Strange he is stating injury, but medics say all clear. Surely he thought he had a hamstring and the medics said he didnt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM: We want to finish these games with consistency, we are using this period to improve a lot of things, we have a lot of tough tests but we want to finish as high as we can and take the positives into next season Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM on Brewster: They've got good ability in that team, offensively especially. Overall defensively we've done very well. It was only that first decision with the penalty really. In terms of consistency we've been very good. Swansea have a good ability.

@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM on Wickham: We're seeing what he's capable of. It was always going to take a bit of time to get him up to match sharpness, it's going to be important in all of these games. As tough as it is, we're going to ask him to play a lot of football!

I am sure Monk's plan was pretend Lees is injured and put Odubajo at left centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM on other loans: I've been really pleased with all of them. There's always an advantage with those that have worked with you, you gain time. It's going to be a really short turnaround and we need to hit the ground running.

@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM on Liam Palmer: I've been really pleased. He's had to adapt but we've tried to make it really clear. Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 GM on mentality: The mentality needed to improve. We've already spoken about it, we saw a good side of it against Forest, to come fighting back, it shows that it's there. 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something Wednesday (whoever is in charge) says every pre-season, with a cunning masterplan to ensure it happens. Then the season starts and reality hits us. We're woeful at season start time, year after year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You assume I'm moaning about Monk - when in fact I am questioning the attitude of another player not wanting to play. You should not jump to conclusions so fast, it could make you look foolish.

There's that word again, given time. He's said it a few times. I do wonder what the situation is with that. Will his contract be reviewed at the season end? Will it depend on what league we're playing in? Does he know something about the verdict, but is bound by club rules? All speculation of course, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am starting to wonder if DC is planning a new start after this court case. Hopefully stay up, clear the decks with regards to the playing staff and then a new managerial staff, new budget and have another go FFP allowing.

That's exactly the point, it's a very strange call for a player to state injury, be completely overruled by the club medics, then called out by the manager. There are some very odd things happening with certain players. If it had been Hutchinson or Westwood, I think we would all just think 'that's the attitudes of the players' (as they have previous history of it with us), but Lees?????? Very odd.
