We bought him to sell him, if he get's us to the prem he's done his job and he can be replaced . then if we do get there we will probably be relegated anyway, so does it matter?

We have stupidly allowed him to become a free agent in June. Parker has brought him on in leaps and bounds this season, so much so he is now in the England under-21's. So I must say, "Yes, it does matter".

Stupid in hindsight but I didn't notice many pushing for CJ's contract to be renewed prior to Parker involving him in games this season.

Either way AD we should have sorted out a contract extension at Christmas. Bad, bad business not too IMHO.

The Club will have been looking to offer a New contract well before Christmas I'm sure of that.
But these things are never straight forward to sort out.
I'm confident he'll be here next season.

Pace has publicly stated our finances depend on player trading. Someone in an office deep inside Turf Moor needs to get his or her $hit together IMHO.

The Tresor fiasco is a constant reminder we are not doing our job properly.

Well that's nothing New , our finances have always depended on "player trading" and likely always will.
So what should have happened regarding Tresor?
To be honest I was very happy when we signed him , sounded like he was going to be good signing , he disapointed in his few games last season but we'd already agreed an obligation to sign him otherwise I don't believe we would have.
Body language suggests he doesn't want to be here and something isn't right but I'm not going to make judgement with no facts on the situation and I don't think it's fair to point fingers.
It is a shame for us because I'm confident he could have been a massive player for us this season.

Something is not right when players down tools and refuse to play. The buck stops with Alan Pace and he needs to sort it one way or the other. One bad apple tends to contaminate the barrel. Get shut.

I can only think with Tresor he was promised he?d play and it just never happened for him with VK

Frustrating when there is a v good player in there but we never get to see it or the benefits.

I think we all know he?s not going to play for us unless the premiership beckons and he thinks he could ahop
Window himself if we were to go up.
