that adel and traore got the train home when they found out they weren't in today's team. anyone hear this?
I hope there is no truth. Both players have a big part to play this season. I really fear that Taarabt is going to waste a real talent.
yeah they did, couple of blokes I was sitting next to on the bus after the game told me they had a chat with them, took some pics too, apparently taarabt was a true gent but upset he'd been left out of the squad.
I can understand Taarabt being annoyed but not Traore who has looked totally disinterested and lazy all season.
If this is true what the hell is Hughes playing at? Taarabt has to be on the bench at least. He is a potential game changer.
I want him to be upset, it's how he responds that counts. Although I'd prefer professionally they stayed and supported team mates.
Little ****s!! Weather it's right or wrong of Hughes to leave them out, you don't do that. ****ing childish!
Bet this is bullshit, and they were told they could go early to their international call up, if they wanted.
Seriously though, they should be disappointed at being left out, but it's down to them to prove to the manager that they should be in the team. If this is true they should be disciplined accordingly.
Whose shirt wasnt there to be fair in the picture I think the whole squads was there, may have been gamesmanship by MH though
Here's the link if it works but I'd rather know the truth than second guess on here. http://p.twimg.com/A1tj5NACcAAnYU-.jpg:large
They only hang up the 18 man squad so he was due to take part. i assume Mackie or Hoillett werent even due to be in the squad. confirmation both Taarabt and Hill were in the squad, it will be interesting to see what Hughes says. Looks like Traores 3 is next to Taarabts too.
If true it would seem that these two would rather play in a weak squad than fight for a place in a stronger one.
