The wife has just got back from the match and afterwards stayed around to get some autographs, She spoke to Petrov and asked him are you staying next season and he said "what for so I can sit on the bench, no". Says he was a right miserable git.
 
Not surprised. At his age he will want first team football and we can't guarantee him that. Who knows if he'll ever be the same after his injury too.
 
Fair enough. Let him go.

Just means we'll have to sign a left winger. Please don't bother with Stuart Downing Hughes for Gods sake!

Wouldn't be surprised if this was true. Someone said him and Dunne were going to Spurs. I can't remember what else the post said though. It was on the transfer forum a while back if anyone can be arsed to find it. Might mean there's something in it.
 
A bit unfair, I know, but he has been very poor after coming back from injury. Difficult to tell at this moment if his legs are gone. Maybe a move back to sunny Spain is the best for all parts. Shame, I was so looking forward to his return.

Seriously Its not a wind up. There were other people around collecting autographs when she asked him and they heard his reply and they all got on their phones telling their mates.
She also said Given and Veiss spent a long time signing autographs for everyone and very friendly.
 
As good as he was last season I just don't think he would fit into the shape of how we play now ! From a different angle, if he wants to go then he can fook right off !!
 
Last year he thought he was billy big ones, now there are better players in and around the squad, at training he acts like a slapped arse kid.

It would be a shame to see him go, but there are plenty who in the past have done well, we have become emotionally involved with and it will be a shame to see them go but that's what we are about now, thesquad has to improve and Hughes has his sights on his kind of players.

Sign Elia to replace him if true.
Great player but - I think Weiss could give us options on either wing to cover Robinho or SWP and would retain the balance of Academy players coming through !! As much as we need to strengthen why go out and spend a fortune if we have one of our own coming up through the ranks ?
