Seemingly on his way to Nice.

If it’s true then he is leaving after one of his best displays for us.
surely means Acuna is coming

It had better be Acuna, and not Traveras.

I don’t understand why we are selling him.  Moreno would be first choice for me, but it’s pretty darn close.

I can only think it is his wages and they don't want one of the top earners to be a back-up option.

It appears he wants to move. He’s clearly quality and used correctly a brilliant asset to have.

Aside from wanting to keep him, what an absolute true pro if he does go, for the two performances like this week, just before he does.

Really strange, seems like we're keen to ship him out.

Emery is on about have 2 quality players in every position, we already have at LB so seems odd to mess with it.

Dare I say he's worth the wages playing like that?

No! He was given the freedom of Edinburgh, anyone half-decent would have had a field day.

You still have the quality to put the ball in, his deliveries were perfect. If Cash had that much space he wouldn't have the same amount of assists.

Agreed.  He's been excellent the last two games.  Unless there is a compelling reason for him to leave, we should keep him.

Sod's law that he starts looking good when it looks like he's off.

To be fair, he was never terrible.  He had Gerrard's cluelessness to deal with and then Moreno came in right after Emery so he lost his place.  Just shows how good all of these players can be with the right coach.
