I don't know whether he would, but he made his bed last year when he put in his trnafser request, and has again asked to leave the club this year. His stock has dropped this year, and the same agent that instructed him to get that transfer request in needs to find him a club or it could be a season in u23 football with us which really would hamper his development and value. |  |

I don't see what bed he's supposed to have made exactly? People are allowed to have career ambitions. Until there's a deal to move him on that satisfies all parties, he's still at the club and it's up to us to treat him on his merits and up to him to give his best. That's it. Everyone involved is a professional and should behave like it. I've no time for tantrums where we exile players with value to the club because we feel slighted in some way. |  |

the rumours are that he'd agitated for a move at the end of the season, so the tantrums might not be from the club. it is up to him to give his best, but not sure he did that last year (at the start particularly |  |

Downes also likes to eat at Wagamamas and there's one outside stadium MK if we're posting tenuous links... |  |

Rumours from where? Earlier this year I said I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted out based on logic but made it clear I was speculating. Others are desperate to appear in the know and this is one that is very easy to make up by putting 2 and 2 together. I think we need to be careful believing rumours like this about Downes unless anyone has a decent source that he's put a transfer request in? |  |

He handed in a transfer request at the start of the season didn't he to force a move in the first window once he knew Palace were interested? So i thought anyway... Poor form, sendings-off and injuries as well as uncertainty around Hodgson's contract obviously curtailed that and now he's in the under-23s. Funny ol' game! |  |

He did. I meant this summer. As someone said, can't blame him for having career ambitions. We're a league one club. |  |

fair enough, it was from someone on here who claims to be in the know in the last month, but forget who. over to them to identify themselves! just saying it might not be 100% the club agitating for this [Post edited 25 Jun 2021 18:46]

which is why i questioned whether he'd actually want the mk dons move, not that ambitious compared with palace! |  |

No that's true, you just said 'he won't be singing today' 'problem with the medical'and then he signed about 30 mins later. You also said a couple of days prior that the player wanted to stay at Wigan. Apart from those two minor things you were spot on. |  | |  |

Then we offered more money its not difficult to understand...even Wigan said the same Also there are few members on the board who know through private messages that I have been correct about many transfer dealings |  | |  |
