Flip Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Gime him a week off and then give him the armband again. Plays better with it than without it clearly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) Let's get one thing clear - he is an elite player that has played his part in our transformation and been at the forefront of it to get it to this very point However I am not sure he has much left in the tank to be able to bring that level of performance consistently and the decline is starting to show. I think it would be in our best benefit to start phasing him out slowly by end of the season and have him as a squad member rather than a guaranteed starter.

The Prophet Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 He's obviously not in a good space at the moment. He'll be back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sempuki Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 He's done a lot of good but he's been a liability recently. It's sad as he's obviously a decent bloke doing his best. Needs a rest but I doubt he'll get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

et tu brute Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 (edited) Needs to spend a spell on the bench as his mistakes have been horrific.

Chris_R Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Form is temporary, class is permanent. He's having a bit of a shitter at the moment, but he's been magnificent since he signed. He'll come good again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Butcher Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 He's just played too much football over the last 18 months imo. Mentally shot. Never had a proper break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 There's something not right with him man. Looks pale and gaunt, he's either ill or has some shit going on. Never for one minute should have been taking that penalty like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBottle Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Got to start Livramento when all are fit. Trippier needs some time out - poor sod looks cooked. I’m fucking annoyed still with that soft shite goal at the end, but he’s clearly not right atm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a typical response to be honest, the first part of my comment clearly shows I rate him and what he's done for us thus far, he is elite, but you can't look at the level of mistakes he's made recently as well as his age and not think by start of next season him being 34 its time to have him as a squad player rather than a guaranteed starter.

Mattoon Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 How do you go from being one of the best RBs in the world to one of the worst in 4 games?? Solely responsible for tonight's result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I hadn’t seen any of this match and turned on just after the first penalty. Dunno what happened with Trippier prior to that but as he stepped up it was written all over his face he was going to miss. Clearly looked absolutely not up onto it in terms of mindset.

Start phasing him out?!?! He's one of the best RBs in the league man! Howe obviously didn't want him to play but he came on halftime probably as Krafth isn't fit enough to play the full 90mins. He's had a nightmare of a mont, absolute shitter but he's still a class act and I'm sure he will bounce back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Tripps stats were the best in all the leagues a couple of months back. A player doesn't decline that quickly - he just needs a rest. A proper rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 We have Timo to play right back, if he needs a break he should be getting it. Its insane to be playing something who is either not physically or mentally (or both) fit to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWMag Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 Let’s not forget this poor form has happened after he was released early from the England squad, wasn’t that for personal reasons? who knows what’s going on but could have issues playing on his mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I love Tripps and I've no doubt he'll get out of the rut he's in. He's become a liability at the mo though who's been directly responsible for several goals now. He needs to get through this, he hasn't become a poor player.
