Lamela

I’m far from his biggest fan, but can someone please tell me what he’s done to deserve being dropped and benched for three consecutive games? His current form more than warrants a start.

Poch choosing Dele over both him and Lucas against Bayern was outrageous, I’m surprised more hasn’t been made of it.

It can hardly be good for team spirit when decisions like that are made, I’d be livid if I were Lamela.

On the subject of strange treatment of players why on earth wasn't Llorente given another year?

He wanted to stay, Parrott is nowhere near ready and age wasn't an issue as he never had any pace. He did more than enough in the second half of last season to earn it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He was but turned down the contract we offered. Substantially less than the 100k he was on before
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Presumably Napoli coughed the dosh (as we should of done)?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's not pretend Llorente was anything other than an OK squad player. He was all right, nothing more.

Maybe I'm just jet lagged and pi55ed off than I wasted 2 days & a load of $$ going to watch my team get humped 7-2
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At least you was in that beautiful stadium though mate
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its Fantastic.. Its defo raised the standard for stadium design. Its almost "too nice". I would imagine opposition players & fans must love it too Just gonna take time for the players to adjust to it. I never believed it was gonna become a fortress overnight

At this point its just shifting chairs around the deck of the Titanic. I don't think Poch has a clue what his best team is, I don't think the players know if Poch is committed. Other than Kane I really don't care who starts, I'm totally underwhelmed by all of them.... Bored of watching the same old players, do the same old things, playing unimaginative football & losing or pi55ing away good positions
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Harsh on Son.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Whatever.... I think you get my point... No point keep blowing smoke up these players ar5es, they've been facking useless for months

Money..... ask Levy. I have a horrible feeling we paid him a lot (100K) for a guy that sat on the bench a lot and was old as dirt. Can't really kill Levy for that one

The value of his goal that sent us through against City and his late winner against Watford (draw and no cl) would have comfortably paid his wages for another season. I'm normally in Levys corner but if this came down to wages he was wrong, like I said he earned it.

Players aren't being treated with the respect they deserve, Moura in the cl final, Lamela getting dropped and Llorente leaving. No wonder Poch has lost the dressing room.

i think that if poch didn't make bizarre decisions over and over again then it would be questioned, but as it is we all just accept that a lot of what he is doing at the moment doesn't make any sense, so don't bother to even raise it.

we all assumed Lamela was left out v Southampton so that he was fresh for Bayern.

so brining another player into a squad that's already clearly too big for poch to manage

You sure ? I thought his dad was just upset about Lamela smashing his missus. Did Gaza join in the smashing or did he give Lamela a blue eye?
