Owls Loyal Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 In the pre-Brighton Press Conference the journalists did not even ask about FF or where he is in his recovery. He seems to be off the radar and an update would be very welcome in my view. I may be in a minority on here but I still believe that a fit and firing Fernando Forestieri would bring a different dimension to the team that we do not currently possess. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Monk said he was returning to the grass last week I believe so should have an update this week. I may be in the minority with you but I’d still play him week in week out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the majority agree with you, actually. It's just that he's been neither fit nor firing for quite some time now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same - the fans seem to have accepted the urban myth of it's FF's annual Christmas holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toooldforthis Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Bannan summed him up. “Isn’t working hard enough in training, doesn’t work hard enough on the pitch” - Monk won’t play someone who isn’t fighting for a place. FF is done at SWFC. He was done 18 months ago. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deano Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I would also start him if playing 2 upfront. Yes I know he's not an out and out striker but he is a much better player than our other options who just don't contribute enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birstall Owl Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 After his wonder goal at Norwich last season found a post from a Leeds fan on a forum that said "on his day he is head and shoulders above anything in this division, unfortunately his day was about 18 months ago" Summed it pretty well tbf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Hopefully getting him off the payroll will free up some cash for hungry young players. He is either never fit or always suspended. I can’t see why we hold out any hope getting him back in the fold as he has shot his bolt here and that’s been clear for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wont leave this month as we will demand to much money for him based on what he may have done in the past. Same can be said about Rhodes.

NeonLeon Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 If everyone’s on their game he’s not the best winger at the club and he’s definitely not the best striker. Hard to see where he fits in to be brutally honest. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N0rtherner Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 He's gone once his contract is up, or if some offer comes in. Should just take our losses and offload asap, although if true concerning not being fit for the squad when you're not working for it, he stands as a good example to the rest of the squad that it doesn't matter how good you are if your effort is not there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the players who are always available for selection because they train hard and don't refuse to get on the team coach? I know who I would rather have in my team.
