He was also an attacking player, where it can be a good thing to mix it up.An excellent point, but VdV also played more than 39% of league games since being at Spurs.
In Sandro's position I would personally prefer conistency and reliability.

Twice in one post (and once quoted here) you implicitly blame either TFC or the mods for not solving the Gibbs problem, thereby leaving you with no other course of action.I will not apologize for defending myself against someone who violates the very purpose of a forum yet has been free of repercussion from it, nor do I accept the responsibility for what has subsequently been allowed to continue here. If you truly want this to end, you'll have to accurately identify the real problem, and address it.

Gibbs won't get banned from here, and I doubt he'll be binned often. That's how the board works, and everyone knows that and implicitly agrees to it by participating here.
Defend yourself all you want, but expecting gibbs to suffer "repercussions" coming from a source other than your turn of phrase is a losing proposition. You seem to suggest that the best way to end your rowing is by having Gibbs be banned. Since that's a non-starter, a plan b might be in order.
I don't think any player, especially a first-teamer, would be sold over his head. What a sale this early may tell us is the sheer gravity with which the physio staff regard his injury.
Unless he sees some major improvement in his recovery and rehab, I find it difficult to expect a player who made it to 90 minutes all of four times in the league last season (yes I understand Tim didn't play him, but four times?) will be capable of sustaining the high tempo, high press demanded of Poch's system. I adore this player's personality, passion, and loyalty, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's sold this summer in lieu of one of Poch's CDM's from Saints.
All fair points, so I will change my direction: If Sandro is sold I'll kick four toddlers in the face.
internet: SERIOUS BUSINESS OR WHATthe bickering in this thread is laughable. get a grip, people.

Oh look. The system the system.
His injury was his CALF muscle. It's not like it was a re occurrence of his knee.
He looked like he was shot out of a cannon in the last game. He didn't look like he was struggling at all. In fact we struggled when he was taken off and the kids were put on.
Who's that other player you wanted moved on because of wages? He was that Ade bloke who put 2 past Southampton DM's in December right? Why do you keep fapping over the saints players and his system? He's going to adjust it to OUR players.
I hope Liverpool does sign Lallana and all of the other Saints players that over performed. Could be a one season wonder. Just like Liverpools season could have been.
I'm getting awfully tired of y'alls incessant penis fencing. The two of you remind me of flatworms.Why do you keep fapping to the idea of unnecessary conflict?

What have I told you about stealing others putdowns?
I just wonder if you listen to yourself? Thinking he will look to his old team for a dm to replace.
Sandro.
You won't talk about it, because in retrospect what you said was fucking stupid.
Gibbs, it's Saturday night. Just go drink a cold beer n chill the fuck out.
I suppose it's best to clam up after claiming he needs to rehab his injuries etc even though one of the headlines of the season was sandro telling you he is fit but not selected.
That bit is not true at all. In fact Bentaleb was 10 times the player than Sandro last season. All sandro did last season was incessant fouling when theres no chance of winning the ball and when in possession took ages to decide that he wants to pass the ball sideways.He looked like he was shot out of a cannon in the last game.

Is every player going to be "the next big..." under Potch? ochlol:This is true.
Most of us pointed out the short-comings of Bentaleb and anticipated the resurgence of Sandro feverishly.
When Sandro returned, he was like a pantomime character, getting yellow cards within 10 mins and giving away stupid fouls, whilst providing Townsend-esq shots on goal.
Maybe Sandro wanted to screw with Tim, who knows, but Bentaleb was by far a superior player.
If Bentaleb gets a little confidence, I think Poch's coaching might make him into the next big player for us.
