That's a pretty weak response mate, tbf. I'm asking a question about this Drenthe affair and because it doesn;t stack up and cant be neatly answered and stowed away you sidestep the question. It's unbecoming of you LCAB. I always expect a straight response, but here at least I'm getting deflection. You are MUCH better than that.

We have a double standard situation here as well you know: you cant have your cake and eat it. Either there's consistency from the manager and he operates a tight ship or he's let this situation get out of hand and his timing has been all over the shop. I know what my conclusions are from what I've heard so far.

FFS! He's sleeping with the enemy and Moyes not only continues to play him but throws him on in the Derby!

I honestly cant believe I'm reading this.

Whatsmore, if I'm a player like Barkley in that squad I'm thinking to meself: "WTF is goijg on here. Where's my reward for keeping my nose clean and breaking onto the scene as a home grown player? I have to wait in the wings while this ****ing head the ball is indulged?!!"

As I say: this is not a black and white; good v bad issue here.

Aye, overall he isn't really that much of a player. It's just we were so **** when he was in the team early on in the season he was like a shining light. A light which has been put out, for reasons listed amongst the hundreds of posts before this :D

i dont mind him going as long as we get someone exciting in (Ahem) pienaar donovan etc are great, but drenthe had that x factor quality- raw pace,a great shot from distance AND unpredictability(sometimes to his detriment) its the first player we have had like this since limpar/kanchelskis

WHEN will we get another??

But that's just it mate...that's why principles are called principles; because you stick with them come hell or high water. He didn't do that in this case and it's an obvious dent to credibility. Are we really saying that our manager stuck with Drenthe to help pull us (and him) out of the pre-Christmas doldrums...that he'd swallow the pride of the club to allow a player negotiating with Liverpool and taking the piss on training to continue on, no problermo, beacuse we were 13th rather than a few spots up the table?

That cant be justified on any grounds as far as I'm concerned.

I keep going back to the three words: Consistency...Timing...Judgement.

If you think the manager has done him justice on any of those three in this case, then good luck to you.

Therel be other sticks to beat them with Braaaaaaaaaaa ...
 

Dave you're clutching at straws mate; even if he played and didn't get jibbed off it doesn't mean we'd be celebrating a trip back to the Big Smoke, there where 16 other players in that squad on Saturday

The Drenthe situation DID NOT affect the players on the pitch, because once we went 1 up we controlled the remainder of the 1st half and we just got out muscled in the 2nd half. Its football, **** happens dude. You're trying to pin point this on Moyes, the only thing you should be accusing Moyes of is not firing his players up for the 2nd half.

Drenthe is an enigma; he blows out and cold. Blues love him coz he's a nut job and he was something different (a fast paced winger with a fierce shot) when in reality he's a small, stocky, black Peter Beagrie who runs into defenders more times then he goes past them. Yes he has goals and assists, but he's also cost us games and points.
 
who cares about Drenthe. If he is going the RS then just give him so grief next game, more important things like playing MU on sunday.
 
IF he shows his mug on the bench at home, then any attempt to warm up will be met with some straight questions.

I have a feeling that I'll be telling him to take off our shirt as we dont want him in it any more.

someone may even chuck him a rag to put on. stick him on the bench to face the music Moyes, they're a vociferous bunch down by St. Lukes.
