Sell One/Keep One

Harry Palmr

I've put a pair up for each of the top six

You need decide which of the pair you sell and which you keep, then tell us all why there is multiple choice so you can pick players from sides other than your own.

Poll to follow it'll take a few minutes so be patient!

Its very simple - two important players for each of the top six, you vote to keep one and sell the other you could even stretch you brains by justifying your picks.

eg Sell Ozil and Keep Sanchez

Too Tough To Die

Chelsea - Costa SELL

The poll hurts my eyes, i can't read that. How is it going so far?

Why would fans want to sell their best players?

Its notional - you know a hypothetical. Christ, people round here can be such hard work.

Some interesting votes so maybe we'll get somewhere yet.

I'd sell them all and then buy them all back and make a massive profit.

Chelsea - Hazard SELL

My choices

Hazard > Costa
Henderson > Sterling
De Gea > Rooney
Kane > Lloris
Sanchez > Ozil

Hazard. Too important, nearly impossible to replace.
Henderson, future captain (it seems).
De Gea, see Hazard example.
Kane, See Hazard example & Levy might flog him in 2 or 3 years for mental money anyway.
Sanchez, more consistent than Ozil.

Harry Palmr

Chelsea - Hazard SELL

It takes a wise mod

(that's enough crawling, ed)

Turtyturd

Liverpool: Sell Henderson. Would probably have been a harder choice between Sterling and Coutinho. Both Sterling and Henderson are massively overrated by some fans but I think Sterling has more room for improvement so would keep him.

United: Sell De Gea. They won't get rid of Rooney on his wage and De Gea is going back to Spain at some stage. Makes sense to cash in on him now while he is in good form and probably in the top 4 keepers in the league.

Arsenal: Sell O'Zil. Has never looked committed to Arsenal since he moved. Sanchez, has dipped off since carrying them at the start of the season but always seems to give everything.

Spurs: Sell Lloris. Probably the toughest one. Will Kane be a one season wonder? How much can Spurs squeeze out of United for Lloris? But Spurs have had trouble finding decent strikers so I would keep Kane.

Chelsea: Sell Hazard. Costa is the embodiment of Mourinho's 'philosophy' and would be more difficult to replace. Hazard is shackled in Mourinho's type of football and not playing to his potential so could be replaced easier.

Edit:

Man City: Sell Aguero. No doubt he's a good player when on form but too often the Aguero from the World Cup shows up when City need something big from him.

The exact same for me, De Gea has a more long term and pivotal role to play over the next ten years if he stays.

Lloris has been hit and miss and somewhat overrated IMO, good keeper but probably being De Gea, Courtois and Cech in the premier league.

Henderson has really taken huge steps in the last couple of seasons and is now a viable replacement for Gerrard. Sterling needs to add a bit to his game to become top notch. Even so this was the hardest to call but Henderson needs to stay.

Hazard, a great player that still has a lot more to come, Costas bully boy tactics are now distracting from his game.

Sanchez is kept over Ozil and would love to see someone justify otherwise.Easiest call of the lot for me.

What is this? Is this thread asking me whether I'd have Ozil or Sanchez or is there something to it I don't understand?

Seems fairly simple, you pick a player from each club you want to keep or sell if you were a fan of said club. A good one for a debate would be Ronaldo or Bale. The 30 yr old finished article or the 25 yr old new pretender

Interesting thread now I understand it.

My picks:
Keep > Sell
Hazard > Costa
Sterling >Henderson
De Gea > Rooney
Lloris > Kane
Sanchez > Ozil
Silva > Aguero

Haz, irreplaceable, form of his life, one of the best in the world. There are a good few better than Costa and plenty of only slightly lesser ability that Chelsea could bring in to replace him.

Sterling is one of the most exciting players to watch imo. Henderson seems consistent but only consistently slightly above average. Toughest comparison though as losing Sterling could be covered with Coutinho doing a great job.

De Gea is the only thing holding Utd together. Also could have them sorted for 15 years in goal.

Lloris is great and Kane is great so far. Not sure of his longevity.

Ozil is muck. Sanchez is great.

Without Silva City really don't have the magic to unlock a team whereas without Aguero they managed just fine and have plenty in the squad to do a decent job up top.

I feel the thread might have been made easier if there was only two voting options per club

e.g.

Its a really stupid concept though. I had imagined there was a bit more to it. I just don't get why someone on the internet is asking me if I'd rather have Sanchez or Ozil in my team.

Chelsea - Costa SELL

Interesting thread but it is a shame that polls with more than 2-3 options look awful on boards. A bar chart would look alot better in this case.

For my choices I put henderson before sterling as sterling is overated, lloris before kane for the same reason. Rooney before de gea as it is likely to happen that way and costa before hazard as hazard will get them more money.

Jeeze Louise, Turty, you been sniffin' around at the emirates again:P.

Hendo is the most important player of the two, Sterling has little end product as yet and i am starting to think he may not have any. He is disappointing so far this season but Hendo has risen to the occasion this year and is starting to become a leader, imo.

Sell DDG and keep Rooney as DDG is way, way more important to united.
Keep Sanchez and sell Ozil as Sanchez is far superior.
Sell Hazard and keep Costa, Hazard is the lynch-pin of the side and Costa looks like he will miss a good fw games with suspensions.
Sell Lloris and keep Kane, Lloris is keeping Spurs in the hunt.
Sell Aguero and keep Silva, Aguero doesn't post here anymore and Silva never posted here so no loss to the forum overall.

Muck was an exaggeration but in every Arsenal game I watch he's the normally the most anonymous of the creative players. Sanchez and Cazorla have been far better this season and last season he was quiet enough too. For the expectations on him he's underperforming imo.

I like the way you single out Ozil/Sanchez, when the Silva/Aguero and Costa/Hazard ones have clear winners too.

I wouldn't have said the winners were anywhere near as clear. Would go with Aguero and Hazard myself but I think others have disagreed.

If Rooney was two years younger I'd pick him over De Gea. Silva for me one of the two best attacking mids in the EPL along with Hazard which explains why I'd keep him over Costa and going back to City the issue being Aguero is too injury prone. Harry Kane is a future superstar imo. Henderson is a very underrated player and Sterling is very overrated I think.

GavRedKing

Keep/sell Henderson is very close as it should be IMO, keep sanchez/sell ozil have nearly the same vote, 75%, again, something you could have probably guessed.

I could have guessed them all besides the Sterling/Hendo, the only other one that was somewhat interesting was the Lloris Kane one and as you can see it's tight, total mismatch of players.

yaya or Silva
mata or adm

I agreed on all except:
Hendo - who I think in medium term vital and very reliable, whereas Sterling has peaks and troughs and is not as core to how we play. But I'm selling Sterling also on the basis that he's worth a ton more than Hendo.
Aguero - I think Silva is replacable (lots of players like him around; Modric, Coutinho, Fabregas, Gotze, Kroos, Ozil), but Aguero is much more unique.

Alfred Borden

Chelsea - Hazard KEEP

Kept Henderson and sold Sterling: Henderson offers great drive from midfield and is Liverpools future captain. Sterling is the better player but obviously not too committed to the club.

Kept De Gea and sold Rooney: Keep the second best gk in the world instead of the patchy Rooney who is really only a form player.

Kept Costa over Hazard: Costa offers Chelsea everything they lacked last year and is the second best striker in the league. Hazard is the most over rated player in the league.

Kept Lloris and sold Kane: Lloris is an outstanding gk and a top 5 in the world. Kane is very good but would like to see him repeat his success next season.

Kept Aguero over Silva: Aguero is the best player in the league and one of the only City players with a bit of fight. Silva again is extremely overrated.

Kept Ozil over Sanchez: Kept our best player who still has many more gears in him. Suits our style better over a great player in Sanchez, albeit a bit of a gloryer.
