He was directly asked about his future here in relation to the rumours about him leaving

His comments were basically a "come and get me" plea to Man Utd.
 
... or, I have no plans to leave, but I cannot stop the club from accepting an outrageously large bid from a club such as Manure, and asking me if I would like to talk to them?
 
I genuinely don't get the hate for Slimani.

Scores when played properly, works his bollocks off.

Strange
 
When we bought Vardy and Mahrez for less than £2million, some people probably expect that £35million gets you an amazing player!

It's not hate really though is it? It's exasperation born out of frustration I think (at least for me, anyway). Yes, he works hard but not smart. He charges around the pitch like a bull whilst his brain is often in neutral and gives away countless fouls. It's sometimes akin to watching young children play football where they all chase the ball like wasps with no real idea of where they should be at any given moment.

He scores goals sometimes, this is correct but only really one dimensionally. Defenders know that if they can nullify head height crosses, Slimani probably won't offer anything else. There could be a very good footballer there somewhere and with time we may see it but all evidence thus far suggests that he isn't a very bright one.

It's not a case of expecting the world for £35m but if we'd seen him play last season for a different Premier League club, like the way he has played for us so far, there would be apocalyptic outrage if we were offering anything more than about £10m never mind 30 odd.
