My dad always used to admire the way the Liverpool side of the 70’s and 80’s had the knack of getting rid of even a top player just as they were about to go over the hill.

There’s an art to knowing when to let a player go, I like Wallace as a bloke and as an influence but would we really miss him on a match day, I think not.

If we saw his name in the team it’d be because the player most of us wanted in that position couldn’t play that day, that in itself is enough to warrant a healthy sale and a nice profit made on an ageing player who’s losing his ability to influence a game.
I think it would be more like £1m transfer fee. Even so, that would be great business I think.
