Must say i would be amazed if the links with Chelsea or City are true given how serious his injury is. Any operation on a hamstring injury is bad news , surprised if we see him before October and there is always the chance that it will leave a weakness in the muscle,cannot believe either club would take that chance

I wonder if this has been on the cards for a while and might be why Jesrun is getting game time with the first team and not loaned out so far.

I like him as a player, but I haven't detected much in the way of 'personality' in him.

Usually we are all negative because our players aren't good enough for other clubs to be interested in them. Now we are all unhappy because a number of our players ARE good enough for other clubs to be interested in them.

For a club of our size and status, this is how it will always be, I'm afraid. Any half-decent player we develop will be coveted by those with more money than we have, and who seem to be allowed to maintain squads big enough to run their own league. The challenge for us, therefore, is to have replacements lined up, either through the market or through the junior ranks. Unfortunately I fear that we have no such contingencies.

I always thought he looked like a Man City player in the making and he is basically a direct replacement for Mahrez with similar attributes. If he went there I wouldn't begrudge him. Chelsea is still a bit of an unknown quantity with a stockpile of wingers and no European football. He could easily get lost in the pile.

If there's no clause we have to dig in as we can't afford to lose Zaha and Olise in the same window. He seems like a young man who is sensible and intelligent enough to know he can wait another year. He doesn't strike me as someone who would throw his toys out the pram if we refused to sell. If there's a release clause the best we can do is offer him a better deal, which may be what happens.

35 million looks a bit on the low side. We took a gamble on a Championship player and it’s worked out well, let’s not sell ourselves short. We need to test how keen Chelsea are, bit weird they released him when he was 14 years old, funny old game!
