Plenty at Middlesbrough and he clearly fell out with staff and club personnel at Leeds and Birmingham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my problem with Odubajo is that he's never looked any good going forward either. I don't remember a single run or cross that made me think he might be what we need. Imagine playing him as a left-midfielder. Imagine relying on him to provide the service to the strikers. No thanks. But in a bargain-basement world he might be the sort of quality we'll have to get used to. He was the sort of quality that made him a regular in the Hull side that got promoted at our expense and is still young enough to come good with us. The manager that got Hull promoted thought he would be a useful asset to us, the manager we currently have doesn't seem to be getting the best out of anyone other than Fletcher.

It seems they had a discussion and Monk told him he was free to go out on loan in January, great man management for a new signing, especially considering all the defensive options we don't have, particularly at full-back.

SiJ Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Looked a proper player when he was at Hull. Perhaps the injuries have take their toll? Has to be said, he has been a bit of a car crash. Going to PNE (away) and seeing him give away two stonewall penalties. Deary me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the players he did manage to get in during January, I wouldn't have been holding out any hope on that. At least we have defended well without him in the side in 2020 though eh, among the worst records for goals conceded in the entire football league this year.

At least he has held his hands up and is working hard to improve. Seemingly every other match this year we have conceded 3 or 5 with every one of our defenders at fault for plenty of goals. Deary me.

Fair point but Monk does have a history of falling out with people in a fairly short space of time at his previous clubs that have led to his demise and for some reason a squad that he was initially able to get to be effective early on has stopped performing to any sort of level under his management. From the article, when Odubajo went to have a discussion with the manager I don't think he was expecting to be told he was free to leave, just seems a bit abrupt.

NeonLeon Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Re. Monk falling out with players. I can remember a few months back a Brum fan on here listing 2 or 3 senior players there that he’d supposedly fallen out with. As I pointed out at the time Clotet hadn’t rushed them back into his team this season, and since then I noticed last week that they’ve all been released by Brum. Just goes to show that because a manager is the first one to drop a player doesn’t mean it’s happened because they’ve had a falling out. I like Odubajo, but considering his form since Monk came in it’s hard to see why he’d have been in a rush to keep him if someone had come knocking in Jan.

The most consistent defender has probably been Fox? I can't recall him making too many mistakes. Every one else has had a complete mare at some point or another.
