesman to get all those players in even after getting relegated.

Yes he should have a word with Southgate. That is if Gareth has free time after counting his medals!

Cant see any premier club being interested in him to be honest , he hasn't looked that good on loan at Leeds or Blackpool, maybe needs to drop a division and try to impress.

No shock that Barry B is not wanted by PL. With only a year left on his contract I can't see us getting much for him.

I'm in a minority that thinks he's a good footballer so I'll be disapointed to see him go. Maybe a new club will do him good because there's a decent player there somewhere.

That 2-2 against United under Houllier was a false dawn on just so many levels. Clark, Bannan, Albrighton and the football we played that day.

He could be good player if he applied himself properly. He needs to be far more focused on his craft and my impression is that Lambert sees him as being distracted too easily by outside football stuff. He might very well sort himself out and be a decent player somewhere else, but he isn't now. He needs a fresh start somewhere else.

I will not be sorry to see him go. Never will be good enough for the premier league. Career in the top half of championship me thinks.
PL has, perhaps because he had to, given all the squad a chance and I thnk his judgement is spot on.
