You could be right, he was quoted as saying that a game in England was like three games on Portugal.

 

I just want to know why is it that if the PL is such a culture shock in terms of physicality from Europe and the Portugese League, then why have the likes of Moutinho and Neves managed to fit in so well?

Moutinho has played around the place, not just the Portuguese league

Where's the respect from this twat. First the incident at palace, now this when he's not even here to pay respects with the rest of the squad. Get rid

Sure he was on the tunnel cam somewhere mate, laying his shirt out by the side of the pitch with others I think.

No need to call him that

[ROB-THE-BLUE]

£25m or f@@k off. Sporting have had our pants down twice already. Was very glad we didnt give Slimani back to them on a cut price deal.

How can you get burnt once and go back for more i have no idea, we must be a laughing stock in their boardroom.

Yeah total scum, wanting to go back to his home country and watch the team he started his career at, and stayed with for 15 years. Can't think of anything worse.

Total non-story, for me.

Where's your respect? He was here and in Cardiff. 

[willie-bell-in-rothley]

Not good enough, just about sums everything he has done for Leicester City

[Ric Flair]

It was on Sunday, how dare he travel a day after a game on a weekend where the players who aren't on international duty are having an extra day or two off after the tragic events of the last few weeks. 

 

 

[ROB-THE-BLUE]

Pretty sure he was pictured with the Sporting players before their Arsenal game last week too.

So was Eric Dier. 

 

Players are allowed to travel to other games. I'm sure he's asked for permission (if needed) and the club allow it.

 

Some of the witch-hunts on here are ridiculous.

No witch hunt from me, was just saying.... 

[Gazza M]

Doesn't appear to be working here for him. Maybe a Jan move may be a good thing if somebody bid. 

[Clever Fox]

I thought he was a poor signing at the time and so it's proved.

He's one we need to get rid off so the sooner the better.

On the other hand he's never really had a chance here. But he's not physical enough for the premiership.

Dier looked absolutely delighted to see the Sporting lads.

Agreed,  a poor signing but he had a chance. Mendy disproved the myth that you need a long run of games. He appears to have good technical ability but our game seems to fast and robust for him. He could do something about his lack of strength getting knocked off the ball though. Kante, Marhez and Mendy are hardly giants but they managed to adapt. Armarty too found the physicality difficult when he first got here but managed to drag himself into the gym after training most days. It's a case of application sometimes perhaps? 

[Clever Fox]

Yes, It's all of those things. But he's come here as a seasoned international player and hasn't looked remotely like one. Some player adjust quicker than others but he doesn't seem to want to make the effort.

Which is why it would better if he left.

[Paninistickers]

It's a sad situation for the guy. 

 

 He's paid nigh on 10 times a week more than he's worth.  teams suited to his ability level would even be pushed to pay the tenth he's worth.

 

It leaves the rather brutal choice of informing him we'll honour his contract, but will train with the u23s for the remainder of his time with us. Or he can accept a modest settlement and clear off.

 

Gokhan Inker had the dignity to accept that type of offer (guesswork, from me). I suspect Silva would too, rather than destroy his career for money. 

[st albans fox]

Seems that all sides of this particular transfer merry go round didn’t get what they wanted ....... (Chelsea, us, DD, Adrien) .......... SCP president was chuffed (again!) but karma got him less than a year later ...........
