Lots of varied emotions over Trent leaving, so I have a question for the group.
Should we let Trent -
A) leave for Madrid before the Club World Cup for free as a gift to him for his 20 years service to the LFC?
B) leave for Madrid before the Club World Cup as long as they pay the money LFC ask for?
C) stay at LFC until his contract runs out?
Your reasoning for your answer would be interesting.

If Madrid pay up, let him go. He's off regardless so take the cash imo. What is the benefit of us keeping him for a few extra days?

B, it's business and it's clear now it would be in the best interests for everyone if this happens.

B. It’s business after all, that’s how all those involved always talk about it, why would you let him go as a gift? Not for me, if they pay us a fee I’d snap their hand off. Alone no pint cutting your nose off to spite your face if there’s a chance of recouping something at all.

Send him to madrid but make him see out his contract and stay away from the people that love the city.

There is obviously only one answer B.

D) . Not bothered because we’re Champions.

B. But Madrid can't take liberties with the fee. They'll be making millions from the tournament and the speculated 800k is a mockery.

We'll be paying his salary from end of season till 30 June while he's on holiday which is probably close to £1m, I'd take whatever RM offer (rumour is it's 1m) plus getting him off the wage bill, maybe the guts of 2m in the clubs pocket.

Pay up 2% it’s pittance but we have no choice.

let him go and potentially help them win $100m prize?
yeah, nah.

B) for me also, draws a line under it then for good one way or the other!
Reason= We never really celebrated our first ever winning of the Premier League because of Covid Lockdown, drawing a line under it for good, will allow us all to truly celebrate Arne's magnificent first title win, rather than be overshadowed by the events of the past week continually, and all move on to hopefully more successful trophy winning seasons, our future success is more important than our past history now.

Make him stay til contract up. Why would you want to help RM.

Put him on a easyjet flight pronto.

B) the price is £50 million
Or he stays.

B. Take what you can and get him gone.
