Unfortunately, if he's being asked to leave he can't stay in the first team squad. As a senior player and club captain, he has too much influence to be hanging around when he isn't wanted and his comments only serve to prove that he could be a disruptive influence - I don't mean that as a criticism, I just mean that it isn't healthy to have an unhappy player that everyone looks up to moping around the squad. It's the right move to have him train away from the first team, shame though it is.
