There are so many ways this can play out
OR leaves permanently, hopefully with a buy back (learn from Palmer mistake) but the old guard stay
OR leaves but so do Kova and Gundo but then our midfield is left light.
OR stays but the old guard leaves
OR is in the same situation as Rico tho why isn’t Rico leaving ? Why is he getting a contract ?
I’m more comfortable with Rico leaving than OR, one is 6’3, long legs, can get a goal, left footed, strong and got a burst of pace the other is good in tight spaces but gets easily bullied and hardly gets any g/a.
I just doesn’t make sense why young hungry players leave and players who have more experience but less ability stay.
Since we’ve had ample evidence of who Pep will play then i’d rather see OR, Echeverri, Reis, Khusonov, even Bobb go elsewhere and gets the game time they deserve instead of rotting on the bench while Pep’s favourites play ahead of them.
