He seemed to be giving a lot more in the WC than he has in a villa shirt.

tbh I'm beginning to think he won't play for any team again, let alone us, ManU or any bugger else!

There's a great player in there...but he is simply prone to injury more than most.

Sad to see in a very modest, genuine player.

It's hard to tell. He's hardly been fit since the World Cup.

I guess this is perhaps why nobody outside of Holland had taken a punt on him before us.

Maybe we should have a poll on him. How many league games will he manage for us this season assuming he stays.

Let's be honest. Anybody that we buy of proven class has something wrong with them, otherwise we would not get them in the first place.

One of the most surprising things about our season so far is that we have not missed him too much, whereas at the start he did look one of the keys to our season.

His recent form has been good, but has become too injury prone which has been the main draw back during his time at the club.  Good luck to him in his recovery, and it would be nice to hold onto him past the summer.

If he's buggering off in the summer who replaces him as captain? I'm usually not fussed about that sort of thing but I suspect making Gabby captain would just make it even less likely that he stops being started every game.

Its a fair question as there do not seem to be many leaders in the dressing room.  Someone like Sancez could be a good fit for captain in the future, but needs more experience at the club first.  Guzan might be a good short.  Am normally against goalkeepers as skippers, but I could see him doing a good job.

I reckon Westwood. Might have been Delph if were staying, but I think that ship sailed a long time ago.
