When you see what he can do when he wants it he is one of the best attackers in this league. Waste of a talent really... he should have played at the top level. That goal tonight has probably put a million or two on his value. So do we sell in the summer if a decent bid comes in or keep hold and risk losing him for nothing next summer? I think Bruce's comments about working him very hard to get fit, show that it's not a case of attitude but fitness as to why he's been so under par even when playing this season. Tonight he looked fully fit and was absolutely outstanding even the worldy goal aside. Great work rate, dribbling, and some fantastic passes to Fletch- would've scored 2 if not for a blinder save from Krul. Showed he's still more than got it in him, hopefully we see it consistently through the last few games now. Him and Fletch on that form would make a dynamic pairing next season.

If he shows consistent form for the last few games and no fitness worries, and is a big part of Bruce's plans then I wouldn't be against it. Still think we may see how things go until Jan before making a decision though, which I'd agree with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't keep Sam, he's a 100% committed player no two ways about it , but personally he's never gonna give you more than 30 plus games a season , he's not getting any younger and I think he is a defensive midfielder , can't play him offensively hasn't got the legs or creativity for that.

Jim Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 He showed tonight what he's all about and what an important player he can still be for us. This season has been a disappointing one for him for several reasons but tonight's display must surely have given Bruce food for thought going forward.

S26 Owl Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Wouldnt be worth selling because of the fee we'd get for him. Realistically hes probably worth 5/6 but we'd only get 3 due to injuries/form/reputation/off field prombles/age. For a player who on his day can play like he has today, 3 mil just isnt enough to get rid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a tough one... keep him until January and we’ll probably lose him for nothing unless we offer a new deal this summer. But when fully fit and his head is right he’s as good as anyone in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it! You do realise players like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Wayne Rooney went for free transfers? I don’t think anyone on here has questioned his ability... just the fact he’s 29, has missed a lot of football and is out of contract next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresh Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Did himself no harm tonight with a brilliant display, scoring a worldly, setting up a few chances and could have had a hattrick with some great shots on goal. Not a bad idea putting in a great display against a team almost certain to be promoted. Perhaps Norwich may put in a bid if they do get promoted.

Yeah I agree , he was dire before hobbling off (again) . He’s in contract , and no sane team would offer him a deal , so he will stay . Keep him in and around the team , as he’s played well recently , but I agree we need the position filling . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been way below average for the past 2 seasons Haven't most of them.? Been mismanaged for the last two seasons by Carlos and Dross, then with injuries suspension and court cases, is it any wonder? Now we've got a proper manager we'll see the best of him again. wakey wakey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Bruce have his head turned by the "Goal" and performance at norwich?...I seriously doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
