Yep I agree but he is a bit too good for a back up and the club feel we could get some OK money for him. Has he even played this season yet? And because he is English, a bit well known in England and is still worth £5m. The club feel we could use those fund for better signings and who could blame them.

Probably waiting for someone to buy him if he got a good spell at Villa, maybe £5-£8m. Then use that money and some more to buy Shaw/Ricardo Rodriguez

So are Courtois? And we sell from a business and logic perspective, leaving out the sentiments. If he is gonna accept the bench role then we won't need to sell him, but he likely won't as he is still one of the best there is so why keep him if it means we are losing the young(already one of the best in the world) GK? If you have to choose, would you choose Cech over Courtois atm?

Or we recall him and pay Costa release clause by selling Mata and Cech.

I take it you don't want Rooney, Suarez, Ronaldo, Messi, Tevez, Balotelli, Van Persie as well because they are 'cunts'

There are life outside of BPL just to let everyone know. There are these Jackson Martinez, Guitan, Chicharito, Michu who no one heard of before they became big. Not everyone have to be a Falcao who just banged in 40 goals last season or a Hazard who was just crowned player of the season the year before their moves.
