Nobody Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Better than Abeid? How can anyone tell either way? I can. Jonas is dreadful, Abeid might not be, so he goes on the bench. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Depends what you want. An ineffective winger who offers a bit of cover for his full back, or a young talent just off the back of a good season. Albeit in a very poor league. We know what Jonas can do and how he's detoriated from being an already average player. I'd rather not play him again and have his contract clause come into action and see him here a season longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 TBF to Jonas, the last time I saw him play (and I think it was his last game for us), he came on as a a sub for the last 20 minutes away to Cardiff when we were under a lot of pressure and he played well helping out the defence and we managed to hold out for a win. An expensive squad player maybe but he would certainly have been of use in that role in other games last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think there's a somewhat universal agreement that Jonas has done his best work for this club already, and that letting him go was maybe even overdue when he went to Norwich. What I cannot accept is the treatment of a professional and NUFC player of his stature. Jonas' limitations and faults are not things he can be held responsible for, it's just the player he is and has always been. A whole-hearted, hard worker who never really let us down in terms of commitment, unlike many others. Even when played out of position, he's never, ever complained or shown us a sign of being unhappy. The fact that his reputation and affilitation with most supporters has taken a turn is the manager's fault, who kept picking him when we were in desperate need of something different. This situation is symptomatic of the club in its current state, ostracizing and forcing him out without any touch of class whatsoever. The respect he should have earned from the owner and other people in the club after pulling us out of The Championship and leading by example during some of the most tense years in the club's recent history. That doesn't matter. A player is, much like a fan, viewed as nothing but a commodity, a broken toy being put in the basement if it's not sold.

Guest plumsteadmag Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Yep looks like unfortunately it wasn't up to the high standards demanded by someone who has bothered to post over 39,000 times. Cheers for the informative response though. To the rest though yes fair point on abeid playing well in Greece. When abeid went out on loan at the start of last season I think there would have been no argument about who you would select. He has served the club well and always appeared (well to me at least) to be a good professional, surely he deserves another chance (like obertan, abeid etc) to at least prove himself in training. The Norwich move didn't work out but he hardly played for them... Maybe hughton realised his legs had gone too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallace Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Unless Jonas has requested it, I don't understand how he is not even training at the club. Even Ben Arfa has been allowed back at the club. Although, didn't he have some personal issues that meant he spent some time back in Argentina last season? If those still exist, then it probably is his decision not to come back. If he is not going to play and he can't find a club. maybe it suits him to see out his final year back home. I just wish this club would show some respect to the players. Even when they leave, there is normally a curt one liner to say they have signed for x club where other clubs write lovely things, thank the player and wish them the best in the future.

Ste Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 It is weird that he's being allowed to train alone in Argentina. You'd think he'd still be kept around the squad unless he's being disruptive, which in fairness I can't see. They must be hoping for an offer from a South American club and with him being there it'll save time flying out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only conclusion was that's he rejected a payoff to rid him of his contract but fair play I wouldn't mind thousands of £ a week to swan about on the other side of the world.

loki679 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 He always gave 100% no matter what he was asked to do. Fact is he just wasn't good enough for this level the last couple of seasons but he doesn't pick himself. Model professional, good servant to the club and deserving of much better treatment and more respect than he's currently being shown by Pardew and co.

I really regret sending him on loan. I regret it so much I packed his bags, kicked him out of the training ground, sent him to a different continent and told him to never ever come back.
