He's had players with the ball 20yds away and not pressed them at all. Completely different position. Isak can't be chasing down the back 4 for every ball or he will be fucked by half time 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 5386 Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 Even if he doesn't want it, he needs some time off imo. Fuck loads of minutes for us last season in between two summer tournaments, its not sustainable. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with him not giving his all but I don't agree that others are giving their all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The high of Winning a tournament with the U23's a tough physical season, then a low of getting fucked by Southgate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMXXVIII 1296 Posted September 22, 2024 Share Posted September 22, 2024 He's recently had a kid, too. Howe will know what the issues are and sees fit to keep playing him. If he was stropping cos of Liverpool you'd expect he'd get the Fraser treatment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 51926 Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 Breakthrough in contract talks with Mr Huffy according to Hope. Maybe we'll see a sudden uptick in his output. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 24132 Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 Apparently he’s “only” on 60k per week. Well below our top earners and less than he deserves as one of our blue chip players. A longer contract will also strengthen our hand if Liverpool come sniffing again. We’re only five games into a season where most of the team has underperformed. He showed what he can do last season when he was probably our best player. This is good news 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMXXVIII 1296 Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 He's been away with England last few months and all. You can imagine the shite crack about contracts amongst them arseholes wouldn't have helped. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 7829 Posted September 26, 2024 Share Posted September 26, 2024 Players tend to play out of their skin leading up to improved contract then inevitably drop off. He is obviously doing it the other way around. Hopefully. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it’s coming up to pay reviews I’m normally on top of my game not sulking and bringing the company down. I suppose it worked though but if I was his boss then I’d move him on. Shit attitude and not the first time he is showed it since got here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 51926 Posted September 28, 2024 Share Posted September 28, 2024 no offence, but that's the sort of patter where if you turn up to the match and the bloke in front of you is saying it, you're scanning for empty seats elsewhere. "You know yourself this isn't how things work in the REAL WORLD. Do you think you'd get a pay rise if you walked around with a face like a smacked arse at your job?................... I'm asking you a question, Billy." "*Billy reluctantly indulging him* Errr probably not no." "EXACTLY! It stinks!" Where fore art though, empty seat?! Fuck off Billy, that one's mine! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
