Still rattles me he dared to take the 9 shirt. Feels like that was allowed to spite Vardy. 
Birmingham retired Bellinghams shirt and he’d achieved nothing with / for them 

I would be surprised if any team retired the number 9 shirt, Ayew was number 9 at palace and he’s number 9 for his country so why wouldn’t he ask for it if it is available?

Can’t see him leaving he’ll get another year. Overall he’s ok coming off the bench and he’s scored some important goals for us. We could do better though but don’t have the money to replace 7/8 players.

It doesn’t matter whether Ayew starts or comes on, he plays the same way.  It feels like being a striker in the box is an afterthought for him. His instincts is to hog the ball or cheat.  Not great if you are starting the game or chasing.  We are chasing more times than leading so his often repeated “skill set” is of little use. 
 

A poor tactical choice from Marti is keeping Ayew on all game and watching him become even lazier because he’s battered. 
 

I can’t wait till we see the back of him.  He causes problems all over the pitch.  He would rather see an attack break down than pass to a player or shoot when he has a chance. His two goals of late have came from him hanging in the box and not being involved in the build up.

Surely we won't extend his deal?! He's no doubt on big wages and he's only going to get worse, not better. But then this is Leicester City in 2026 so most probably you are right and I am wrong!

 Wasn't  one of reasons young players were not getting game time is that more experienced  players like Ayew have to be in team? Time to move and for MF (or whoever) to show confidence in far younger players in squads. Ayew is not getting any better and time to move on/ Wasn't he only signed because he had PL experience - that will not be needed for next season!

I can't think of a single reason why we'd ext...... what's that? Have I seen his agent? No I hadn't looked......

Because he isn’t fit to grace it. Vardy was a once in a lifetime player for us so I think it would have been appropriate

Looking ahead to next season I wouldn’t mind Ayew being here but I wouldn’t want him as our starting striker. We definitely need to get a proper goalscorer in the door with Ayew being a decent option, either out wide or off the bench.

It's just a shirt number. Retiring the number 9 shirt would be effectively announcing to the world that we want to live in the past rather than look to the future. We'll never have another number 9 like Vardy, but that doesn't mean we should never have another number 9.

He’s not a striker but what actually is he? He’s alright but will always just be alright. Doesn’t deserve some of the stick he’s got since being here though, been way too harsh at times.

It really cannot happen.
