I'd keep him even for 10m. Regardless of his age he's good at what he does and replacing with that money is not easy and a gamble not worth taking given the number of outgoings.

It is if he doesn’t want to go.

J Rod was good last season and goals win matches but I think it is best he moves on.
First, to get his salary off the books but also because, for me, he disrupts the team. In an age of 1 up front I just don’t see where he fits in: he works hard but isn’t a wide player, he isn’t bad on the ball but isn’t technical enough to be a number ten and isn’t a lone striker as, whilst he works hard, he isn’t pacy and doesn’t hold the ball up well. A Fortune would score less goals but bring so much more to the team.

If he goes we've got a hell of a replacement job needed up front. Taking out Gayle, JRod and half a season of Barnes goals from the team doesn't leave us with a lot.
