Some obviously are as they keep quoting me in and asking direct questions, try and keep up rather than being blinkered
You claimed 'he has a very bad attitude' and 'causing dressing room unrest'. What you just quoted doesn't back up what you said in any way, in fact I'd happily say you're making it up and couldn't prove that for £100. 'It was claimed in 2023 that Patrick Vieira began to become ‘frustrated’ with Diarra’s attitude and told that to the teenager.' 'During his second season with the club, Diarra was supposedly performing poorly in training and not giving his full focus in pre-season'.
And then he went on to become captain, one of the best performing CM in the league, and got a glowing reference from his clubs manager… **** me I was a liability when I was a teenager means nothing. Be saying Messi wasn’t very good at football when he was a foetus next.
Yes, but claimed by whom? And who supposed he was off his training? Might well be true mind, wouldn't be the first teenager to need a warm up. But unattributed suggestions often have origins of varying certainty. Of course, they might all be ****e, I know nowt about any of them really. But they've been pretty good here for a while now in picking players, and almost all of them have been sound characters. We haven't found a Jean Kevin Augustin yet anyway!
Viera being 'frustrated' at a 19 year old is hardly worth mentioning tbh. How anyone can claim it shows they have a very bad attitude is ludicrous.
So from what you said above to “apparent bad attitude and dressing room unrest”.is a stretch! Nothing in your message about the dressing room at all so you literally made it up. Nothing on google about it either. The only results about Habib Diarra and dressing room are about how his manager saw him as such a positive influence. Ah sorry, I have found the site who talked about him causing dressing room unrest. Leedsunited.news! Also making stuff up to suit an agenda!
Viera stunk the place out at Strasbourg and lost more games than he won before he was sacked. He was only there about 9 months so his views on a 19 year old would barely count ... ... especially when Diarra had three times the games Viera managed
I didn't say that you were beaten to his signature, just pointing out that you had contradicted yourself in saying that in one response you hadn't bid but in another you had but then pulled out - I agree with you that if your best offer is refused then move on. We've decided to pay the extra because we believe he is worth it - opinions and all that.
