I thought Wijnaldum looked invisible for Holland when we played them as well.

He was against Ireland too. He's a talented footballer that spends most of the time not wanting to have any influence on the game. That's why I dislike him. And also his comments after the season ended

I'm over the grudges. We got rid of Colo and Saylor and I'm happy. The rest more or less will add to our promotion push - esp guys like Sissoko and Gini. Rafa will only field them if their heads are on right, if not, he'll sit them - he's not afraid of that. I trust our manager and whatever he decides to. These long grudges are unhealthy.

Played most of the season under the hopeless McClaren.

 

 

For this reason alone, I would be willing to give any player another chance ( except colback), providing they express they are willing,- if not- Ta ra.

Looked world class for about 70 seconds per game. While Sissoko grew in the last month or so under Rafa, Wijnaldum didn't do much.

 

One of the most talented player we've had in ages but about 5% as consistant as HBA..

 

Got to laugh at the Liverpool fan I read expecting a "physical presence in the middle".

1st year in a new country and completely different more physically demanding league, thrown into a horrific coaching set up and team with zero morale.

 

Think he would have shown his class here in time and certainly will at liverpool. There is far too much go for the jugular and scapegoating here when there could have been plenty of reasons at play.

 

Regardless the end result is the same, he wasnt consistently good enough, so I understand some hesitancy, just not the pitch forks coming out for the witch hunt. If we had stayed up half the OTT posters would be fawning over his potential and have the opposite reaction to selling.

Don't want Flanagan. He's so ugly he hurts my eyes.

 

What kind of post is this?

 

I thought Flanagan was great two years ago and could have been in the England team for the World Cup. But he's played like five games since then so it'd be a huge risk. As a footballer, he seems very intelligent.

I remember that good Flanagan, so what happened last year?

Gary Lineker used to be invisible for England as well until he scored.

 

Didn't play in midfield or on the wings though

The game's moved on a lot since then. Considering Wijnaldum has played anywhere from holding midfielder to left wing yet still scored 11 goals is good reason why we'll demand a premium for him. How many goals did £25m rated striker Troy Deeney score when playing solely as a striker for Watford?

Thought he looked invisible for Holland, too. He seems to need to be the main focus in order to be most effective. Anywhere else and he won't really be doing anything. If he does go Liverpool, it'll be between him and Coutinho for that free roaming 10 spot and they already have Mane as the winger/striker, so dunno where he fits it.  He'd be better off at Spurs IMO.

 

I doubt we'll keep hold of him. I feel like Rafa could find a better replacement anyway once we're back in the Prem.
