An Away Move Posted 14 May Share Posted 14 May On 12/05/2024 at 00:14, Aleksz said: I don’t think Alves will be out on loan either. I think the amount he’s been involved in the celebrations despite not making an appearance speaks volumes for how much he’s going to be deemed a first team squad player moving forward. Me neither. Rodgers was going to play him in the first team before that thug at Wolves decided to assault him. Maresca is a fan too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did have a lad named Chituru Odunze, has received a call up to the USA national senior men's team to be on the bench. 21 years old, surprised we let him go. From all accounts he was progressing well with the academy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely talented player, who unfortunately I’m told, had a injury that took a while to recover from. Unlike others who received full support and were afforded the opportunity to return to play some games at the end of the current season. He was not. Even though he was ready to do so. Surely every player should receive the same return from Injury assistance? Or maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so when they are injured, Over seas and away from their Family. These are essentially young vulnerable Children. As no one has answered my question I take it we don't have a Liaison Officer. Which reflects really badly on the Club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are totally wrong, The Club has every responsibility to look after and protect these young players. Even more so when they are stuck in accomodation on their own Day after Day recovering from injury. Do you have any idea what that does to ones Mental health. This is exactly why the Club should make sure that they learn another Skill because we know how how risky a career Football is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody said it’s not a competitive career path, but clubs have a duty of care to all players. Not just the select few. No wonder players have little or no loyalty to clubs. It even happens to those in the first team. So don’t comment when you don’t have all the information. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what their qualifications are in this area, but in the case of the young player it seems they both fell below the standard required . And he's not the only player to comment on their treatment by the Club especially when injured. Some of the Senior players have mentioned similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rorab Posted 17 May Share Posted 17 May I can't remember which player it was, but a few seasons back wasn't there someone we had loaned out mentioning that absolutely no-one at the club had kept any sort of contact or dialogue with them whilst out on loan? It does feel like there are areas we lack sometimes when it comes to structural organisation and care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
