On the Team sheet so defo there
 
I think DJ or his Agent or both seem to over value his importance.

Won’t be surprised or bothered really if he is sold in the summer.

Totally agree, whilst D.J. is ok and a decent championship Player he's very rarely a game changer.
So whilst an important member of the squad as it stands he is not as irreplaceable as say Pearson.
Happy to see him stay but equally not that bothered if he goes!

If he was worth half of what he thinks he is it would still break our wage cap.Stay/go not arsed.
 
We got him for 50k, he has done next to nothing for the past 18 months and people are talking millions for him, the game might have gone mad, but not that mad !!
 
I like DJ and would miss him if he went elsewhere. Picks a good pass out and never panics. Granted makes mistakes at times but even Demigod Pearson ( whom I also rate very highly, don't mistake me here!) has mislaid passes that have led to us conceding.

I agree - imo he was a decent div 1 player and a luxury in the champ because he doesnt want to work hard when not in possession.

take the opportunity to create space on the wage bill for someone who will put their body on the line.

On the other hand, one could argue that he's just asking for the going/market rate at this level, which he could easily get elsewhere.

I also think he'll be off and it's a shame because he's very, very talented.

That maybe so and of course they will always push to get the best deal but not only would it break our wage structure it would also make him easily the best paid player at the club which whilst I accept the wage structure does need to increase in order for us to bring in better players for DJ to expect to the highest earner at the club is unrealistic.

It might be unrealistic from a PNE perspective, but not unrealistic if it's been put under his nose by other clubs.

I'm disappointed at how it's panned out for him this season to be honest. He was absolutely outstanding in the first couple of months, as he has been in recent seasons, but once again faded.

If you could get 30+ games out of him at the level he performed at when Neil first joined we'd be talking £10m. Personally wouldn't want us to sell until we've replaced him.

Agree entirely with your last point. Gallaher and DJ are two of our most creative players who have that bit of extra time on the ball. No point buying a striker and then reduce the creative supply line, even if its from the bench.
