Thanks! The state of journalism these days. I'm not really sure how much we can trust these.
I'm really curious since Ole has been gone, who are these untouchables / or droppables that the media are alluding to? I can only think of DDG, MCT to an extend and Ronaldo but everyone else has been drop, sub, rested.
Most have been given a chance and sadly not doing so well. Honestly after watching RR's interview about us making bad decisions, 'escorting' opposition players to our half, and he talked about the Wolves goals scored by an unmarked player. I don't even think the issue is tactics as the coach clearly knows the issue.
On the other hand, I can understand the motivational issues with these players, they have been under a lot of abuse from fans, ex players, media. Ole, Carrick from all accounts are really popular with them and all left in space of a month. I'm sure there are some impact to their motivation and mood. But enough to cause a mutiny?! Just lazy journalism.
The fact is we are not playing well, opponents found how to deal with us this season, our top performer is off form and for some reason we can't make simple passes. Probably 1-2 fringe player leaking unhappiness to the press and this got blow up out of proportions by the media.
I'm curious to see if the reported unhappy players will jump from 17 next week. it goes any higher we won't need to speculate who is unhappy anymore. We just need to discount the one that is smiling.
