Realistically RLB only had so much time to put teams together and get the results, it wasn't the time to f*ck around.

If all the players suggested by supporters, were dropped/chosen/subbed or 'given minutes' we'd have gone through the entire squad ten times over.

Aleksic may return, or not, and could be the best player we've ever allowed to leave or the best who returned.

In my opinion we don't know enough about him from the time he's had or the positions he's played to make a real judgement.

When you look at the group of players who've been written off you'd find Aleksic, Mundle, Hume, Mayenda, Isidor, Watson and many more.

To me that shows how little we know, as supporters, when all we have to go on is what we see on the pitch ...

... all the training, group coaching, assessments, mental/physical studies, individual coaching, etc etc etc is a mystery to us.

If the club feel this is, currently, the best option for Aleksic I have no option but to agree.

I wanted him to play more, during the playoff period, and perhaps RLB felt the same but sometimes you have to put someone in just to get that result.

It doesn't always have to be the most skilful or even previously effective ...

... Patrick Roberts was the right man at the right time but I doubt many at Wembley would've been baying for him to take the pitch.

Nail on head.
And that's from someone who from my 'perspective' sees Aleksic as the next Messi :azn:

A lesser man might have felt threatened by this guy coming in but Speakman it seems realised it was needed to hit this premiership running.

Good point mate, shows just how much the club has grown,

I doubt many Sunderland supporters would've either demanded Ghisolfi's appointment or known who he was ...

... he don't come cheap.

Newcastle have misspent millions because their owners know there's always more coming out of the ground ...

... sadly for them it's just spilling all over the place and everyone's slipping and sliding.

KLD is laser focussed and I bet every fiver is accounted for.

The Saudi mags are all ego and corruption and the mags who defend them have blood on their hands. They aren’t all the ssme. I was out the other week and there was a mag shirt with Khasoggi on the back. His words ‘ I support my team but not the disgusting ownership’. Every other one defending them has a design fault.
