Anels replacement

[Nick Jansky]

Like Chelsea have with Sterling while paying him £200k a week or whatever it is.

£350k a week. Insane.

Have you ever known anyone be named publicly as a bad egg?
Do you think Wilder would do that, or even hint that given he’s considered a saleable asset?

The “what happens on the training ground/behind closed doors, stays there” saying is very true when you can’t afford to sully the name of someone you can’t afford to just let walk away for nowt/put on gardening leave….like Chelsea have with Sterling while paying him £200k a week or whatever it is.

His public displays of disgust while playing for the team last season spoke volumes, and his downing tools on repeated occasions on the pitch make it clear how he feels about being at the club. That will rub off in some way- therefore a bad egg.

And then there was the seemingly deliberate sending off …………

It seems he may well be genuinely ill.

But still, we know he wants to go, we know he’s a bad egg to have in the camp when his pet lip is out so I hope we have made plans for it.

I suspect we intend to sell but are saying the right things at this point to get as much as possible. However there is likely a club lined up for him and he wants it, and they are sitting tight until the deadline day knowing we will take the offer in the end just to move him on.
Reckon he will go for £10m plus add ons.

So we simply must have players ready to come here at a moments notice. I really hope we have.

I doubt very much that he was genuinely ill.

Wilder made a pointed reference to how some players can down tools and act unprofessionally when a bid comes in.
It felt obvious to me that one of Anel or Souza would be missing and so it transpired.

The cover up, I'm guessing, is to attempt to avoid weakening our hand in negotiations.

Anel absolutely is a bad egg. I don't need to be at the training ground through the week to see that, it's perfectly clear from the stands when the chips are down.
