People are reading into what was said wayyy too much
Whats he going to say???? "We are going to get rid of him soon, just waiting for buyers"
IMO we view him as disposable, if we get a good offer he is gone, if not then we arnt gonna accept a low ball offer for him and he stays, what would he gain by saying we want to get rid of him?, whether he stays or goes this season depends on if we get a good offer for him or not, i dont think he is unsellable anymore but we arnt giving him away. U just gotta think fellas, its not that difficult
