Ashley's looking for a buyer, and he usually gets one. I was bought a few months in, they wanted to hire Shearer, but they kept me. Hopefully you get a good new owner though, some people were able to get Van der Vaart after one season, and I was lucky enough to get Lansbury for 3mil compensation, and that was after budget adjustments.
I'd recommend Wilshere and Vaughn on loans in the CCC. I had Wilshere, and really wanted him to sign him full time but I didn't have the money. I didn't get Vaughn, but for some people he's been tearing it up. OH, and Franco di Santo, he was great for me.
