I'd need to know what the injuries were, was it to one knee or both and the prognosis going forward, I don't have a clue about it to be honest.In the last 20 months he’s missed spells of 4 1/2 months, 1 month and 2 months with three knee injuries.
I hope I’m wrong, but I think that sounds like something that with the rigours of football at this level, isn’t going to magically just go away.
Do you? Genuine question?
I just think it’s a tough call but one that has to be made while he’s actually still movable.
I’d love to be wrong because a fit and firing Wanyama would be ahead of Sissoko as a Cm all day long for me,
I just think the omens aren’t looking great.

I thought his issue currently was a lack of match fitness as he's been available for a while but getting little game time and assumed outside of this he was ok - why would he be on the bench otherwise?
He's a big lump and so being football fit after a lay off may not be easy for him as I imagine he's susceptible to weight gain. He was good Tuesday and again today and IF he's over his injuries, a pre season sees him back to his best...he'd be like a new signing and save us a shitload of money, plus he's fully integrated into the Poch way. I guess only the club know the truth, I hope he can get back to his best though....if he can't then I agree with you....

Man utd after Eriksen?
Man United 'willing to treble' Eriksen's wages to £240,000-a-week
Manchester United are preparing an audacious raid on Tottenham for Christian Eriksen and they are planning to entice him to Old Trafford by tripling his wage.www.dailymail.co.uk
We won't sell to a rivalIf Eriksen has decided to leave, I just hope someone like Juve or Real come in with an offer over 60 mill early on in the summer and Levy takes it and hands it over to Poch to get in who he wants asap.
The danger will be if Levy delays Eriksen leaving until the last days of the window. No-one is going to pay any more so close to the close of the window, the temptation will be to simply walk away and wait for Eriksen to leave on a free in 2020. I can't remember the last time Levy has been in this situation where a top player has only 1 year left on his deal and he has to try and find the right fee from a buyer.

By the way I wouldnt be surprised to see Liverpool come in for both Alderweireld and Eriksen in the summer
Alderweireld alongside VVD and Eriksen supplying Mane, Salah and Firminho
We wont sell Eriksen to another PL team. Guaranteed.

Agree very much with this.I'd love this to be true, but even if Wanyama could get match fit and back to his old self, the issues he's had suggest he's probably going to be pretty injury prone for the remainder of his career now.
I'd love the old Wanyama back, I think he'd be a great foil for Winks for example, but my head says new are probably better cashing in and getting a couple of CM's. We'll just end up with another Dembele scenario.
Agree very much with this.
I was delighted to see Vic get 90 mins under his belt and to score, but the people claiming he looked even close to back to his best based on yesterdays performance must have been watching a different game to me.
I thought he still looked sluggish and immobile when running, and watching him trying to press players at times was just painful.
I know Poch loves the guy but I really hope he doesn't let sentiment get in the way this Summer because he needs to be sold while we can still get any kind of fee for him.
I really like Wanyama, but agree with this. I think our league fixtures are ‘easy’ enough for him to be very useful until the end of season. I hope it is just a lack of game time that is making him look sluggish when pressing and that improves.
His transfer value has dropped a fair bit this season. I'm comfortable with him going to Manchester.If Eriksen has decided to leave, I just hope someone like Juve or Real come in with an offer over 60 mill early on in the summer and Levy takes it and hands it over to Poch to get in who he wants asap.
