What he is doing is proving a valuable lesson to our other youngsters. He may well turn out to be brilliant but he has made it a hell of a lot more difficult by trying to force a move and wanting more money. He is now not playing football at a time when he should be developing the most, not the smartest thing to do! Playing football, working hard and a want to improve is what builds a great footballer. His and his agents attitute will only do him harm in the long run...but as I said before, we should get rid, get some cash, free up a wage and get a hungry young player in to replace him. We will not miss him because he has not given anything to united to miss.

Spot on.

He has been very badly advised. Most young players are happy to make it through the ranks and try to better themselves , and lots do and usually get a good move.

In this case though , he hasn't proved himself at ANY level yet, and as much as great offers from bigger clubs may come in , he won't be anywhere near the level required to slip in to any of those teams. If some of the "interest" is genuine he will be a fish out of water playing against some of his opponents.

Even LS knew he wasn't ready for a huge move and made a great decision to further his career at Tannadice for a season (or two) obviously the 20 grand a week we pay him did help

Let the boy go, take whatever we get for all the care and attention we gave him ,and good riddance to be honest.

We are a "selling team" we know that from many bad situations in the past, but, at least give a wee bit back before you f uck off to oblivion. And.... I really hope he does.

Agreed , let’s get rid.

You’d have thought he’d have seen what happened to Harry Soutter, Ali Coote, even Ryan Gauld, and of course, especially Scott Allan and have come to a more sensible decision like the likes of Johnny Russell, Stuart Armstrong and back in the day, Christian Dailly did. Of those, it’s pretty obvious which United ‘graduates’ have gone on to more lucrative careers. Why can’t the likes of Banks see this? It’s unbelievable stupidity.

In a word GREED him his agent and most other people in his life

You need to wonder if his behaviour will come back to haunt him with future employers, it doesnt look good does it? Hardly painting a good picture of himself behaving like this and if i were a manager/chairman of a club and was linked with him i'd be looking into attitude/greed/agent etc

Way of the world that the agent wants a deal. What is counter productive is not playing football

Player only gets a short career

When he moves if he had been playing well for United then he could have got more money
