Then if nothing materiailzes then maybe let him go in a year or so with him being tied up us getting alot more money and he having his wish?

Just odd that he has changed his mind now.
I do think he had genuine concerns though. I don't buy the theory that he was just looking for a pay-rise. It'll all be forgotten once he starts scoring again anyway. He's a quality player, but he's no Jonjo Shelvey.
