Getting a defence behind him, 2 wingers at the side of him, and striker in front of him; might help 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on 20k wages a week in league with 1 year left .. cold hearted side of me says cash in and reinvest in 2 or 3 players. We've had a good run with him in the team and unfortunately we have failed. Talisman / great player in 50% of the games.. Unfortunately it's time for a change. But he will go with our best wishes if people like marmite that’s cos they have bad taste not cos it tastes nice. No other player in the league puts that ball through to Johnson with that weight and precision. Lose Bannan and it’s a minimum 3 year rebuild. He has carried us this year - we look clueless when he is not on the pitch. It is for the rest of the team to up their standards (and effort and work rate) to his - then we might get somewhere 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Bannan says he’s not going anywhere until we’re back in the PL In that case expect him sat in his rocking chair in front of the kop in the year 2067 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because when he does go people will realise that there's very little quality left. And that's my whole point. Chan needs to build a team of quality players around him, not let him go. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katie melua Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 He'll more than likely retire than leave Hillsborough. Think he's got another year with us and I'd be amazed if he goes to another club after that season is up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1212 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 You think getting shut of our and the leagues best player is a blessing? Do you not want promotion? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catdog1121 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Bannan is an amazing player, especially in league one... He is a true servant, he could have gone this season and played in the championship, he probably could have earnt more money doing so... But he stayed because he is loyal.. Even if we wanted to cash in on him then he is 32, who is going to pay much for a 32 year old? We do have an issue that we have relied heavily this season on ageing players, frankly they have been our top performers, Hopefully we will have some money to spend this season.. Last time we were in league one we didnt have DC's money, we have been hampered this season by what went on in the past but we should have the financial might to produce a strong team next season... Sunderland imo should go up, we gave as good as we got and there was little between the teams... We need to rebuild, lets hope Moore can have another season of picking out some gems.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reasonable fee and wages saved. I'd personally keep him but I can understand the sentiment. Other teams supposedly interested. If serious show us the money.. If it’s big bucks take it and start the rebuild. If not keep him. That’s what running a club in the lower leagues is all about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wonky Owl Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 It pains me to say this but i think Wednesday need to let Bannan go. Sell him and use the 20m to rebuild the team for an automatic promotion charge next season. Get Dyche in an all as More isn't good enough for a MASSIVE club like you guys. From a Manchester City fan.

elyowl1 Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Quite frankly i think he will stay i cant see him swapping us for a mid to lower Championship team however if for example Luton get promoted and come in for him then he might go, I cant see him turning down the chance of finishing his career in the Premier League with a pay rise.

Do you geniunely think anyone’s going to pay big bucks for a 32 year old league 1 player? Bannan can stay at Wednesday as long as he wants for me but there were times in the two legs where I thought he struggled to keep up to the pace of the younger Sunderland lads. The pass to Johnson for the goal was absolute class but he didn’t do a lot else over the two games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Objectively he might as well stay. He plays every game with us in front of 20,000+ and is the club captain, universally loved. Why trade that for a year playing for Blackburn Rovers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Unless it's an offer we can't refuse I can't see him leaving. I would be very surprised if he tried to force a move to become a bit part player in the bottom half of the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
