    I was being sarcastic.

    Dani starts after the birth of his kid. Good chance for him tonight.

    Krueger says he will be talking to Dani at the end of the season...now that could be interesting. I wonder if he is going to try to get him back on board.

    First I read that as "on THE board" and it was a much funnier proposition.

    Well it will be interesting if they offer him a second chance. I guess should be up to the first team whether they are willing to aswell.

    I suspect that Dani really wants to be back in Italy, but he is under contract and I suppose it will depend on any offers for him. It may yet suit him to return...tempers have probably cooled by now.

    It would certainly suit us from a footballing perspective as we so desperately need a striker, but no, I don't think it suits either him or the other players on a psychological level.

    If he comes back and makes an effort I'm sure they'll get over it. If there is more to it than just the fight (as I suspect there probably is), then I doubt he will be back.

    I don't think he's even remotely interested in doing so. I may be entirely wrong, but that's the impression I've got/made/invented!

    Do we want him to stay? Did he do enough/show enough promise?

    If he applied himself he'd be excellent for us, I have no doubt about that.

    I don't think that there's such a thing as a heart-to-heart capable of causing a person to stop being a hot-headed idiot. Even if people put this latest thing behind them, I find it hard to believe that it will be the last time Dani loses his temper and/or mind.

    There are techniques to learn to think before acting...anger management....but you have to want to. I'm not convinced Dani would feel he had to do it. I think his problem is having a hot temper combined with an overweaning sense of his own rightness.

    It in a nutshell really. The players all say how close they are...probably don't want this harmony disturbed. However, a player (Cork?) said he had no problem with Dani, so perhaps it's a few of the senior players who didn't like his attitude...that could have been what lead up to the headbutt incident. I can imagine trouble when a new kid on the block dares to challenge the status quo where a few players consider themselves top dogs. Sometimes an irritant in an oyster produces a pearl...but perhaps not in Dani's case.

    I agree, he has what we need. Sadly though, I think it is likely that he's just too much of a problem/risk.
