Vesper 30,207 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) 1 hour ago, robsblubot said: Quite on the contrary; that's how they build their reputation in the game. Players will know that however poorly they may be playing, the manager will always have their backs. The fact that he's protecting Sanchez so much only means, to me, that *Sanchez requires that much protecting*. Managers criticize their star players, their best players, or at least mention it's a bad spell or whatnot. That never happens with the actual poor players. Maresca's reputation is becoming that of a gaslighter. I do not give a toss about Sanchez and his fucking feelings He can fuck off to Turkey or some other shit league Edited January 26 by Vesper kolovrat, Reddish-Blue and Johnnyeye 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Klopp on Karius back then when he single-handedly lost a CL… he prob wanted to kill him but was very careful when speaking to the press. players are club assets — exposing the shortcoming of players only make it more difficult to move them.

But playing him on a regular basis is also "exposing his shortcoming".....and it's reaching a point where we won't be able to move him on. Similar to Sterling, not a single club actually wanted him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can stay on as a deputy keeper., playing the odd game here and there against rubbish opposition. The problem is that he is starting every game, and is getting exposed.  Reddish-Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that he is starting every game, and is getting exposed.  Its funny that we've been trying to move Kepa on for the past few windows....and yet he's probably the best GK we have "on the books" (Penders looks to be a talent for the future). At least with Kepa, he's showing that he can be a useful option for other clubs.  With Sanchez, he is showing exactly why Brighton were so keen to see the back of him.   Fulham Broadway and robsblubot 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wrote as a general rule. Managers cannot bash players however poorly they play… it’s really not their place. The players, as assets, belong to the club, not the manager. unless it’s a behavior issue. Managers tend to have more leverage there and the backing of the squad against a problem player. Managers cannot lose the locker room—that’s all they got. agreed with the remarks above: Sanchez can become our 2nd or 3rd keeper no prob as long as he does not play.
