Sunbury Fox Posted 2 January 2022 Share Posted 2 January 2022 (edited) 42 minutes ago, KFS said: Still early days for him to turn it around obviously… but what I don’t get is how Man C can scout him extensively and the manager have a word in his ear, clearly want the player etc. Yet it’s come to benching him every week? Mahrez struggled in his first year at Man City too. Going from being the star in one team to being just a small cog in another team is tough at the best of times, but when you layer on the fact that you have to learn a very different way of playing at Man City it is a really challenging.

Duquesne Whistle Posted 2 January 2022 Share Posted 2 January 2022 Lukaku dropped from the Chelsea squad. Seriously, I don't know where players get off these days. Paid huge sums to play football, supported through injuries (and covid infections) and spouting off to some media outlet about not being happy to be a 'bit part' player. Everyone is allowed to have an opinion, but some opinions are best not thrown out in public. Tuchel seems to divide opinion on here, but deserves some praise for removing the player from the squad. Rotten apples and all that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 2 January 2022 Share Posted 2 January 2022 Yes, it's probably a statement of intent from Tuchel but he's spent weeks moaning about how few players he's got then deliberately leaves one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Ham have built a great squad over the last few years, recruitment is the most important factor in success. I know Moyes didn't win anything at Everton but I always felt he built a good squad there/he overachieved with players that he was getting from lower PL sides and Championship sides such as Cahill, Baines, Yakubu. On top of the likes of Fellaini, Arteta etc coming from abroad. He seems to be doing the same now. He's brought in Bowen, Soucek, Coufal, Benrahama, Dawson, Zouma... it's similar to the type of players he was getting in at Everton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s good at bringing in physically robust players to play a certain way. For example, I saw him absolutely berating Coufal on the sidelines yesterday when he dared to question the system Put it this way, if the arrogance of Man U hadn’t driven him away they’d not be in the shambles they are currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was left with a terrible team at Manchester United, that had overachieved with what they had. He was never given adequate time to build that squad back up. Albeit, he didn’t help himself. Anyone following Alex Ferguson was destined to fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmono84 Posted 2 January 2022 Share Posted 2 January 2022 Can’t stand Villa. Get some many cheap free kicks and then Ramsey going down for a head ’injury’ whilst Brentford were attacking. Officials should make a player sub for 10 mins if he stays down for treatment following a head injury. Will cut this cheat out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
