I voted Keep. He is still young enough to sort his head out and become a decent player.

spot on. needs to sort out his positioning but hopefully mancio can school him on this.

he's such a frustrating player though, all the physical attributes for a top, top right back are there.

Definitely keep him. No matter who says what, the kid is quality! He's had a bad season but hopefully with a bit of one to one coaching, pointing out where he's going wrong and what he's doing right, showing him when he's bombing forward too much, I think we can get the old Micah back. In my opinion he's shown more potential than Ned.

Also, what would we gain by selling him? We'd probably get what £10 million for him? We paid £22 mill for Lescott FFS! What about if he goes somewhere else and gets back to where he belongs and we live to regret it for £10 million?! Not worth selling him at this point tbh.

The club doesn't need to sell anyone.

dont let him rot under harry rednapp city!

Micah going to spurs would be a back track in your career , if you read this forum just look at people like barton and sturridge who had there heads filled with shite and told they was better than what they actually was. You have talent but harry rednapp wont improve you , give mancini a chance he has already showed faith in you so you would be silly to move mate.

Could probably throw SWP in that as well.

No brainer. We don't need the money and we've all seen what he's capable of.

Keep.

Hate is a bit of a strong word...I just don't think he is...or will ever be good enough...just my opinion...lots obviously disagree

Keep him. He has the remainder of the season to listen and learn from Mancin the art of defending. Surely Micah will not be choosing to leave us now we are on the crest of greatness.

I expect the Club to review at the end of the season a number of the players we currently have and ask the question are they good enough to play winning Champions League football. If the answer is no then they will be replaced and moved on though with lengthy contracts this may take a few years.

I think people disagree because we've all seen what he's capable of. He was a class act under Pearce and Sven and he deserved his place in the England side when he got it. His form dipped under Les but let's see what he's capable of under Mancini. Personally, I think he'll flourish and I'd rather see him do it with us than with one of our rivals.

He had maybe one good season...weigh it up against all the bad games he has had for us and there is only so much leeway you can give the lad...the 'he's a young lad so we havn't seen the best of him' arguement is wearing a bit thin...he's no longer the fresh faced youngster...at his age he should have come into his own...he hasn't

His positioning is still diabolical...he just doesn't have that footballing brain needed in the Prem...he's boxing above his weight

Maybe it's the fact that he is playing as RB when he might be better suited to central defence...or maybe as I suspect...he's just a Championship defender punching above his weight...getting away with it because the team around him are decent
