Gradel - should we sell or keep ?

[bald reynard]

With Leeds (almost) declaring an interest to buy Maxie on a permanent deal in January, do people think we should sell him ?

I, for one, don't and also think he should be currently playing for us (we desperately need width on the right, from a naturally right sided player). He's a quality player with loads of potential (admittedly, mostly yet unfulfilled), I'd hate some other club to benefit (and especially Leeds !). I also doubt we'd get that much money for him anyway.

Thracian time.

[haraven]

Keep. And loan out if he is not good enough..

[lou]

Dont think Leeds will offer anything decent for him so Id rather keep him

[Babylon]

Great... another max gradel thread.

[Guest Basildon Fox]

I decide that I could't decide so chose all three.

[hairy]

How much are we talking for Max/

[Edmund]

Didn't we have this exact same thread (with poll) a week or two back

[Babylon]

Stringer on twitter "am I the only one thinking a Beckford/Gradel + cash swap deal could be on the cards.

[Heart-Shaped Fox]

still think he can do well for us, but the experience he is getting at Leeds is good for him at the moment.

[NewquayFox]

Agree with Babylon, swap him for Beckford and have some cash of Leeds too. ;0)

Beckford's a **** - no thanks

[JimmyK]

I cannot see Beckford ever ending up here.

That is exactly what I was thinking last night. Doubt it'd happen but it would be brilliant.

[lavrentis]

He'd only ever come if we actually got promoted as Leeds look a cert for promotion.

[Vlad The Impaler]

I'd get him back here and on the bench. He's only an impact player at best in my eyes though, would prefer to have N'Guessan, Adams, Dyer or Gallagher on the wings tbh.

Sell.

[Bert]

Loan him out until the end of the season. Let him win League One again, mature even more as a player and then come back to us.

[Asha]

As someone who was pretty much Gradel obsessed a couple of months back....now, I really couldn't give a fuck. Sell him, whatever.

Overrated.

That was my first thought, Bert, but then I just kinda asked myself if I thought, if he is now or will ever be, a fantastic Championship player... and I just feel that while a big club with money want him in League 1, I'd sell him whilst he's in demand. He's a solid League 1 player - I admit though it is tempting to keep him but I'm just not sure to what end.

[Fatbloke]

definately would keep Max with us, he COULD become a very good player, as to play, sub or loan out, up to Nigel (thank god) would hate to make such decisions.

[Guest]

If we're still up around top 6 by Jan I wonder whether Nige would be tempted to sell in order to part finance any new players that may help us immediately in getting promoted?

Ideally I'd like to keep him and loan him out again, but I trust Nige to make the right decision

[willchafer]

my initial reaction was sell him, but have we really seen him play in the championship yet? we should call him back...and piss off leeds. where we can see what he is like then make decision.

lol.

So a couple of months back, when he wasn't playing, you thought he was brilliant but now he's gone off and proved himself at a table-topping side you think he's overrated?

Some people are too ilogical to be allowed to have opinions.

[Guest]

We could bring him back just to force Leeds to make a decent offer.
