Jesus fucking christ, this thread is embarrassing.
I can't believe that there are those that actually think that our captain, the man who has given everything on the pitch for this club and devoted his whole career to it, should call it quits and look to play his football elsewhere. It shouldn't even be an issue, he should be offered the new contract immediately, as in right now. I'm fairly upset that it hasn't happened yet. The man is a fucking legend and yet you still have some on here that will slag him off and take slight digs at him.
I'm hoping that he does indeed want to stay and know he will if offered the new contract. But then again, it's no wonder why he doesn't have that smile on him anymore, we've gone out and replaced one of the best players in the world with 100 million worth of players that as of yet look nowhere good enough for the level we want to be at and he knows it. We took one massive step forward last season, and at the moment it looks as though we've backtracked yet again. Rinse and repeat, and he must be tired of it.
