Think he will be off as he is easily sell able especially if he has a decent world cup ..

flashes of ability but little more. I'd look to sell for some ready coin to put in the FFP pot

Sell for me - Hasn't set the world alight here and the transfer fee along with reduced wages will help.

Not been overly impressed but there have been flashes of ability, especially when played in the centre.

I'd prefer to keep him if it were a simple choice between him and getting rid of Whelan and/or Jedinak (who'll both be a year older and less mobile next season).

Rather keep him than Whelan or Lansbury.

Likewise. But I fear he'll go to the first bidder, no questions asked.

His style is most similar to Hourihane.

Birkir being similar in style to Hourihane isn’t a bad thing. Thinking about it, Birkir offers more with his bursting runs and can beat a player or two. See his goal v dogheads and he’s scored another with a dynamic run v Bristol city. He’s certainly improved in his time here let’s hope with more game time he will get even better.

Not sure we'd get that much for him?

Personally if we got a big bid for hourihane I'd sell him and keep BB

If someone offered 10 for Hourihane based on his goal return I'd snap their hands off.

10? Fuck yes

We bought him for so little it would make a massive dent in our FFP problem. Plus he's not actually that good, albeit his habit of scoring is very handy

No brainer, he was so ineffective in too many games including the final.

I’d still want more than a tenner for him, though.
