Reading we are looking to sell Tim in January, would go along with that not good enough unfortunately,

Only if we get a replacement in. We have no one who can sit in front of the back four.
Weirdly enough he did that job well against Fulham and I’m not his biggest fan at all.

Think it would be a mistake. Think he has all the technical qualities to be top quality, just needs a lot of development on the mental aspects, which he needs more top level game time for.
Also, how much will we even get for him? If it's not going to be a good profit, which i doubt it will be, what's the point? He's not on big wages and is valuable depth. Would be a bizarre decision if true.

Bought him for £9 million I think from Villa.
{Ed025's Note - i thought it was a straight swap for Dobbin GB?..

No I think we paid £10m for him and received £10m for Dobbin
As academy outgoings for both teams, it’s listed as pure profit while the outgoing fee’s are listed in installments.

Deal benefitted both clubs for FFP, academy player income being pure profit.

Perhaps it's because they are looking to bring in McTominay? Get him and their could be a reshuffle in midfield, leaving very little playing time if any for Tim.
