I would disagree. I'd feel the wages are the reason he has to go. I'll make no apologies for saying I thought he'd be great for us. If you look at players like Silva for example who were a bit lightweight or not up to it in their first season here but once they settled became excellent. If Rodgers has identified Şahin as a similar case then it doesnt warrant him being here to settle into a league in which he wont participate in next season. I still maintain he'll become a world class midfielder for years to come, pity it will be somewhere else.
