ohmelads Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Had actually forgotten he was still at our club. Our striking options are so limited and we have so many fixtures that it's not impossible he'll get minutes this season, especially if we're unlucky with injuries. You have to wonder what he's done to not even be part of our pre-season while we're paying him big money and there's just three forwards on the books. He could be just shite but we have harboured many crap players in the past without excluding them altogether. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Out of interest how do you know him Menace? IIRC you are in your early twenties and live quite a distance away from Newcastle (Coventry?) so it's interesting how you personally know some Spanish lad who has spent maybe a couple of years in England.

Cajun Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Just assume he isn't good enough. Hasn't impressed in any of his loans from what I have read on here, seen a few mention a bad attitude too which won't help. We haven't exactly been overloaded with top class strikers since he has been here (probably in our best situation now which says it all) so it does seem to point to just not good enough, especially given how many managers he has played under. The Villa game obviously rules out this 10 game clause thing as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Villa game obviously rules out this 10 game clause thing as well. Seems plausible, though what I don't get is if he just isn't good enough, why he isn't even training anymore. Just seems weird, Obertan for example has looked awful at times but still trains every week. Think there has to be more to it than him just lacking talent.

Toondave Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Any substance to the rumours that part of the deal we signed him on included a payment based on appearances? I mean he might be shit, but we've had a lot of shit at the club since we signed him playing a head of him. He was loaned out for harewood, fokin harewood. As daft as it sounds considering the wage he's on, I sort of feel sorry the lad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThievingMagpie Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Never got a proper run out. I hope he finally gets his chance, don't care if he moves on after this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 IF he can help us this season, then great. If not, so be it - he'll be gone - but it would be about time he showed up to play for us so he can continue on somewhere else for the sake of his football career. And yes, I completely forgot about this guy as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Why would anyone need to be told when to go in to where they work? And if for any reason there was any ambiguity, surely you just fucking ask someone? You don't sit in your pants playing FIFA because nobody told you when to go in ffs. They don't train at the same time every day, depends on fixtures, international breaks etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
