I don’t think anyone disputed they could be off did they? You’ll struggle to find a player in the squad who doesn’t fancy a move. That's not what I meant and you know it. That’s all the manager has confirmed.

Is it ok to not really think the players are cunts, but also think the manager has got this one spot on? An existing manager may well carry on playing them for continuity, but a new manager needs to look to build a team he thinks he can continue with and work out what is best going forward. Why would you even bother wasting time for a few games? Sure you might continue to play someone who is absolutely brilliant, but neither of them are quite that, even if I did really rate them both. Sure it's possible other players may go too, but he obviously felt it was nailed on for these two. I suspect the two deals were long in the pipeline anyway, these things don't just happen in the space of a couple of weeks. I think that’s fair. If we end up going down by, say, the number of points lost against Blackburn when we thought Ryan Woods was our best bet against Bradley Dack we might wonder, but all signs certainly point to it being the right move and hopefully we’re gaining momentum, which is very much to the manager’s credit.

So why did he undermine himself by not being straight? It isn't as if he was protecting a large fee by spinning yarns about NDiaye at Cardiff and Etebo and his training habits. One we only got a 150k loan fee for and the other one god knows. Coming out and saying they didn't want to play for us was hardly going to put off a couple of clubs for loans was it? All he's done is make himself look stupid and untrustworthy. Stupid and untrustworthy? I was thinking more like tactful and diplomatic myself.

Fair enough. Just glad that the manager has confirmed what most people suspected. I don’t think anyone disputed they could be off did they? You’ll struggle to find a player in the squad who doesn’t fancy a move. But these two have said they want to leave that's the difference.

Sorry to see this guy go. Liked him. For once I thought we had bought a player who would at least bring us a good profit if he moved on. We can’t seem to win in any way at the moment.

“In what way were they not fighting for the cause” (Wimmer, Imbula, Ndiaye, etc.?) - you must be blind. As for Etebo and Ndiaye, they asked for a move! But, of course they really wanted to stay and fight for the cause, didn’t they. I prefer to recognise what MON saw in him. And, so far as Wimmer and Imbula: where do we start on them!!! I wasn't talking about Wimmer and Imbula, but Ndiaye's performances this season were as battling and strong as anyone's. Their performances on the pitch showed plenty of commitment and if you don't think pretty much anyone in the squad would prefer to 'stay and fight' if the chance to leave for brighter things presented itself, I've got some magic beans I'd like to sell you. I presume you'll be giving the same stick to Joe Allen if he ends up at West Ham? You haven't explained how they're mercenaries. Well I WAS talking about Wimmer and Imbula. Ndaiye played well, but then he didn't have a productive impact in terms of results, like many. Perhaps you should have tried to peddle some of your magic beans to him; he might then have been persuaded to honour his contract. But then that would have been unrealistic because, he like Etebo simply wanted out at the end of the day. To me, players that sign up for 4/5 years then don't want to stay and fight, command little respect. Anyway, if you are still struggling with my points, take one of your beans - it might help you. I don't intend to waste my time further and I don't need your sarcasm either.

You said people were subscribing to conjecture and you would not rush to make a judgment.Etebo has said he asked to leave,and now you are trying to make out that most of the players fancy a move.How do you actually know that?

No I'm not telling you that as you well know.I am asking you how you know that other players fancy a move as you don't subscribe to conjecture.There is also a massive difference between asking for a move and fanciful thought,however your intransigence seems to blind you to that fact.

Fucking club is run by a bunch of incompetent amateurs! If we have to offload then we must have been able to get a buyer for Etebo after some of the press and comments from other managers. Instead we deprive ourselves of one of our best players for no real financial gain other than probably 50% of his wages. Imbula, Wimmer, N'Diaye and Etebo all on loan, all doing nothing to enhance their saleability and you can bet we are paying a good 50% (or around £80k per week!) of their wages. Scholes doesn't need a pay rise he needs sacking and as for Coates jnr from all accounts he should just be sat in the corner with a dunces hat on and ignored. Fucking idiots...... Having already mentioned Afobe after your post we forgot about bauer too. With that many on loan we paid hard cash for bauer I'd forgot about. Bauer Afobe Wimmer Badou etebo Imbula How much money did that lot cost £50m? £60m? and the best we can come up with is loan deals, all 6 of them. £60m out on loan running down their contracts. Meanwhile we are out priced by a club in Scotland for a striker not even in the top 2 clubs of the scottish division meaning they arnt flush with cash

Also, how do the club know that we couldnt have got cash for etebo when they loan him out with still 20+ days of january to go.
Can we recall him if a cash offer comes in?

Etebo playing on Sky channel 435. His side winning 3-0 at HT. Didnt realise they were that high up the league? From the basement of division 2 to the top 5 in La Liga. We really should have used him whilst he was here. Instead of Jordan "won a raffle" Cousins.

Is it me or is Peter not pulling enough tree stumps for people to exercise the purchase option. Another problem for MON to sort out.
