A lot of rumours about Cork leaving, hope it's not true as I think he's been one of our best players this season, he'll be big miss if we let him go IMO
Could not agree more I was worried when we signed wanyama this might happen very underrated player think cork is very good at his role very very disciplined and has great ball retention and distribution, will be a massive blow.
Does anyone know which clubs are interested? Swansea are still interested as are Newcastle, Villa and I heard Everton is a possibility. If Everton pip Arsenal to fourth who could blame him?

The rumours are only there because he is yet to discuss a new contract. This is a knock on effect of having a new board & them having to find their feet before waving contracts & money around. The board have already stated that no player will leave that MoPo wishes to keep so I'm safely assuming Cork will be staying.

MoPo doesn't fancy JC, that's why he bought the Donkey (sorry Ed001, I don't share your enthusiasm) and only played JC when he had too. He dropped him for Fulham away as soon as Big Lad was available and he's only playing now because our £12m summer signing isn't quite right yet, whatever that means. Count how many times JC gets brought off before the end of a game, no matter how well he's playing.
One thing I do agree with Ed001 on is that Cork will leave this summer. How many times. The club have refused to enter into contract negotiations with him.

You can't be so sure he is leaving in the summer of course he might. Poch might go, might stay if he goes the other manager might prefer him!
Besides Wanyama has been fit for many games the last few months and cork has started ahead of him every time! he must not under value him that much. Plus when he gets taken off, he gets taken off because we are trying to score and he is the least likely to score or set up a goal out of our midfield! Simple explanation
