Club owes him better than that given his current situation
Ok, keep Jamie Allen then to save hurting his feelings and ship out Torp. Im pretty sure Allen has a lot more to offer the PL than Torp could anyway!
Get real! Whilst his situation is a bit shitty at present, for how long do we go? Keep him on indefinitely? If thats the case, at some point in every players life somebody they know died, so do we just keep them all? We'll amass the biggest squad ever known in footballing history, all because Clive Platts cat died in 2001 so we cant get rid!
Allen has been a great servant for the club, and i genuinely like the bloke. I think hes been very underused at times and has been very underrated, but we really do need to move on to bigger and better things. At only 30 hes got another good 3 or 4 seasons in him. If he was 3 or 4 years older id suggest putting him through his badges and get him on the coaching team. Always been the highest professional when training according to Frank Lampard. Still one of the hardest trainers in the squad, even though he knows hes more likely than not starting on the bench again!
