Ademola Lookman

[TheBigIguana]

You keep making posts saying you're going to drop this, and yet you continue to reply. Please start a thread on one of the non-football forums and everyone who wants to discuss this with you can go there.

I didn't think the first one was clear so I made one more.

As for the football side of things we have completely and utterly destroyed Lookmans career through gross mismanagement and he should be sold to RBL while he's still young enough to grow into something. He isn't the first player to get frustrated by not playing and he won't be the last. If we are more interested in having hard working but limited players like Bernard, Walcott and Bolasie and not trying to push players like Vlasic and Lookman to their full potential we will never reach the top again. Imagine if Spurs had dropped Alli the first time he acted like a tit or got mad at Kane when he wanted a loan to improve and play. We are botching things.

This is a ridiculous exaggeration.

This is a ridiculous exaggeration.

Time will tell I suppose but the only time a manager was honest with Lookman and both told him he was a part of the team and played him enough for that to be true he was as good as any youth player in Europe. When Koeman and Marco told him he could work his way in and never gave him more than 2 or 3 starts he didn't perform to that level. The Bundesliga isnt that bad of a league either. The club has messed this up. And they look set to possibly do it with Vlasic and Onyekuru too.

Ademola Lookman is still searching for acceptance two-and-a-half years on from his Everton debut

From the start of your use of the rat nickname for Ademola I've been put off a bit by it but I also see all your other posts around here so I kind of let it go. But then to come and post something dismissive of racism, which is undeniably a huge issue in football generally, while also calling a black player a filthy animal, regardless of what he has done or has been perceived to do, is something I'm not a big fan of.

What the hell is this???

Is @TheBigIguana an alias of this thread sponsor?

What the hell happened in here then? The lad isn’t very good and wants a move. This is all.

Please don’t think I’m being racist here, but you are dead weird.

Rooney is the biggest rat of all and got called it often. And rightfully so the rat...

This is a really strange stance you are taking here.

I mean, none of us actually know what he is like

This could be character assassination for all we know

To what end I couldn't say. Maybe to take the edge off if we do indeed sell him?

 

[Furey1878]

Insist he stays and let the player decide come January, we’ll still get a decent fee for him.

Rossco is a rat. Rat has no affiliation with skin colour. Get a grip.

We've asked the England Under 21s manager to criticise his attitude and drop him so that we can 'take the edge off' selling him? It could be that I suppose, or it could be Occam's razor, who knows.

"Rossco" is kind of black...
