Archie Gray

One of my reasons for wanting us to move Bergvall on is to get Gray into his preferred midfield role.

I thought he was excellent at times for us last season in midfield. His ceiling may not quite be as high as Bergvall’s but his floor is significantly higher.

Bergvall isn't the reason Gray is stuck at RB.

If he does go to Brentford that is an absolute shocker of a decision.
 
I cannot imagine we would contemplate selling Archie.
If we do, that would raise serious concerns about how we view a path for very talented young players to make their mark.
 
So how do we feel about these youngsters potentially going to the manager and telling them they want to leave? what should the manager do? force them to stay? give them the minutes they want whilst upsetting more experienced players?

He is hardly going to announce he is one of the leadership group, give him captaincy all pre season and the first game of the season just to sell him.

I hear you, but I'm not sure that would necessarily stop/prevent a sale.
It can be that a club wasn't intending to sell a player, and/or didn't expect offers to come in, and selling club may actually like said player.
But every player has a price. When an offer arises that meets that price, or exceeds it, there is often discussion and decisions to be made.
