Could HBA be heading back in January?

Just when things seem to be going well, we have a TEAM United willing to play for each other and the Manager.

Saturday was another good day, then you wake up on Sunday Morning, to news that the Evil B****** Steve Bruce is threatening to send Hatem Bad Apple back to the Toon in January.

Simply put, Steve, just cause your own team is playing c*** and you're unable to control the lazy git like you thought you could, it doesn't give you any right to undermine our season.

A deals a deal, you cant welch on it now - he's yours until the end of the season.

 

Bar him from the ground so he doesn't infect others with his couldn't give a sh.t attitude. Brucie gave him a chance to resurrect his career and he's blown it.

 

If he comes back from Hull he should be sent out to one of the local teams (possibly Heed) to help out until the end of the season. His ability would probably make up for his lack of fitness at a lower level and could give them a helping hand with a promotion push. He would probably refuse but if he does then he should be kept away from the first team squad where it is obvious the rest of the squad do not want his disruptive influence.

Such a shame cos the lad does have talent.

 

Is there a link for this or is it just an opinion?

 

Fat mike should just pay up his contract and be done with it.

plus Daily Fail, Mirror, etc

all saying same thing - Bruce fed up with his attitude and sending him back

 

Maybe the kebabs aren't up to Hatem's standards in hull.

 

Not a great surprise. The lad is a fool, so talented but just doesn't understand professional football. I'd be trying to farm him out somewhere else ASAP, or pay up his contract. We don't really need him as we have SDJ, Cabella, Sammy, Obertan, Aarons, Gouffran in the AM positions. If he was flying then and had sorted himself out we might have took that final 5 months as a bonus. As it stands you'd just be introducing a cancer which could quickly spread. The players wanted him out, I can't imagine they'd welcome him back.

I hope his fanboys can now see the problem was all HBA and not Pardew at all. HBA moreorless admitted it and said he intended to change his ways at Hull. Just bluster as usual. This fear his fanboys had of him tearing up the league has never really materialised. I'm sure the next defence will be its Bruces fault, just like it was Pardews, Deschamps, etc etc. Pardew may be average at what he does but the one thing he is very good at is setting a certain standard of professionalism for his squad (though he has dipped below it in managerial terms at times!). HBA will never amount to **** all.

 

This is too one-sided for me.

Surely someone will defend the honour and integrity of Hatem.
That snake Steve Bruce can't be allowed to treat him this way.

 

Didnt bruce **** on this story

Not very enthusiastically.

"He didn't hurt enough at Old Trafford to be among the substitutes at Goodison Park or today. His attitude is okay and I haven't got any problems with his personality is but he simply has to roll his sleeves up and work for the cause.

There is no disputing he has got ability but ability is not enough at this level so he will be treated like everyone else. We will see what December and January brings and I will sit down with him and see where we are."

 

Why on earth would you blame Bruce, all HBA had to do was play football for money, how many people would give their nuts for this sort of opportunity, to be a Professional Player in any of the top leagues is a dream for so many kids and this nugget squanders the chance and doesn't seem to give a ****.

 

Sounds like Bruce is saying HBA has all the talent but is a lazy **** who doesn't want to do any work.

 

I think you should see if Heeds tongue is in his cheek...

 

Seems to deny any major falling out but confirm the rest to me?

 

So I take it, you're not going to defend Hatem either.

Shame on all of you, bask in the glory when he was doing well, and, want nothing to do with him when he's down on his luck.

 

I would have him back tomorrow

 

I would have a fit, interested and performing HBA back today never mind tomorrow. I confess to being one of his fanboys as BG calls us but then again I accept he hasn't been fit, hasn't been interested and hasn't been performing. If he was I think everyone would have him back immediately. Why he isn't fit or interested or performing is another argument.

 

No doubt but you'd have to be a Sunderland fan to want him back in his current form, fitness and state of mind. When he was right I was a massive fan. I don't consider you a fanboy. That is someone who just belligerently refuses to accept his current flaws and still he thinks he is the genius of previous runs of form. The vast majority of his time here has been a disappointment, sadly due to his own personal issues whatever they are.

 

He's a fat little bastard and we are well rid.
