I agree about Ollie, I can't help feeling that he's being protected against injury for a big move to Arsenal.  Probably horlicks to be fair!

I don't want us to sell him (he's one of those whose work-rate means we'll miss him more when he's gone), but I do agree this summer is probably the last chance we have to sell him at the top end of his price range.

I saw a quote somewhere from Ollie that said he's disappointed everytime he starts on the bench but that it's the manager's choice, so it doesn't sound like he's carrying a knock, he's just dropped down the pecking order. My worry there would be that we can't keep Rashford, and Watkins isn't happy and asks for a move.

I suppose we've got Malen and potentially Asensio, which still probably leaves us better off than when it was just Watkins.

We'll sell Ollie this summer. And it would be the right thing to do, too.

Not if it's for a pittance, like when we sold Luiz, it won't be.

Yep. I reckon Arsenal is a good landing spot. Get £60m or so. Bring in Jonathan David on a free or Delap for £30m. Find a way to keep Rashford and Asensio. We don’t need to change too much. Getting rid permanently the likes of Dendoncker, Coutinho, Buendia etc would help too.

There was a story the other day saying Man U were interested in Delap but he's said he'd only go there if they win the Europa and get CL for next season. He wasn't European football. Man U fans were livid at an Ipswich player demanding European football. I found it hilarious that it (hopefully) rules them out.

Linked with Liverpool on BBC gossip page this morning, so almost certainly bollocks. But I agree the stars seem to be aligning for Ollie to leave this summer.

I just really hope he beats Gabby's record before he leaves. Not much chance of anyone else getting close to it any time soon.

They'd have to let him go for that price, but if more than one club was interested they could still get more, right?

Why would any club bid more than they had to? I'd imagine he's going to be a very rich lad.
