But why bring them up at such a critical stage of the season? I think he is guilty of selfishness by not waiting until the season is over.

I haven't heard Colin Hendry, Kevin Gallacher, Billy McKinlay or Henning Berg complaining. All top internationals, probably on their way to the World Cup in France.

Graeme Le Saux was in a rut when we signed him from Chelsea. We turned him into a successful, highly-paid, England international.

If you do go Graeme, cherish your championship medal, you might not see another.
