The only person who wants Seb to go is his agent. I think Seb's happy to give it a season, or even 6 months to see how we're doing. |

Perhaps we should start collecting for a wreath for Mr Gold then as I am 100% sure Larsson will be gone come the end of the transfer window. :banghead: |

I'm not so sure that he'll be leaving this summer. I'm inclined to think that a deal has already been made with Seb to say that we will not stand in his way if he wants to leave in January, as long as he stays until then. If we're top of the CC & looking good for promotion, he might stay - if not he'll be off like a shot :( Might explain why DS & DG are so vocal in saying he's going nowhere - good PR for them when he doesn't go next month and a 'get-out' from critisism if/when he goes in 6 months time. (of course I could be wrong... ;) ) |

Sebs agent was in the Swedish press today saying that it is unfair for Gold to come out with a comment "over his dead body" He says Seb wants to leave and play premiership football. But with these sorts of comments it makes it very hard for him to make his move, the fact that he will become an unhappy player at blues and that the parting will be unpleasant. He says also that he thinks blues will sell Larsson if the right offer comes in as they have done this before after saying players not for sale. He is committed to getting the best move for Larsson before the new season starts, but he also goes on to say that there are 6 weeks of the window left and a lot can happen in that time. He is concerned that Seb will be un happy if he is forced to stay and that his relationship with the club will be very poor. He also splurges some nonsense about how bad Swedish players are treated in the UK. I have translated this myself (I lived in Sweden for 3 years) its not word for word I tried to get the general points of the article and some things don’t really translate that well, having said that the gist of the translation is correct |

Oh dear.............but I am not at all surprised. Does anybody translate Scottish. I'd be interested to see what McFadden and his agent are reported to be saying in the Daily Record. |

Cobblers. The board will sell anyone if the money is right. I read that as an instruction to re-evaluate any offer. Save us please from the endless flow of promises and solemn vows from the board; shut up Mr Gold and achieve something, then you can gob off. |

If Larsson wants to go he should put in a transfer request. In the absense of such a request his agent should understand he is contracted to us and should button up. I am sick and tired of agents speaking on behalf of players (assuming he is doing that), and the authorities not having the power to do anything about it. Its about time agents were licensed and restrictions put on their actions. Dig your heals in DG. I'd rather see Larsson sit in the stands and watch us for a season that be sold. Its about time clubs made a stance. |

Anybody remember this? All of seven months ago - he does make me laugh because I think he believes himself.
I think he is sad really, not devious. |

Larsson agent hits out at Gold Larsson: Agent unhappy Sebastian Larsson's agent has hit out at Birmingham City chairman David Gold for blocking the Sweden international's St Andrews exit. Gold claims that Larsson will only leave the club 'over my dead body', with both Blackburn and Newcastle believed to be interested in his services. Manager Alex McLeish is facing a battle to retain the services of his leading players following Blues' relegation from the Premier League on the final day of last season. And Per Jonsson is unhappy that the midfielder is not being given the opportunity to move away from the Midlands outfit. Punished He told Sportbladet: "It's not funny to hear when he (Gold) says things like that. "Are we Swedes being punished because we are kind and don't nag to leave? "Do you need to become enemies with everyone at the club to be allowed to leave? "He has said things like this before and still sold players anyway. "Maybe Birmingham will get an offer they can't refuse. I hope it will be solved." THIS TELLS ME SEB WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE? feed.back |

The fact is that agents make their money by moving their clients from club to club. That's pretty good motivation for agents to make sure they unsettle players and persuade them they would be better off elsewhere!! |

Seems a few don't really know much about him but majority appreciate he is our player under contract. Some even seem to think they don't need him? I can't see him going to Newcastle though. The Blackburns, Boltons, Sunderlands etc are the teams I think will make an official approach but will all be put off by his price tag. |

Slightly off topic, but I reckon in your signature that McLeish is the shining barrier between the players who've left and who are here. It's a sign. |

That's one way to look at it! The other is to see it as a hit list :blink: |

I've lost interest in whether Seb stays now, if he wants to move just make sure we get £5m plus for him and a decent replacement, same applies for Kelly and McFadden. I can accept Kelly wanting to leave, but Larsson and McFadden in my opinion owe us some loyalty here, sorry, shouldn't use that word when it comes to football. |

I totally agree with your point. I think that if larsson shows the desire he doesn't want to be here after being offered a new contract then he can go and the same goes for McFadden. They may be very good players but they don't make a 2 man team we are Birmingham City at the end of the day, and football is a squad game not an individual. I do like them both alot but as far as i'm concerened if they are not happy then they can leave, but don't get me wrong i would be very happy if both stayed but if these claims are true then let him go we can replace him we could get Ben Watson aswell or the Alan Gow were linked with or the dutch player? KRO :) |
