Displayname Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 With Tino looking rather poor lately it would be a weird timing to sell his backup. But might not be a bad idea if we can squeze out a few extra millions because of his name. Personally think he is done at a top level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I thought we looked much better when he came on and we had some semblance of control and passing ability moving forward. Assuming he gave the foul away for the free kick and also looked partly to blame for Muniz getting so free. Would be all for it, TBH. As it does look like his legs have gone/he can’t be arsed defensively. But Tino has been up and down all season. Mainly down of late and whilst I appreciate we need to sell players for PSR purposes. Shifting most of our back ups in one window with no replacements seems a bit of a risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then at least this time next year we won't have the same old faces whinging about us keeping onto players (who cares if they're players who can still do a job for us) Just get rid and leave us with the bare 11 again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 In all honesty, he was only good for us for 1 year. He got injured as soon as he arrived, the 1st full season where we finished 4th he was great. The 2nd season, with 3 games in a week, it was too much for him, he could only put in 1 good performance out of those 3 games, and we saw the mistakes and sloppiness that he made. It could be argued that he hasn’t made an impact at all this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

black_n_white Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 If there’s a deal to be done I would reluctantly do it, we won’t get another chance of a money deal for him otherwise. Howe will massively disagree though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe will massively disagree though. We really need to move on though. The likes of Ritchie, Dummett being held by the club long past their sell by date is just a warning of how those players being held on to will damage us. We still have the likes of Hayden on our books. I honestly think that come the summer, we maybe best off just having everyone pre-takeover up for sale, and just concentrate on squad players.

He wouldn’t be near the squad if that was the case and he definitely wouldn’t be taking the armband off Bruno. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Sell and go with Kraft as backup. We could start integrating the likes of Shahar... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 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.

Ben Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
