@owlstalk Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Out for the rest of the season obviously, but what a different kind of season this lad has had. Last season he was way more dangerous and effective Wonder what changed so much this time round? Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Most obvious thing to say is maybe his fitness wasn't what it should have been. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefdave Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Well, the way he seems to be floating, I'd say he's a bit of a lightweight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 One of a number of our senior players who probably believed Carlos should have gone in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SallyCinnamon Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Getting older simple as that. Coming up for 33. Should have been replaced after Wembley by a quicker younger model. He wasn't. Having said that we got 2 decent years out of him. Been a great signing considering he was a free transfer. Think he was at his best in his first year. Last year he was poor up until January and he starting playing again. Shows up in the big games unlike a lot of the players we've had over the past 2 seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Time to let go at the end of the season. Will be very disappointed if we offer new contract to any of the out of contract senior players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitcat Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 To be honest, he wasn't great last season either. It's been a steady decline since the play-off final. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Probably a symptom of the team going down hill. Individuals start looking worse. I do not the buy the age thing. One year is nowt. And 33 is young. Edited February 28, 2018 by Beholder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Farrell Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Too old. No pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 He's older of course. But he wasn't even the same last year as the tear before. And it wasn't all down to the age factor. A Winger. Asked to play a wide tucking in defensive position his manger. That's is also what happened to the poor fecker. Of course his age is a factor. But played correctly he would still have offered something. If he's released I genuinly don't think he'll have much difficulty finding himself a club.

Between them, the top four clubs in this division have 5 players ages 32 and over with 20+ league appearances this season 32 is now officially "old" in football mate and has been for a few years now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been cracking value for money and considering how good he was for the first two seasons his time here has been great. But just like everything else went downhill this year and we need to upgrade come summertime. 4 minutes ago, nilsson said: 33 is past it now.

Many of those age 32 and above are GK or DEF players in the Prem anyway. Edited February 28, 2018 by Lionel Fessi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash-Williams Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 One of the few players who can hold his head up high in this sh ite show of a season, no doubt lack of proper pre season and training will not have helped him at his age. Always up for the big games, Shame to see him go but doubt we will see him here next season, But no doubt good enough for some other Championship team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
