I really like Ox, I think he's a good player, and I think he's good for morale aswell. But his injury record is terrible, and he's also 27 so his resale value will rapidly decrease after this year.
We have so much cover in midfield I'd be tempted to let him go and try and invest the money.
Hate to say it as well but that injury he picked up against Roma was on the 24th April 2018, that’s two and a half years ago now and he hasn’t looked the same player since, after that length of time you have to start wondering if he ever will be the same player again (which in all fairness was absolutely phenomenal, at the time of his injury he looked the best player at the club).
It’s a terrible shame because not only did it look like he was just about to fulfill that early promise that he showed at Arsenal and develop into the elite player he always threatened to be but he was great in front of the camera’s as well, he was pretty much the perfect professional footballer i.e great on the pitch and great off it but then fate stuck it’s fvcking oar in and dealt him a sickening double ligament injury.
If Wolves come in for him in a big way the club will have a decision to make and it’s one that I wouldn’t want to make personally because he’s such a great lad and was so unlucky.
