I think he’s completely checked out mentally, which is unacceptable and unprofessional.  Real shame because I think he’s been the best signing of the PIF era, really set the tone.  Shame how it’s ending here for him 


Don’t see that at all on a matchday tbh. He wouldn’t be near the squad if that was the case and he definitely wouldn’t be taking the armband off Bruno.

May as well sell 

 

 

This where we’ve got to be ruthless. Krafth will be a fine back up until the summer.

Aye. He’s a great actor if he’s not arsed. As he is still coaching from the sidelines and then when he is on the pitch. He carries on with his leadership role. 
 

I do think his legs have gone, mind. Which means he’s only going to be good in certain games and situations.

:thup: God forbid a 34 year old just be winding down. Despite all the bollocks spouted about his attitude I don't think there's been a single genuine bit of evidence, has there?

 

He's clearly still a big voice in the team, even from the sidelines. I've caught him speaking to players as he's been warming up on the sideline mid-match. That doesn't scream checked out.

He was helping Tino out from the touchline yesterday in the first half, as he's done many times. Don't see evidence he's checked out at all.

I don't think he's checked out. He may want a move, he may not, but whatever he's continuing to be vocal around the pitch and try his best when brought on. He's just not as fast anymore, that's just life though. 

 

I'd reluctantly take the money, then if he wants to we can bring him back as a coach once he's done playing. He seems to have a lot to offer even when not on the pitch.

Daft this, I could understand selling players for a rebuild if our season was over, we have a small squad anyway but we can't rely on our current first team for the rest of the season, we need back up.

 

Howe is been left in the clarts here

Such a lazy comment to say someone's checked out etc.   if he had, then Howe would not be selecting him in the squad etc.

Staggered people would sell Trips - personally I'd be playing him over Tino - as much as I like Tino he currently adds nothing in the final 3rd.

If the report is right and at the end of the season Galatasaray are willing to come back in then that's the time to do the deal. We've not the biggest squad in terms of numbers or quality. The sales of Kelly and Miggy make good financial sense but it's a slight gamble with Miggy's sale. In defence Botman's only just back from what used to be career ending injury and Lascelles isn't near to full fitness yet. Also the leadership Trippier has brought off the field is going to be key in the run in, especially with our current inconsistency and with a potential cup final if we get past Arsenal I've a feeling we're going to need him.

if he wants to go and Krafth is coming back then fine, I guess. I just don't get why we aren't signing anyone :lol: 

Either we are planning a big summer, or we need to sell to avoid a points deduction and a mad June rush again.

You really still don't get it, with all that's been said about the matter?!
