Surely we can just offer him out for nothing? Save the wages.

I wouldn't pay a player who can't properly kick a ball 40 quid a week, let alone 40k. 

 

It's yet another in a long line who should've been called into Rudkin's office, apologised to for wasting each others' time and paid off in full.

I theory he's one we should feel confident about this season being a long time Premier league player. 

 

What a shit show most fans don't want him near the pitch.

Dude, 500 PL games or not, he can't connect properly with a fcking ball. He has no pace, no strength, no height, he can't dribble nor tackle. The only thing I've seen him do is stand on the wing, keep out of the way  and try not to get under anybody's feet.

even if he is "ok" at this level, so what. At that point he's just an obstacle to the development of Monga, Evans and Fatawu. Play the younger players with a point to prove, not over the hill dross like Reid.

[Foxmeister]

He’s a player I had very low expectations of and he has still come nowhere near meeting them.

[Freeman's Wharfer]

He has precious few years of his career left. Let him know that, if he stays here, his career has ended today. If he wants to eek something out of his final years being able to play professionally, he needs to find somewhere else to do that.

Circa £ 2 million per year.2 years  to run on contract. He won't leave for less than £2.5 million pay off

Yeah that's the point I'm making. 

 

Going into this season it's shameful we've signed a player that we can say the above about. We should be extremely happy we've got him. Not saying above. 

 

I'm making the exact point you are.

That is where he's played most of his career, we just should never of signed him for the PL. I would never sign anyone who's done well for Marco Silva as he seems to get the best out of players, especially one who is well over his peak. 3 year contract for this guy, OMG.

 

Marti will just have to be ruthless and not play him. Footballers all want to play and will hang around for a certain amount of time and collect their wages, train etc, but at some point most will want to play if they can and accept a pay cut to go somewhere - they are a long time retired.

Yes I do you genius. Ffs do you realise we have a DOF who’s deluded and tries to get ridiculous fee’s for players who are not close to that valuation?

Yes but vesty refused to move twice and Youri refused to go to arsenal

[CrazyKopCorner]

Whoever was behind his signing should be frog marched off the premises never to ****ing return - A disaster of a player.

 

I can't take another season of watching this limp biscuit of a player 

[Muzzy_no7]

Let’s say BDCR is on £45,000 with us in the championship.

 

Does he have one year left?

 

Or have we given him 3😂😂😂😂😂.

 

Oh ffs we gave him a 3 year deal. 
 

F*** off rudders. 
 

Would cost us in excess of 5m…FIVE MILLION to cancel his contract. 
 

No one will buy him, no one will loan him. 
 

Another unreal decision by Rudders under pressure from Pooper. 

[Dan]

Problem is even if they're 'OK' in the Championship we've seen what they're about in the Premier League. Given they're mostly on Premier League wages we need them out. You can't trust the club to do the right thing - look what happened with Vestergaard. A disaster signing for two years, looks alright in a league he 'should' be miles above, does fairly well, we go and hand him another three year contract.

 

Whenever you follow a flow chart on us it always goes back to us doing something stupid and damaging. It's why it's basically impossible to get excited.

[kingfox]

After watching our last friendly game and hearing Marti on the When you’re smiling podcast, I really don’t see how BDCR has a future at Leicester City unless Marti tries him as a 10.

Yeah, no mention of him when Marti was speaking about our wingers. Fingers crossed he's been told he's training with the kids unless he finds another club. 

[Paninistickers]

No pressure for the new manager, but what he does with BdcR is a bell weather. 

 

Enzo rumbled Ward from the get go and relegated him to GK warmer upper. Cooper reinstated the fool to the bench. It says it all. 

 

I have every confidence that the manager has reviewed videos (and probably had to re review them to believe what he was seeing) and as a result, BdcR won't be part of the 25 man squad.

I've heard that at Seagrave, after everyone has gone home, you can hear Spanish laughter echoing down the hallways that slowly turns to sobs as realisation kicks in.

[CornwallFox]

There was never a single moment anybody thought this would be a good signing. Who on earth scouted him?

[CrazyKopCorner]

One of, if not, the weakest player I’ve ever seen play for us. Powder puff couldn’t knock the skin off a rice pudding. Super shite.

 

Should get his agent in and tell him to find him another club

In fairness at the time I.thought he was as Fulham fans rated him. Not sure how they did
