Whatever Emre wants just give it to him ffs. He deserves to be among the top earners.
Great performance today.
This is the problem that I have when our supporters are called the smartest around. "Great performance today." You said it. Great performance.... today. Done well so far.... this season.
But since he signed for us he has been inconsistent (at best) including some periods where he has been absolutely dreadful.
But yeah, he's had a couple of good weeks so let's lock him down for another five years, eh? It's that kind of decision making that got us stuck will all kinds of dead wood over the last few years.
If we don't sell him before Thursday then he can't sign a pre-contract until January anyway. So given that he's never been consistent for us, ever, how about we wait and see if he can play well, consistently, week in and week out, until at least October or November? If he does, great, we can put a new contract in front of him.
If not then we won't have given someone another extension on the back of a few good weeks.
I swear, next Lovren will play well for two weeks and everyone will forget how sh*te he's been and want to sign him to a new contract, too.
