Danny Drinkwater and the media

[Berlinfox]

Are there specific reasons why Danny Drinkwater refuses to talk to the media. I'm surprised that the players are not contractually obliged to do so.

[BigWesMorgan]

So he can concentrate on his football.

 

It works...

[MattyFromLE]

Why should he? Scholes never did, did he? I don't want them all to come and tell us what we want to hear / already know. So long as Danny plays how he is - he'll continue letting his football speak for him.

[KFS]

I kind of like it, it's a bit different.

[Des.]

I think he is very much like Paul Scholes in that he doesn't like the attention, he just likes to keep his head down & play his football.

[Fox92]

Just leave him. He's a good professional, and I do think he has a bit of Scholes in him (or Scholes is his hero). The media only twist everything anyway.

[shade]

I find him pretty interesting, I wouldn't mind seeing what he's like behind closed doors. nige described him as a complex character, cracking player though. impeccable.

[foxfanazer]

Not a concern at all for me. Our best player

[FoxTrott]

Find it interesting, Scholes didn't do the whole media circus, did he? Lines drawn?

[Raj]

Remember when he was getting lambasted for making derogatory signs at his own fans many months ago.....leave him as he is...like others have said...it works!

[LCCFox96]

He has always been described as a good professional so if his "complex" character and not talking to the media don't disrupt his performances then we shouldn't be worried that he dosn't speak to the media.

That being said I'd love to see a full feature interview with him and know why he dosn't want to speak to the media. Interesting stuff.

I think this whole thread could be answered in one word and nearly everyone has said it. Scholes

[Mark_w]

I'm sure it's Drinkwater who always sounded incredibly thick when he was talking to Radio Leicester. Has been brilliant for Leicester and frankly I'm delighted that he's going nowhere near a microphone.

[Hirsty The Blue 94]

Is going to have to learn though when he collects the Player of the year trophy at the awards night. 

[Jakemoore]

He can do what he wants while he's playing like this!!

[Unabomber]

He has always been described as a good professional so if his "complex" character and not talking to the media don't disrupt his performances then we shouldn't be worried that he dosn't speak to the media.

An interview with him talking about why he doesn't talk to the media. That's some crazy paradox shit mate.

[johnny the fox]

until he finishes his degree he will speak to nobody..fact.

[Buzzell]

What's the big deal here? If he doesn't want to speak to the media then that's his own choice. He shouldn't be 'contractually obliged' to do so.

[Langston]

One of (if not, definitively) the outstanding players in the division. He's going to be frighteningly good at his peak.

[Corky]

Wouldn't swap him for anyone.

[CountesthorpeFox]

sounds ok here.

[65RosesFox]

It's the same with Dyer.

They don't need to justify why they don't want to be in the media. Leave them to it.

[Out Foxed]

I'm sure it's Drinkwater who always sounded incredibly thick when he was talking to Radio Leicester.

i think it's James.

[lgfualol]

I like it, he's great. 

 

I always find it a lil funny seeing De Laet (especially) and others' weekly "Leicester are focused" articles, then like nothing from Drinky.

You might be thinking of Ben Marshall they both signed at around the same time and he does sound like a dime bar advert star.
