Makes me sick how we allowed all these fucking players to go and before you pep apologists say it isn't peps fault, well it fucking was and it is.
Don't disagree but the player(s) only go if they either want to because they don't see themselves getting the game time and / or it suits us. I rated Delap he was raw and could put himself about but he's not replacing Haaland and as we are never playing 2 up top, hes never playing. Pep wants a small squad with players able to play multi roles. It's fucking killing us now due to injuries so that small squad is on him. We are seeing some of these youngsters thrive elsewhere as they are given the chance that we couldn't or wouldn't but what pisses me off more is that we replace them with higher priced lesser quality
Palmer only asked to go on loan and it was US that told him to leave properly.
Is it not up to us as a club to convince the promising kids, and any other player we value, that this is the best place for them?
We have a “oh you wanna go, okay” attitude with senior players and it seems the same for the kids.
It needs to change because at the moment Delap, Palmer, Rogers, Harwood-Bellis are having better seasons than a lot of our lot.
