It might in the end help motivate him to get over his mental issues about his hamstrings. He can't continue being a fanny about it and focus on his form if he wants to get his place back in the team.

Apparently shoved into the reserves to face wolves.

 

What has happened to him, he came back pre season either overweight or way  to much muscle on top. Looked a ridiculous shape all bulk and tiny legs.

 

He doesn't run as fast as he used to or put 100% into games because he's not confident in his body. Rafa would rather a lesser player who puts in 100%.

Having watched most of the reserves game last night, there were some good signs, he was running onto chances trying to get in behind, taking pop shots at goal, and even scored a goal that was disallowed for a questionable offside. There was little quality in the reserve side to find him, unlike what he had with Shelvey last seaons, and the game did highlight how little he offers to the team when he's not scoring.

Did he knack himself on that first sprint out to the right?

 

Looked like he did.  He looked lively for the first 5 minutes and then completely did nothing.

:thup: Reckon so.

 

Sad to see. He'll be completely out of favour soon and go in the summer for buttons. It was always going to be tough for him in this division with us not creating so many chances, but I fancied him to battle and do well. Looks like his fitness is hampering him giving it a real go, which is a real shame because he seems like a great lad imo, and was brilliant for us last year.

I'd try and cash in on him in January while he still has pull in the Championship.

 

We won't get anything like the £15m Fulham bid for him.

Yep, shouldn't be on the bench over Mitrovic - he's utterly pointless playing for us in this setup. He had a simple pass to play to Shelvey at the end which would put Jonjo through on goal and he didn't have the quality to play it. Mitrovic finds Shelvey there imo.

 

Gayle only any good in the 6 yard box, almost useless otherwise.

Definitely not but he needs to be front and centre of that shop window, regardless of what we might get for him.

Looks a bit like he can't be arsed.

 

Yep. Really annoys me seeing subs come on and put less effort in than the player that goes off knackered.
