Been in this camp for months now. And whilst it's extremely likely they Rudkin is useless, we actually don't have any real evidence of this because we don't know what he's actually responsible for. And if he is so awful, then you sack him. All roads lead back to Top/the ownership.

And the reality is that this could be true. Could suffer a horrible injury at any point and completely scupper his career. You'd like to think cooler heads would prevail and he'll be given a clear pathway and other assurances that sees him stay, but for the reasons you've listed, it's probably unlikely that it happens.

Don't think it was as drastic as some people made out, but certainly not the same player. Though you only had to look at how he played when Smith put him in to see the massive upgrade he would have been on Faes and Amartey

People like you ruin my working day . Happens all the time anyway and most of the time, what's shared isn't much of an issue.

I wish this was true just because it would be one of the dumbest things I've ever heard . But then I also don't as it would make you a spineless **** This could backfire very quickly!

It absolutely is how it works. It wasn't an obligation to buy him, just an option. If they deem he's not worth that value after what is effectively a year long trial, then why should they pay that? The option exists because often the loaning club is paying a sizeable loan fee so it's essentially a discount off the final value if they do want him, plus it also protects them for taking a punt in the case that the player has a breakout season and there value suddenly sky rockets. As the 'selling' club, you're hoping that it incentives the other club into going for that player as the optics of the deal are much better generally. The fault, as always, lies with us and our decision to loan these players out without and guarantee of selling them

Can't recall him outside of a transfer window

Only been supporting us for a couple of years then? I give you Brendan Rodgers.

Should have been overturned so justice served I guess. Awful pen

Laughable that people think he's better than Kasper was. Think some people seriously underestimating that we had one of the best in the world for so long

Nobody but at least a few can say they haven't been much worse. FB has completely nose dived

Still doesn't undo the fact he's been utter cack almost every game under RVN. Should have been given more opportunities but hasn't helped his case when he has been given one.

What a c***. Could bring on Monga but of course not.

Just had a great chance but went top early then absolutely cocked it up

Absolutely pathetic that was because he covered the middle of the pitch (leaving the flank open) so Cunha should never have got through.
