He was played out of his best position. He didn't have a manager who knew how to handle his eccentricities. He was passionate and probably a bit of a joker which some people didn't understand. He was exciting to watch but not quite good enough to turn it on every game. He needed the right manager to get the best out of him. He also needed some people to forget his Norwichgate escapade which he apologised for to the fans, his team mates and the chairman. He was accused of racialism which was never proved but hung over him for nearly a year I think. Handled properly he could have been a huge positive for us. In life you have to accept somethings which you don't like to get the things which give you greater benefits. Are all our wives perfect? Are we perfect in our wives eyes? Anybody who answers yes to either of these questions are kidding themselves. Fernando should/could have been what we need next season if he kept fit and was dealt with by a manager who knew how to accept his failings to benefit from his attributes. All the best from Fernando's appreciation Society president 4 managers since Carlos left and it’s all down to them. Utter codswallop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would blame the manager who is ultimately responsible for every player in the absence of a DOF. So by that rationale if any player is not performing, it’s the managers fault.

Dutch McLovin Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I’d much prefer them both in our side next season than in a team playing against us. Out of all those out of contract these two were the only ones I’d have kept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different story had he performed at the level of 2015/2016 on a consistent basis since then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
