I think the answer is keep them, but when they get to 2 years left on contact sell.
For example we never should have sold Walker with 4 years left on his contract.
But Eriksen has proved we should have sold high a year and a half ago.
Problem with Eriksen is though he may have always had the idea he was going to see out his contract and you can’t make players leave.
With two years left on his deal if someone like Real had come in we might have sold, but then Levy would be getting flack for not supporting Poch, not being ambitious etc, so he can’t win at time’s.
At least now if we end up selling someone with two years left and not looking like signing we can reflect back upon how Eriksen situation has panned out.
