    According to the BBC and The Sun Stubbs is looking to make a move for Commons and take him to Rotherham.

    As Daithi says the sun and bbc reporting Commons to Rotherham which is interesting as I read Paulthetim on KDS a few days ago saying that Commons and Stokes were going to Rotherham.

    I like Commons and would like him to stay. But at the same time, wouldn't be all that fussed if he did go. Maybe be a good move for him.

    For me, the time is right for him to go.

    I hope it's Rodgers making the call?!

    It may very well be Commons making the call.

    Think we'd be daft to sell him, he's shown last year he's one of very few dangerous players we have in Europe. Not an easy thing for us to come by.

    I've never been overly in love with the guy but his record speaks for itself.

    I wouldn't let him go, not at this stage. We'd get very little money for him so not much incentive on that part and he provides a reliable option in terms of goals and allround game changing ability at times.

    I'd like to see him stay and retire here but obviously he might have other ideas.

    Torn on this one. He can be either amazing or proper *. I think it may just be time to move on and start a new era with younger plyaers in that role (Rogic/Christie)

    Exactly. We are bloated in that position and although Commons has the experience and so on, we need to look to the future. I'd be * off if Commons was preventing Christie from getting a chance.

    Thats the way I'm seeing it. It's clear as day that Rogic and Christie both have big potential. I feel it may be short sighted to keep Commons.

    But you could argue we're forced to be short sighted with CL qualification looming at the start of each season. It's a tough one, but I'm leaning towards Commons leaving

    Writing's been on the wall for Kris for awhile sadly. Can't see him fitting into Rogers' vision, specially after a year basically doing nohing.

    Think Commons has been treated poorly by the club in all honesty.

    Not the most athletic player but clearly loves playing and is one of our best and most consistent performers.

    Stokes and Commons to Rotherham would make sense, both know the League and were good in it.
