Not sure this is the correct way to treat a player who seems to never cause us bother? http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2017/03/27/massadio-haidara-on-his-lack-of-action-at-newcastle-united/ please log in to view this image Massadio Haidara has told the Shields Gazette that Rafael Benitez has informed him that he will not be playing for Newcastle United, as there is too much competition for places. Haidara has made two FA Cup appearances for Newcastle so far this campaign, with his chances being very limited. And the French defender claims that Benitez has told him that he is not playing, as there is no room for him in his first-team set-up. “He has told me that he cannot play everyone and that some players must stay away from the first-team,” Haidara said. “But there are many games left until May and who knows if I will get my chance. Either way I will be ready if I am needed.”
“He has told me that he cannot play everyone and that some players must stay away from the first-team,” Haidara said. Isn't that the nicest way possible to tell someone they are crap. Maybe Rafa can have a word with Colback now. "Rafa has told me that he needs me to stay away from the first team as some of our players are allergic to the colour Ginger"
Indeed thats a real kick in the bollocks for Haidara. Rafa: "Yes I use every possible player available to me. Even Mitro and I think he's a nutcase. Haidara? You're a funny guy" I don't rate the lad at all. I think he is pretty poor and has zero positional sense and understanding of the game. I think Rafa has been fair enough with him. If he doesn't think he is going to feature you might as well tell him straight. I don't think Dummett is very good either, and the fact he is a far better option than Haidara says it all really. DPP will not be happy. Expect a Rafa Out/Rafa Castrated thread.
"Si, si, Massido, that is indeed how 'squad rotation' works. Last season you were on the youth squad, this season you 'rotated' to the reserve squad and next season you will 'rotate' to another club's squad. You are quick learner."
The only rotation you know is that of the 16 chickens you order on the Waitrose hot deli rotisserie......... on your diet day....... #tubbs
That's like comparing Darren Peacock's ponytail (the actual hairstyle, not the forum user) with Bobby Charlton's combover/combforward. One is limited going forward but provides some cover at the back and has more potential, while the other is, well, just generally limited - and quite frankly embarrassing. But neither would be your style of choice.
