Easy, sell.

Get a few quid in, and let the lad go back home where he will have his suitors.

He has lost all his credit in the bank, because of a few blunders. He will be remembered for the howlers and not the clean sheets.

It seemed that his team mates no longer trusted him, and that may have damaged his confidence.

What a horrible situation to find yourself in.

loan out, then sell once he hopefully regains some value as his stock must be at an all time low

Keep or loan, I'd want around 15-20 if we sell. He's yet to mature as a keeper but he will.

Sell for the benefit of the club and the individual. Sometime the best way to improve confidence is to operate in a new environment.

Sell
I reckon we'd make a profit on him.

Illan needs a fresh start elsewhere!

Bench player if he's willing

First it's easier to go into the summer looking for one keeper than it is to buy two

Second, there could still be a future in him and I'd keep him as back up. Personally I'd look to make the kind of signing Forest did with Navas.

How many years has he been number 1 at LUFC in premiership and top of the championship. he has so much experience but lets face it he is not going to get any better
Leeds need to bring in a midfielder who can score goals and a decent number 9 in Jan 2027.

2 ? if we sell him.

1 new keeper and Darlow as back up

For his sake as much as ours I think he needs a fresh start elsewhere. Even if he was a bench player here the fans would still be nervy if he had to start any matches. A loan out is fine but he would then have to come back and be able to perform for us and I think even if it was after a year we'd all still feel wary.

I think take the money, should all be seen as profit now PSR wise as we signed him 5 years ago. Gives us good funds to bring in a replacement.

Couple a day.

Probably by position and see where we are at the end

Sell. Reluctantly. He's played his part over the years and not always had the luxury of having a solid defence in front of him. The mistakes this year though were damning and gut-wrenching for everyone at the time and my feeling is he will always have these mistakes in him. I think it is best for everyone he moves on. Won't ever forget that performance at Anfield though.

These polls were popular last we did them.

I'll keep bumping when I'm on here.

I would sell Meslier if we can get the right money for him. I don't see him in our plans especially in the Premier League.

We are going to have to buy a new starting keeper this summer.
