What's the use of a world class keeper if his own players are helping the other side?
Anyone got any stats for Jones' goals and assists scored at the wrong end? Club and Country.
An expensive liability.

In his united career, he has scored 5 for us and 4 own goals.
He has been unavailable for more matches than he has been available for since he signed.
The next Duncan Edwards my arse, more like the next Dunkin' Donut.

We'll struggle to get a fee for him. Had high hopes when he signed but its not worked out. We need to be clearing players like him out not offering new deals. i'd rather promote someone like Ro-Shaun Williams to the first team for the second half of the season.

Im agree mort.
Jones darmian rojo valencia offer nothing of any value to the squad. They don't even offer decent competition to the starters. None of them are even 2nd choice when everybody is fit.
I just think its pointless having them there.
Between those 4 alone its probably close to 20m a year in wages.
Id rather promote younger players than have the likes of these guys.

Ken,

I agree, but would Jose be bold enough to do that.

Ken
Belated thanks for satisfying my curiosity.
Cheers.

I think Jose doesn't want those players and if you offered him the choice of keeping them as squad fillers or getting rid and putting the fees and wages towards new signings then they'd be going. Problem is funding buyers to the inflated wages we pay.

I honestly don't know what Darmian's done to be frozen out. He's never brilliant, and his crossing is erratic, but I can't remember too many below average games either. You don't get into an Italian defence that easily. Good, solid full-back in my opinion, and worthy of being a squad player.

Depends on what wages he's on. Also that he's not pushed for a move speaks volumes to me.

Mort, do you mean he's acting professionally by not rocking the boat, or is it he's just happy to pick up his wages? I don't know either way obviously. I'm sure there was talk of him going back to Italy a few times, but nothing obviously came from it. I think his positional versatility is useful as a squad player.

I would keep Jones, he could become a great sweeper. Just give the lad a broom.

That's it though we just don't know. Personally I'd be pushing for a move home especially if I knew I wasn't really wanted. I'd want to be playing every week an pushing for the national team not sat on the bench at best most weeks. But that's me. Its a short career and i'd put minutes over money. But we don't know.
