Redslo Posted 16 April, 2015 Share Posted 16 April, 2015 I get your point, but if we did not rehabilitate him, he would be worth nowt. Morally, I would suggest that he should stay, even if just for a season. If he got injured playing darts in a bar or something, I would agree with you. But he got injured playing for us. The moral obligation runs from Southampton FC to him not the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a nice story for both parties if he signs a new one, plays another season, goes for a fortune. smiles all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morally, I would suggest that he should stay, even if just for a season. I think it has been established beyond reasonable doubt that morality has no place in modern football. For what little my opinion is worth, I'd like to think jrod might wish to continue his career with the club that paid his wages for a year while he was out injured and got him fit again. But I'm not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Uwe Posted 17 April, 2015 Share Posted 17 April, 2015 I personally think he'll be here next year. Not sure why but that's how I feel. Still think the severity of his injury has been underplayed in terms of a new club buying him. I cannot see any top Premier League club buying him unless (a) he becomes available at a ridiculously cheap price or (b) he proves his fitness again. Time will tell!

Saint86 Posted 17 April, 2015 Share Posted 17 April, 2015 Considering Koeman used the phrase "we're not sure when or IF(!!!) he'll be back" in his press conference yesterday it is clear his injury troubles could very well not be behind him.

Forums nested within forums, hundreds of obsolete fan group sticky threads to wade through on the home page, surprised anybody bothers. The forum I quite like the look of is (dare I say it) the fighting cock, simple to read layout, and I like the custom smilies. Shame about the posters and content though!

doggface Posted 22 April, 2015 Share Posted 22 April, 2015 His silence is so deafening that I doubt he wants to stay. His agents have clearly been busy planting stories in the press. He has always seemed quite a sensitive player mentally IMO and I'm not sure at this stage in his career a move to a big club would be in his best interests. Could ruin him (if not already ruined). I think that it is best for his career that he signs a new deal and sticks around for at least 1 season, there is no way that we can let him run out his contract.

S-Clarke Posted 22 April, 2015 Share Posted 22 April, 2015 If he pushes for a move this summer, he has been incredibly badly advised. He'd be ruined as a player, another Rodwell or Sinclair in the making. - although sinclair seems to be making an attempt to get back on track after 3 years of zilch. Also his reputation would be in tatters - let the club get you fit for a year, rake home the money, and never play for them again as you want to leave after all their help.

If he was a decent human being, he would sign a 2 year extension and stay for the next season. After getting paid mental money for doing nothing for over a year A mega rich Man City needing to buy home based players for domestic and European registration due to only having 2 left in the summer (Joe Hart and Richard Wright) Richards, Sinclair, Lampard won't be there next season and Milner might not be there next season I'll assume they'll renew Wright's contract for being an all important home grown player as well as 3rd choice goal keeper that never plays Funny thing is if he does go to City he'll be getting paid even more money to do nothing for even more years My mate even suggested they'll try and get Bertrand!

Of course, Saints being Saints we'll probably have to use the third sub before that, like when Le Tiss didn't get his Premier League goodbye.

Until he proves his fitness a club would be barking mad to buy him. I've seen stranger things. Man City in particular need to add English players to their squad, as they're short at the mo. I think they've resigned Richard Wright as 1051205350th choice keeper, just so they have an english name on their squad list. What with Milner not signing a new deal yet, Sinclair off in the summer, Richards out of contract, Dedrik Boyata too....they are in desperate need to add English names. Not that they'll play them, just so they'll be able to submit a squad list. It'll be exactly like Rodwell and Sinclair all over again. They were never signed by City to be anything other than squad fillers to ensure they met the requirements. As much as the FA PL think this is helping, along with FFP, it's just creating an even more ****ty situation. If Jay does go, then he is a complete and utter idiot who has just ****ed his career down the drain.
