Kieran Trippier: has a chance to play against Everton (Howe)


Recommended Posts

I know he's injured but a couple of weeks off won't do him any harm. Might freshen him for the run-in.  

 

Bruno's corners were good on Saturday too.

Livramento offers us a different package, and looks ready to step up. He certainly adds to our ability to counter attack.

 

Tripps is a really good reader of the game, but he's never been the greatest defender. He's looked increasingly vulnerable in that area.

If he only misses Chelsea & Man City it's not a big issue. Probably do him good with a short period out to rest so he can better help us finish the season on a high. Tino with two motm performances coming up.

Kind of agree with others that a rest for Trippier and missing the internationals might do him some good. He’s been playing through a couple of niggles this season as it is. 
 

I do worry a bit about our build up, mind. His forward passing is so important for us and we still often go down that side to progress up the pitch. 
 

Tino much better at carrying the ball, TBF and a really solid 1 v 1 defender.

Was he from Bury itself or Summerseat/Ramsbottom? I used to know someone who dated his brother and assumed he was from the same area. 

He's from Summerseat mate, but Summerseat is a village in Bury. 
 

He went to school in Rammy as well, so all of the above haha. 
 

His brothers are football mad as well. His dad even more so. His dad is also fuckin solid, to put it politely ;D There was a story from when Kieran was with Spurs and he had a party that Dele Alli attended and Alli said something to Kieran’s dad and got gripped. Theres some funny stories but probably not for on here haha.

I’m not concerned about losing Trippier. Rather have all players fit for options, but at least this is a forced hand to look at things different and possibly train different. 
 

Our corners recent games have shown they don’t drop off, and we can speed things up and not need Trippier to jog across the pitch to over hit/under hit a cross no worse than Gordon.

 

Plus on the counter, I’d like to think him holding back and using his experience to anticipate danger would serve us well too, rather than have him on wrong side and end of pitch.

Yep. I might have heard some you haven’t!

On Bayern's offers for him:

 

'I was in New York and I was woken up at 5am saying, “Bayern Munich want to sign you. I was like, “This is a bit random”. I never thought at 33 years old that Bayern Munich would want to sign me, so it was more of a shock to me than anybody.

 

I take it as a compliment. It’s a massive club – I think plenty of other players would have jumped at the chance to go to Bayern, and that's fact. But I've been loyal to the cub and my family is important – travelling to three different countries in three years, it's not really ideal, is it?

 

I got on the phone to the manager straight away and he knows the commitment I've got for the club. I never once tried to force a move out of the club. I'm here now and the owners know the commitment I have shown.'

Not convinced, like. He referenced his family again in an interview about Bayern recently, iirc, talking about how moving young kids a few times in a short space of time isn't ideal. Would seem strange to mention that if his plan was to do it in 4 months' time.
