hes the best keeper we have had ever i think ? and i say that after only half a season !! hes worth giving a contract for the next 5 years and if we have to sell half the team then so be it
lose him and weve got knowbody
Westwood was lost, hence we got him for free.
There are now two choices (because his stock has gone up & he won't sign another contract with us):
1) Let him go for free in 18 months time
2) Sell him in January or July for £4m
Given those choices, we would be negligent not to sell him.
Clubs cash in on our players (Forest claim to have turned away interest in Antonio at £5m) so now it's our turn to cash in on a player. It will give us a bigger wage budget which will allow us to compete better for next summer's players.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
