Nope, it isn't . I can see him deciding league one football isn't helping his international career, and so looks to move away . You couldn't blame him tbh .

Their loss. To be fair they haven't played him for 4 years so it's not like a sudden downturn after joining us.

Why is it bad news? If playing in lge1 was an issue, he wouldn't have been named in the original squad in the 1st place.

Good, let him get a good rest, a decen pre season and a great season. At 30, he needs to be playing less not more

I may be mistaken here, but didn't he make himself " unavailable" when selected earlier last season?

I'm a big fan of Morsy. Made a big difference to our midfield since his arrival. My only concern is the number of yellow cards he attracts. 15 last season. Suggesting he can be a little hot headed.
Whilst we will no doubt lose him for matches due to his discipline, selfishly at least we aren't losing him for internationals.
