Does anyone actually think DC will let Fred go ?
I don't know tbh. Though if Fred really wants to leave there is nothing they can do about it(except offer him copius amounts of money)
In my view, we need to find a Fred-type player for the start of the season. By the time Fred becomes available, if indeed he does become available at all (certainly HN has his doubts), the season will be half over. If we don't hit the road running at the start of the season, it's going to be a tough season. Playmaker is a crucial position for us.
