I seem to remember Puel was making a point after Vardy called him a nasty word and hurt his feelings.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2607 Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 imagine if Grey does join Spurs and they win the league........... he would be a player with two premier league winning medals.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanolegend1989 Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 I still don’t understand why he’s being blanked out. For me he is part of our best 18 players. He would give a different option to Under and Barnes in games and certain games he might even be useful as a starter.  The reason he’s being blanked out is because he’s been inconsistent at times, but he was probably our best player in the lockdown games and made an impact in a struggling poor team. With our team now, if at full strength, Gray could be in our front 3 and potentially make us a better team. Ive never once seen Gray get a good run in the team when we’ve had a decent team. 15/16, 19/20 he wasn’t given much of a chance, most his appearances were sporadic in Puels time when our squad was pretty average and it’s hard for any winger to be consistent in these circumstances. I will find it very annoying if we let him go because he could offer us a lot and I’m not suprised one bit that Spurs have been mentioned. One to regret if we let him go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been offered terms but his overall role has been laid out for him. He wants to start (quite understandably) and therefore he's chosen to run his contract down, presumably with the blessing of the club. BR is therefore building his team and squad around players he knows are committed to the project beyond this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingsX Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 5 hours ago, Muzzy_Larsson said: If Spurs are indeed interested (which I doubt) and he goes there he's an idiot and only chasing money as he's never going to play regularly there, he'd be lucky to make the bench most weeks. If he's serious about carving out an actual football career and has the hunger to develop he'll go somewhere he's going to play every week.  Given the ongoing Jose / Dele soap opera, it is hard to imagine Mourinho as keen to add another talented but underachieving young attacker who is known to turn off in training.  Much easier to imagine Levy as keen to sign Demarai to a £2-3M per year contract, let Mourinho play him in cups and in garbage time, and then sell him for £10-15M after five months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to fight for his place and if he wants to start of bust then that’s not the attitude I want here. Saying that though, he’s a lot better than people seem to give him credit for and If they have had a disagreement would like to think they could sort it out. I’d like him to be given a chance because he should be right on the question with Barnes and Under and above Perez for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sm1 Posted 30 November 2020 Share Posted 30 November 2020 Promises so much but delivers so little. He's been given plenty of chances, Puel even started him in front of Vardy. He'll end up like knockart, yo-yoing between the PL and Championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrispinLA in Texas Posted 6 December 2020 Share Posted 6 December 2020 Hope he plays against Sheffield, he's what we need at the moment whose fresh and hasn't had the work load of some of our players so isn't tired. He has the abilty to provide Vardy with great passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange one this. Remember when he came on against Watford in the first game after lockdown, didn’t have a bad game and thought for a minute he turned a corner. Never really happened for him here, think for both parties it’ll be good if he leaves the club and gets game time somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aus Fox Posted 6 December 2020 Share Posted 6 December 2020 Best for both parties if he moves on, but for his sake I hope it’s to a Crystal Palace, Newcastle or WBA rather than Spurs. If he ever wants to develop into the player we thought we had a few seasons ago, he needs to up somewhere he will play most weeks. He can be a decent PL player, it just won’t happen for him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Clender Posted 6 December 2020 Share Posted 6 December 2020 My biggest worry about Gray leaving is, where will all of the spite directed at him move to? Madders? Bané? Choudza? Pereth? The Kids? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devonfox1884 Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Any chance we could squeeze a couple of million out for him in January? Maybe a struggling PL side or a leading championship team may want him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban.spaceman Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Sad it didn’t work out in the end. But he’ll leave us a champion, and didn’t cost us that much. I wish him the very best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJB-fox Posted 11 December 2020 Share Posted 11 December 2020 Doubt he’ll want to drop down to the championship because he’s certainly good enough for lower half prem but he’d be a great signing for Bournemouth, Watford, Norwich etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
