He's not worth a 3-year 100k deal.... Bring in Seamus Coleman, he's only on a 25k and is atleast as good. Hell last seasons best right back, Zabaleta, is on a 70k.

A new contract was probably the last thing on Ramsey’s mind considering he just signed a new deal. We have a strange way of doing things. Just offer a new deal when the current deal needs extending. Why react to form and act so defensive? Are we afraid the vultures will start circling if he continues to play like a superstar? If we’re afraid his head will be turned by one of the super clubs if they offered him mega bucks, this recent deal won’t make a difference. He’ll simply ask for a competitive pay rise of he’s that sort of player.
It's not only the fact that he is the best RB in the league, it is also the fact that he is a senior member of the squad. I believe along with Theo, he has been around the longest. You cannot just replace that by buying some promising player.
We have been guilty of letting go off seniors too easily and I think we have felt the repercussions of that in the last few years.

Apologies if i've posted in the wrong place. It's been a good game so far.
Agree. One of the reasons for our improvement this year, IMO, is keeping together the core of our best players. As good a signing as Ozil has been, and he has given us a boost despite his patchy form, it's not enough to explain this level of improvement. Have to keep that going next year and, with the right signings, build on it. Sagna is a beast, must keep him if at all possible.
Sagna wants just under £22mill over 3 years. It should go without saying that's a ludicrous demand. He's 31 years old, all we'll get for the money is a player increasingly injury prone and increasingly in decline. Spend £22mill bringing a decent, younger RB in and we'll get a much better return over a longer period. Where has loyalty got us with the players so far? Diaby on the one hand, Judas Van Persie, homesick Fabregas on the other.
Obviously, get rid.
