Yorkie Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 My guess is that he's been sat down and is being discreetly hammered with an intense regimen to get him up to speed fitness wise. Knock in training when we're not training sounds a bit dubious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Not all his fault but been such a poor signing so far. Given the age profile and cost probably our worst of the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhog63 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 In some respects, based on the N-O intel and nothing else, having him being beasted might mean he comes storming back in when we need him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logical explanation is that the combination of: having no pre-season, a really bad injury (the first in his career), and entering a pretty dysfunctional team - has knackered any prospect of him coming flying out the traps. More logical than he's simply become a bad player overnight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Feel like that adds to the theory mind. Tuesday is basically a pre-season game. Shitshow in Man City semi, spend a fortnight doing some intense fitness stuff, target the Qarabag dead rubber in two weeks' time. Hopefully can be a turning point for him.

Nobody Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Nowt wrong with admitting we probably rushed him back without getting him back to full fitness because Wolte was desperate for a rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s got to be along these lines hasn’t it. Take him out the firing line and do some proper work with him, meaning he didn’t have to do all the travelling involved with the last few weeks too.
