There was talk of him being offered a new contract and nothing announced. If they can’t get him to sign a new one, I imagine we’ll sell him in the summer to avoid him leaving for free. I like him, hope he does extend his contract but I think he might have only ever seen us as a stepping stone. Not sure he’s shown enough to prove he is next level though. Key player imo. Be difficult to replace if we lost him. Can't understand why he wants out - ? Maybe he doesn't like what he's hearing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roonst83 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I think Gerrard will like Dougie. And if he's wanting to implement a possession and ball playing team then Luiz is someone who I expect Gerrard to want to utilise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame good player Haven’t seen one reliable source. My understanding is he is very happy at the club and very settled in the area.

Personally I think he will move on shortly. Settling doesn't seem a problem for him. Hope I'm wrong - but it wouldn't surprise me if he moved on.

Seriously ? - I would have thought the big Spanish clubs would offer him a decent salary. But I think he just wants to play at a higher level.

Spanish clubs are all broke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 (edited) I have a similar opinion of him (in the No6 role) to Redd Pepper....but hey ho. There will be a few ins and outs, under the new regime. Edited November 25, 2021 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
