Mosborough-owl Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I really like him as a player.. but he can’t nail down a position at any club unfortunately, And managers seem to get fed of him. It’s a real shame because the lad has bags of talent. On his day, when he’s playing with full confidence, he could easily play at the highest level imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I don’t have an issue with him, the problem has been getting him on the pitch for any more than a couple of games at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 He was for a time a quality player. . That time has gone . What would we do without him , some ask? We’ve been without him for years. Too many passengers for too long aboard the Wednesday gravy train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 I think the reason some are reluctant to let him go would be because we should have been getting about 7m for him when he left here not, not actually renewing his contract and giving him away on a free. And they are caught in that notion that he could be worth that again. But as said above it's about time the Gravy train dropped some people off.

Plonk Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Another one who has suffered badly through monks appointment. A good manager would have him as the focal point of the team. In years to come we will look back and say if only we had players like FF Westwood and Hutch. All players that would walk into our team of the decade. Going to give him a free because monk doesn’t know how to use him. And he will replace him with who? Some Spanish journeyman like the one he described as” the type of player we need” and whose name I cant even remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch McLovin Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 19 hours ago, agentwalker said: Monks style.... if he has one just doesn't suite him. Even when he's playing well Monk then reacts by moving him back out wide. There was one game when he managed to pull a goal back for us, playing up front. Then straight from the kick off Monk responds by bringing on Rhodes and shafting FF out on the wing to track back. . You can see in the old Carlos clips his game is pass and move. Half the time he tries that but no one moves apart from Bannan. The rest haven't got a clue. Just look at previous clips. FF, Wallace, Hooper, Bannan, Lee. Every one of them had the pass and move style which worked. Since then its been root one.... depressing how far we've dropped since. Exactly right. Monk and Forestieri are both out of contract. There should only be one renewed and it is NOT Monk. Forestieri is a special player who if used correctly and he can be kept fit can produce match winning moments and displays which we need.

According to the local press, Monk is on a one-year rolling deal. So you'll be delighted to learn that means his contract will NEVER expire.

I'm reluctant because I know we won't sign an adequate replacement. He hasn't really done the business the last few years for various reasons but he still has quality and is capable of it. We'll likely sign some workmanlike player to replace him who can play more games but doesn't have the ability. That's why its frustrating. Either way, I think he'll want to move on and try playing abroad assuming we don't offer him a big contract to stay (which we shouldn't do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact of the matter is he’s done next to nothing since going on strike and forcing the club to give him more money after serving just one year of his first contract. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Do I miss the 17/18, 18/19, 19/20 version - not at all. 17/18. He returned from a long layoff to score 5 in 10 games Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
