    I heard when i was down the training ground on Saturday that his contract has been terminated by mutual consent.He has gone back to Spain.

    On the strength of his one 1st team game, if he's gone he is no great loss

    Shame if it hasn't worked out but thankfully things are going better than we could have hoped even without him. It'd be nice to hear something official - unless of course there's nothing to report.
  • Never got the chance to sing "he's better than Xabi"

    Signing 2 midfielders on loan inside a week was surely the writing on the wall........?

    He was awful against Brentford.

    Awful and off the pace 1st half, JT.

    But he got his game together 2nd half and made a decent contribution.
    And he never hid, did he?

  • Obviously just a baseless rumour. If it was true it would be on the O. S. wouldn't it?

    CAFC official twitter said it was an "ill founded rumour".

    I'll believe it when Powell says it. I hope he stays as there's quality there
  • I understand that, but if he's still here, he obviously ranks behind Darel Russell and Bradley Pritchard, which puts him well down the pecking order.

    Or he's not fit again?

    @rmrpeterson Why should the club respond to every ill-founded rumour that does the rounds? (MW)

    Actually the reply by the club is neither an acceptance of the suggestion nor a rebuttal.  It asks a question whilst leaving the impression that the suggestion has no basis.  My reading of that response is that it is indeed true and Alonso will be spending Xmas in Spain.  Fortunately our midfield (well Hollands at least) is fit and playing well.

    As you say it is neither an acceptance nor a rebuttal so it could be true or not.  As I said context is everything

    I would still hope he may come good as Powell said we should not be caught short over Xmas. He has played over 100 games in La Liga.

    He could play against Carlisle if he does not and there are no injuries then I agree the most likely outcome is a return to Spain
