Vestergaard

I thought he played very well vs spurs too which makes it even more baffling.

Yet in any other profession, if there were some things you weren't happy about with your boss you'd be encouraged to discuss with their superiors.

 

I do have a degree of sympathy with Vestergaard as there was evidently a lot of time and effort spent extending his contract and then we've appointed a manager that doesn't utilise his strengths. Another baffling decision all round.

His superior is cooper, and it’s not really like any other profession. If it’s just a case of not being happy because he’s not being picked then it’s tough.

 

Agree with the 2nd part though - do have sympathy with him in that respect.

No, Cooper is his boss. Cooper's superior is Rudkin and Top.

Sorry I misread your post.

 

If he’s just gone to top about not being picked though he needs to get on with it. Things change quickly in football, could be back in favour again soon…………

Although Jannik lacks pace it is easy to underrate his passing abilities. It seems to me that Cooper won’t risk him getting caught out of position and I wonder whether Ricardo is another one he worries about if he strays forward.

Creative players almost seem to be too much of a risk whilst solid performers like Wilf and Ayew will always feature. Of course there may be roles for different types of players but the balance seems wrong.

Has he fallen out with him or does Cooper just not want to have to allow for his lack of pace? Faes looks more comfortable with Okoli even if Okoli doesn't always convince in possession.

Probably the lack of pace which is annoying because we all saw this coming before he got his new contract.

Coady also lacks pace but isn’t as good in the air and has nowhere near the passing range. People are saying about getting caught out of possession but Justin is caught out every week and cooper has no problem with that

Played decent at Fulham.

 

It's nothing to do with tactics or form or ability. I'd suggest that as a no nonsense, hugely self-confident, say it as I see it danish fella, he's called out Cooper in training

if cooper is his own boss it would explain a lot about the state of the club tbh

I’ve always thought Vestegard was awful in the air considering his obvious advantage 

[KFS]

Would be very interested to see how he and Okoli would partner if we plan to sit deep

[Hales]

There has to be more to this....and Ricardo.....

Yet he continues to play JJ and Ndidi who, regardless of their positioning, contrive to continually give the ball to the opposition for a free hit.
