Vesty and Winks are 2 of the biggest turds at the club!

You just know it’s going to Martin.

Top only needs to read what Pep said about him.

Must be lovely to support a team that give a shit.

Would take that over watching us right now.

Bit tinpot, letting him run down his contract. Thought it was only us who did that....

Wouldn't be surprised if he has a nanny at home sorting most of work and he's out doing other stuff.

Interestingly, a lot of split opinion on this. Hemel isn't that much of a commute in the grand scheme of things. I think Kasper and Brendans commutes from up north were worse, although no cases are exactly the same. I think the reality of the situation is if the commute affects his ability to do his job, then the employer has every right to bring this up. I'm not convinced forcing people to live near the club is essential in this day and age unless there are clear issues. But if the manager thinks the player isn't fully committed to the task at hand (i.e turning up late or even 'just' in time, not preparing adequately, suffering additional fatigue through lots of travel, not fulfilling any post training tasks to leave at a time to get home etc), then this is a sufficient request. The club provides the facilities to support players who commute, and i don't think they are at training that often. Whats missing from the Story is if Ruud has done this just because he's in charge and he wants to throw his weight around, or if it's clear that Winks personal situation means he isn't working to the required standard. You hear romantic stories of Beckham and Ronaldo staying after training to put in extra shifts, work on specifics. I can imagine as the boss, team not doing what you ask of them, it must suck to watch the players leave Seagrave the minute training is over. I would like to think the players are doing everything they can to turn our current situation around. But if he's turning up just in time to start training, and leaving the second it finished and doing very little else, that would pi55 me off.

Losing has become a habit. Not scoring has become a habit. We can't take this momentum into next year. We have to change it.

There was more fight under Enzo, with the squad playing for him and really buying in to what he wanted to do. Even against Chelsea in the FA Cup last year we attacked and offered something. Right now, the team is playing for no one. I dont think we would have capitulated so quickly. It would have been hard, but Enzo wouldn't have gone down staring at the pitch aimlessly for 90 minutes. -

Whats he even doing? What are they doing in training? Do they even meet each other before games and train together? Have these players ever seen each other before? What Top doing? Why am i asking. Whats the point anymore. And why oh why has Mads Hermansen forgotten how to kick a football. He's gone from class to bang average. -
Oh pish its matchday

Shouldn't we be looking at getting rid of Riccy P? Love him to bits, but surely he can take semi retirement in the States or Saudi. He' been injured for most of our 2 relegation campaigns.
-
You keep Skipp surely, especially if Winks and Ndidi go. Skipp would have a good season in the Championship. I would want to keep Bilal and get rid of Coady and Jannick. Want Daka gone really. No point holding on for hope that he might be the answer.

Hes a shit liar.

Marmoush looks like a better all round player.

Everybody is shit

Nyoni gets talked about on here like hes been a rip roaring success at Liverpool. But even with the additional opportunities for starting at Liverpool, he has 0 PL minutes and his start in the FA Cup against Plymouth saw Liverpool lose and i dont remember seeing much from him in that game. He's been on the bench a few times, and that's part and parcel of Liverpool being in so many competitions. But i still think being sat on the bench isn't a guide to success when blooding new talent. With the youngsters, time will tell. No matter what route Monga takes its a risk, but im not convinced the decision will be made based on a few games on the bench next season, plus a start against a lower league club in the cups.

Madness. Lose every game for the rest of the season and the majority of the fans turn on King. King isn't ready for the top job, he is more value for us long term if we let him learn the job properly he could develop into a great coach for us.
-
Last game i saw them win on TV at FT they were playing 'I predict a riot' whilst Farke was fist pumping all the fans around the stadium. Will never learn will they.

He was recovering from an ACL for most of last season, and then had a few other injuries whilst getting back.
-
Was hoping to be out in London with a very old friend who moved to Canada. They've just had to cancel their trip.

For a while he had pretty decent goal contribution stats in the Championship. That Leeds game was the day it all fell apart. He had a legit goal chalked off that would have made it 2-0 to us, then he scuffed that shot. He confidence was shot after that. The fact he couldn't pick himself up after that when we were playing Championship dross there for the taking tells you what you need to know about his mentality. Oddly, the game showed me what he was made of was the Leeds away game in our relegation season. We had got the game back to 1-1, and Daka was through and pretty much 1 on 1 with the keeper. Instead of taking his chance and going for it, he squared it to Vardy who was scored but was offside. It was a bad decision that i think he made out of respect. What that 3 points would have done to that season as well.

Daka always comes across as lovely in his interviews. I never doubt he would be a lovely bloke to be around. But when we talk about mentality, and desire etc, he should have made it his mission to be our number 1. He should have been laser focussed to have achieved that, no matter what. Instead, he's shown Vardy far too much respect. I think in the early days he waited for his opportunity, rather that pushing to take it. Thats then symbolised where he is now. 1 goal this season for someone who should be hitting their prime years. Sad thing is, this whole experience has probably given him everything he needs to make his next move a success. I've always felt he will go somewhere with a completely different mind set and take his opportunities. Will probably go somewhere in Italy and bag 20 goals in a season.
