I hope we do. He's shite
Couldn't agree more Mase
I’ll never understand the hate directed at him. He’s a professional who showed up every time we needed him, cost us next to nothing, never complained, and delivered whenever called upon, within his role. He was always meant to be a backup keeper, and he did that job with quiet consistency, including, whether people like it or not, making key saves at Spurs that helped us win the title.
I’ll always be grateful for that. And if he ends up at the Rags, I’ll be gutted, just like I would be for Ederson, or any other player who's worn our shirt with commitment. That includes Nunes. Loyalty runs both ways.
It's not hate PP
It's simply that he isn't good enough for a team who is gunning for titles.
As with any player who has played for us and reaches a point where they move on for whatever reason; not good enough, injury prone, retires, new challenge, wants to play more, homesick, etc, then we thank them for what they have done and wish them well
I agree, he needs to go, no doubt about it. I’d let go of at least 8–9 players myself. But calling him shite is way over the top. He delivered exactly what he was brought in to do, maybe even a bit more. He did his job, quietly and professionally. What I absolutely wouldn’t do is sell him to the Rags or to the Scousers. Not in a million years.
Same goes for Gundo, to be honest. He got crucified last year, but he was the only one brave enough to call out the flaws in our tactics. Now everyone’s in meltdown when he starts a game, but let’s not forget, before his move to Barcelona, he was top 3 on the team sheet without question.
I’m all for shipping players out or reducing minutes for those not performing. But realistically, that won’t happen. Still, the very least we can do is not hand over our players to the two clubs that would love nothing more than to see us extinct. Send them every club you want, but not those two red cunts.
