Hands off. He is our second best player behind Baines and is only 24 years old. We bought him in the region of £16m-20m so i can only see us selling for somewhere between £30m-35m as he has just signed a 5 year contract and has between outstanding for the last 24 months,. He is an brilliant defensive midfield player with outstanding ball control and breaks up play extremely well, he is in the top band of DM in the premier league for me (along with Tiote and song). If you listen to Liverpool fans or a lot of the media then he is just a yard dog like most of our players apparently are but of course that is a load of pish. Also for the last two games(Manchester United and Fulham) he has been deployed behind the striker in our 4-2-3-1 formation where has been brilliant and moved our play higher up the field and resulted in us scoring 4 goals in each of those games and him scoring in each game as well. However he has played in that role before and has looked dire though his success there could be down to the fact we have a proper striker in Jelavic there now and two creative outlets in Pienaar and Osman next to him, He also plays ACM for Belgium. It would be a disaster to let him go.
