Yelevats Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Surely they should be trying to sell him and replace with a younger more dynamic player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 By that time he will be 6th choice IMO. It's not a big deal. We've shown we can find players an exit door via the loan route. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikejaxer Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Don't get the hate. He's not the best player but he's been good under Howe. He'll be a squad player going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I'm concerned Ritchie might have something similar, didn't they get the deals at the same time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelevats Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 If Ritchie does it should be and should have been to shift them both this summer to ensure they don’t trigger new deals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I’d really like us to have someone with a decent turn of pace and a great engine to protect the back 4. That aside, Shelley’s touch and passing range is absolute quality. If only he was a bit better tactically and really knew what space to occupy to deter the opposition he’d be very very useful indeed. I don’t think he’s slower than Fabinho and probably as strong, they might even have a similar range of passing but Fabinho just holds the position better. It’s the little movements I think. The steps here and there that actually put the opposition off from trying to pass through you. It’s probably too late in Shelvey’s career to learn that tbh. Still, you never know, he might have an epiphany and transform. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 That's a bit annoying. Definitely think like Lascelles he is fine for another year - but the one after is possibly a bit much. This would prevent a natural departure point of his contract ending and require us to try and shift a 31 year old next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) Reality like all clubs who get taken over / the new regime has to deal with the old one’s oversight. I sense, just like Lascelles, and more so because Jonjo says often m he knows we will sign better players, that he is just here to play when called upon and will happily be a squad member of this ambitious club and play his role. He’s had a a great mentality since Howe has been here. He’s apparently as class as Jamaal off the pitch in the dressing room, so I’m fine with it. I’d rather he naturally be moved on but all good. Shit happens. Edited July 18, 2022 by Kanji Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Seems fairly likely that we would have offered him another year anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave s Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 at the moment he’s needed, even if he spends half the season on the bench, he wouldn’t be the worst sub we could have.. he does a job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I have no doubt there would be takers for him next summer, also. All the signs I've seen are that he wants to play ball with the club and it's eventual direction, so I'm not upset by this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) He's not the same player under Eddie, he works and ticks the ball along. There's a lot less daft glory balls, and if his work off the ball drops, he'll be dropped. He's fine in this squad under this manager, he's not a Bruno obviously, but for now as we build for the future he's a decent experienced player.
