Talks about Ferdinand, Remy, and that we only have 14 players training - 2 of which are not ours. Although we do actually have 22 contracted players, so not sure why he only says 14. Removing: Cesar, Remy, Suk-Young (World Cup) Ferdinand (Hadn't trained until today) That still leaves 19. Also in his press conference today he said Granero wants to stay. Also, Austin said he is going nowhere.
Granero was one player who said all along that he would stay and play for us when we were relegated. I think it's good he's staying, had the right attitude, was just too young to cope with being in a side that was imploding on itself. With a team playing for each other now and more stable players around him, he could yet prove to be the magician it was claimed when he joined us.
absolutely with this, and it looks like he's the fittest of the lot in pre season testing. with the mentality the team now has, I'm expecting to see a much improved Granero when season starts.
Wait, so a week ago TF says he's staying and now HR says he's going. One of them is telling porkies. He must be hoping for 11 signings if he's telling everyone we have half a squad.
I thought TF said he'd 'LIKE' to keep Remy.....not that he was actually staying. I might be wrong though.
Well, we are the right team for Remy. We can make him look good. He won't sit on the bench with us. If he wants to build up a prolific goal-scoring account ................. we really are the best team to make him shine. If he goes to Arsenal or alike, he will only be a bit player .............. nuff said.
This is clearly a manager worried about himself and his legacy- He’s fully aware that he is close to retirement. He knows if he messes up this year then he’ll get the sack and that could be his last time in the premier league Because of this he is getting his excuses in early- he wants media image to be- it wasn’t a failure it was just a really tough job- But actually He chose to invest millions of pounds into short term and sometimes unnecessary signings like BAE, Krajncar, Benayoun, Hughes, Will Keane and Maiga Most definitely large chunks of wasted cash. If we’re short of numbers it’s his fault- this is his 4th transfer window and he cant say the board haven’t backed him Steve Black needs to get a hold of him- if a manager cant take responsibility – then how can he expect players to do the same?
I am happy to get behind Harry again this season. After all he did what was asked of him last season.
I think that figures are not Harold's strongest point....... If Granero stays then that gives us other options in the middle.....get Caulker in and then we can start to see what Harold is planning.....
I think Arsenal or Liverpool will be the only teams who will come in for him because they qualify for the £8 million release fee. Arsenal don't really need him, and Liverpool is a possibility. He'll only leave for a top 4 club and Champions League football. Anything else is a waste of time and Remy knows that.
Spot on, I've said it before but that game against spuds, he & Ale were amazing. Really want him to succeed with us.
