I don't get why our fans are so weird at times

"Can't believe he's moving to Sheffield united "

They're a bigger club in a league above

"He fucked us about "

Robins said gus has made his stance clear

Still there was also this clear nonsense about wanting to move back to Holland courtesy of GIMOC

Irreplaceable as just one player.
Two of the four goals we have conceded when he has gone off have been from around the area on the edge of the box where he buzzes around and picks off attacks and picks up loose balls. He wasn't there to prevent those, and those on the pitch couldn't do his job.....
We all know how good his range of passing is from that area too, and how he can drive attacks.

Again, His needs two very high level replacements, which will take up two names on the teamsheet, rather than the one he does, that allows us bodies in another area that may be "make do's" ( why we got away at times last year with him/howley/Eccles in the midfield and still finished 5th!)

Huge huge job to rebuild the midfield now, especially after Robins comments about how it doesn't function without His on Weds night.

Always trust robins. We had it fed that Hamer wanted to go back home for ages. Robins said no it’s for the money and a PL love and head turned. Robins never lets us fans down tbf

Gutted if, as looks likely, he goes. Amazing player but if price is correct, to squeeze £35m for two players in final years of contracts is great work. Last summer most would’ve happily sold the pair for 15m

The fact is we had to sell both. They gave their all whilst here but deserved to play at a higher level.

It was likely to happen so let’s get it done. It’s a good price. A special player who won’t be easily replaced. MR knew it was likely, from his comments recently it’s clearly not what he wants, but he will have targets in mind and I’m sure we’ll be getting things in motion quickly.

Like Vik and O’Hare he does the job of two or three. It’s all well and good spending £20m but if none of those you bring in do the same you’re going to run out of players in the XI to upgrade.

Genuinely can’t see how well get anything close even for £10m looking at what we’ve spent so far this window. And that’s without last minute just got a ton of cash inflation.

cool, as you are always wrong I'm no confident we'll get a great replacement for a bargain ;)

Yeah, I don't get how he's fucked us about...those feelings only come about because of rumours posted on here that obviously weren't true.

He didn't know Hamer was refusing to sign a new contract ? Are you sure
Yeah, that sorry is yet more Nixon bollocks. Robins will have known all along if he won't sign we'd have to sell.

He maybe shocked that Sheffield are the ones to pony up the 15m but he will have known if no contract then he needs to be sold
