What do you guys think?


Should we sell Gattuso? Should we try to work with him and see if we can find a solution? If we can't find a common solution do you think Leo should change his ways to include gattuso?

Neither of these are relevant if he's injured for a good portion of the season and doesn't have much left in the tank.

yeah but its not just selling a player. Were not selling a mercenary here. Were selling a club icon. Its like selling Kaka; selling gattuso is just not right, especially not over something silly like playing time, which can be given easily.

Whether I agreed or not, Kaka was regarded as our most important player and our best one, who the team didn't function in the absence of. Gattuso's absence, however, clearly hasn't affected us, especially in the last 2 or 3 months since it's started to click.

You can't easily give playing time either - if your first 11 is doing the business, how do you accommodate one player's ego just because he demands to play? You risk upsetting the balance you've painstaking created.

Lastly, there's no 'not right' about it - the guy is on vast wages - earns more a week than most of us in 3 years. To come out and let his opinion of his importance overide the health of the team is in no way worthy of being condoned.

And remember I have a particular affinity with Gattuso, having met him many years ago in his Rangers days, who I support as you all know, and then he's gone to my other club.

So my opinion is despite my bias towards him.
