Danny Drinkwater

[NikkiCFC 8,287]

Danny and Baba did not help us losing 3:1 against Pool kids.

[Jase 43,479]

Got sent off for the U23s...

So sad what happenend to him.

4 years ago he was the leader in Leicester City and now he kicking 16 year old boy in an under 23's game

Doing God's work. What a man [emoji23]

 

 

Although on second watching he got 2 footed first.

I think it is pretty clear now he either has mental health problems or substance (alcohol) abuse problems, if not both.

Whilst he should know better and deserved to be sent off, the tackle he received for a reserve game is bordering on ridiculous as it could very easily have broken his leg.

It's also a pretty damning indictment of the state of football nowadays that a 16 year old is writhing around in agony holding the wrong leg that Drinkwater lashed out at.

other than selling De Bruyne and buying Kepa (only because of how much we paid and then the fucking SEVEN year contract on a high as hell wage, if he was a Mendy level buy, then no biggie), Drinkwater is the worst transaction in the history of the club, he has passed up Torres

I still want vengeance for whatever cunt thought up this shite

just insane that he will end up costing us over £60m net spend!!!!!

fuck

I don't think i'll ever be able to look past Torres purely because of how long we persisted with him despite the clear detriment of the club, it was the only time of Roman's tenure i worried our expectations were in the gutter. Because of him we were out of play when Aguero and Falcao were on the market, we lost Sturridge due to the insistence on trying to make it work with Nando, the club gave him every possible condition to succeed and most of all his attitude stank.

As poor as Danny was the mistake (atleast in terms of first team involvement) was rectified pretty quickly with minimal damage done.

Apparently he works on his mental issues as mentioned on previous page and I really pity him due to how his career fell off the cliff in Chelsea, but I suppose that while he'd probably get all the best kind of support from the club, any substance abuse that interferes with football would be used as a reason to terminate his contract the very first second it happened. 

He, as a business asset is a huge trouble for the club so I doubt they keep dumping millions of pounds on him if they are not absolutely forced to but rather look for any way to move him without even bigger loss.

I can see that being a valid argument

NOTHING though makes up for the De Bruyne sale

that will haunt me for life

The forum was blinded by Jose and the brief Fabregas-Costa spell but man, KDB would have set us up for a decade

I actually dont blame it all on Danny, that kid 2 footed him first, little sht.

Think of it from Danny's perspective, his bussiness ventures are not turning out well, hes dealing with his mental/alcohol issues and hes trying to get his carrer on track. One reckless tackle in a nothing game and it could be the end of his carrer and then what does he have? You can imagine the pressure he has to try and work something out with his life.

all we had to do was put a BUYBACK in

we sold him to middle sized club, not some monster like Juve or Real or Bayern

sigh

I was pissed about Salah too, but nowhere near as much (at the time) as KDB

but we should have put a buyback in as well on Mo

real shame that Costa did not sustain at a high level

Imagine

CF Lukaku or Costa (healthy) or to go mind-fuck time-travel Mbappe (if we had signed him as a youth when he had a try-out)

LW Hazard

RW Salah

AMF De Bruyne

Yeah, just seen a clip of it. That tackle was way worse than what he did and obvious straight red imho, so if that kid left unwarned it's ridiculous.

Media making headlines like 'Drinkwater obliterates 15-year old' now are BS and just unfair. Never thought I'd say it, but I 100% stand behind Drinkwater here.

And of course, Tottenham school of football visible even in kids match – make a two-footed, criminal tackle and then pretend to be the victim, holding wrong leg, ugh.

Someone wants him! Turkish side Kasimpasa. Loan till end of the season. Turkish beer is good.
