2-0 up at Chelsea. George Hirst leading the line but not good enough for us. Strange bit of business that. Always felt he never got a chance.
 
Hirst has got 2 goals in 20 apps. He got 7 in the championship. I don’t think we’re missing much really. Daka numbers.
Fair point Shane. Hirst is no Vardy for sure. Just wonder why they persist with Daka.
Has any player who spent time with OH Leuven gone in to make it?
 
Surely because they have players with more potential than ours they're more likely to get them nicked
They will lose a couple for sure, but say they lost a couple more than expected, that will just add to a big pot of money for them to spend on top players for that league. Add to that the manager there is a good pull for players to work under.

RVN seems to have irrational levels of liking for Daka. He waffled on about how much he rated him when he first came into the job.
Persisting with him is doing nobody any favours though.
He really seems like a lovely fella and I don’t like hearing him get abused as it’s not exactly his fault that he’s shit but he needed taking out of the firing line long ago for everybody’s sake.
Has Edouard played a single minute under RVN?
 
How is he not to blame for being shit though??
Train at anything day after day, year after year & any normal human being will get better & better at it. People like him & your wards are a disgrace to their profession

Ability is hard to train.
Does he seem like someone who doesn’t try and doesn’t give a shit?
He’s just out of his depth isn’t he.
Sometimes it just doesn’t work out somewhere and you can still have a solid career elsewhere.
 
But would you prefer to be a great shit house cleaner on 20 grand a year or a crap footballer on 20 grand a week?

It just seems odd that ‘not being able to kick a football into the net’, ‘make correct contact’ and ‘maintain balance’ can be described as ‘not working out somewhere’.
It’s not like the balls are a different shape or the change of altitude in Leicestershire would significantly alter the number of oxygen molecules entering his blood

When you feel panicked because everyone is waiting to groan and abuse you, your ability to do things can potentially be hampered. Whether you’re on £50 or £50k.

Akinbiyi a good example. Awful for us and out of his depth but was a solid championship level player most other places.
 
Maybe the talking up and playing him is building him up to be sold in the summer. Wasn't that long ago that (supposedly) Everton and Bournemouth were sniffing around.
 
and maybe, just maybe the tactic with Vestergaard and Winks is to piss them off so much that they leave before their contracts are up to get them off the wage bill and maybe get some dosh in?
 
But why should he feel panicked, it’s not like everyone has turned on him because he’s turned into shit….. he was shit from day one….when everyone was waiting to cheer him

Think he scored 4 goals on his debut in Europe.
Something has definitely gone badly wrong though.
He had a bit of a headless chicken vibe in turns of aimless running in the early days but I don’t recall him having as poor control or finishing back then as he does now his confidence is shattered.
