yeah I don't blame Schneiderlin here. Southampton knew that Shaw and Lallana were hot commodities and that they probably couldn't hold on to them, but selling Lambert, Lovren and Chambers too has opened the floodgates. And now they are refusing to let Schneiderlin and Rodriguez go despite their public "players who don't want to be here should go" stance ... I'd be pissed too.
At this point, they probably should sell them all and build a new squad. Too many bridges burnt.
