Leicester Lass Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Set to join Sheff Utd on loan says Stringer on his twitter.
AKCJ Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Good. I was worried he'd just come straight back into the side when in reality he's probably no where near good enough.
indierich06 Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 It's not that he's not good enough, like many people would have you believe, it's that he probably wouldn't fit in with this quick passing, fast paced Leicester City side. In terms of picking out a brilliant pass or reading the game, he's probably one of the best at the club, but he doesn't tend to take one touch too many and slow the game down considerably. Might be a decent option coming off the bench when we actually WANT to slow a game down and retain possession, but I can't see why NP would put him straight back into the side after such a long layoff when the current midfield is performing admirably. I imagine the loan deal is to get him back up to match fitness, he's more than good enough for League 1.
The Don Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 didnt wellens used to drive in with Gally - at least they can car share
The Don Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Bloody Pearson and his favourites Pearson lives in Sheffield, now they can come round for tea after training!
Jace Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 didnt wellens used to drive in with Gally - at least they can car share Wasn't there a thread on here about a year ago where some guy reckoned Gally and Wellens almost ran him over speeding around Leicester?
Libertine Dream Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Leave the squad looking small. I imagine its just for fitness, lrobably requested to with his bestest friend.

KFS Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 If Danns departs we're going to be looking a bit thin!
blueharmie Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 If Danns departs we're going to be looking a bit thin! Quite literally thin !
Ric Flair Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Good move, he needs match practice big time as an unfit Wellens isn't anywhere near good enough for this level. If he does well there and comes back then he might still have something to offer us.

If he does well there and comes back then he might still have something to offer us. Good move indeed. Needs to be first team fit before weighing up what to do with him. I'm unaware of our midfield availability in the development squad though and if this was a temp-to-perm deal then Drinky, King & James competing for 2 spaces in the second half of the season when injuries kick in and take a little longer to recover from is a bit thin for a challenge to the automatics spots IMO. On the other hand... a lean squad is highly competitive & there's no disenting noises from the stands or more likely these days on Twitter
foxesfan1989 Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Bet him and his pal Gally can have all sorts of fun in training, moaning about Nige.
Guest Col city fan Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Does this finally put to bed 'Pearson has favourites'? Bet it don't.....
cc_star Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Who the hell can I blame once he's gone??? Blame him for going
Babylon Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Does this finally put to bed 'Pearson has favourites'? Bet it don't..... No, because the nature of football management means you have to pick the players you think are best suited to the job. ie. Your favourites. Every manager in the history of football has had his favourite players. That's why they sign them and that's why they play them.
foxesfan1989 Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 How long is this loan for? Stringer didn't say but I read a Sheffield journo describe it as "short term". So a month i'm guessing, possibly until Jan.

Your favourites. Every manager in the history of football has had his favourite players. That's why they sign them and that's why they play them. I getcha... But you know what I meant.. The allegation that Pearson plays his 'favourites' over players who are 'better', because he don't like them... Etc
ousefox Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Bet he does well there, hopefully come back the player he was a couple of seasons ago.
marbelladave Posted 1 October 2012 Posted 1 October 2012 Bet he does well there, hopefully come back the player he was a couple of seasons ago. Does Jesus live in Sheffield?
