There some master debaters on here, for sure.

Eythor deserves the chance to show us what he can do this season. As for Stama, the new manager will likely give him an opportunity, although we all know how that’s likely to end.

Not sure how much knowledge you need to have to form an opinion, and I wouldnt want to stop anyone from having theirs, or indeed offering it up. But I do think you should be willing to consider changing your view in the face of information that may cast doubt on your own. Debate is good, or so they say! 😍😍😍

So , that's a long winded way of saying you dont have enough knowledge for an opinion but here's mine anyway...most people would just say nothing.

Alf doesn't seem the kind of manager who would alienate players like that

Record reporting overnight that we have agreed a Jardell Kanga fee!!!!!!!!!!!! £350k potentially rising to approx £900k with add ons 😮

Maybe it's his clone that's interested.

Someone saw it on Instagram and sent it to me. If you look at the other posts this person has made, it's clearly nonsense...

Has anyone else seen this Jim Carrey rumour ??? Bollocks I assume ?

All the manager said regarding the strikers was "they're on the pitch now, but they're still doing individual work, they're not training with the team yet" A week after that both of them were added to the squad list for freiburg. It would be a stretch to interpret that as anything other than they're working up their fitness before any full contact training.

Neither have I.

I meant I hadn't heard of us making players train in their own when they fall out with the club or other non-playing reasons.

Saw on Facebook (so must be right) that Maswanhise is linked to Trabzonspor who have made a 7 million euro bid. Can’t find the link now. Anyone else seen this?

I've heard of us arranging non contact training for injured players in the past 5 years, but can't recall exact details.

I agree, how could you assess Thor and to be fair hes looked a handful in the couple of games hes played. Stamas just been piss poor from day one.

Stama definitely, a waste of space, not sure Thor is in the same bracket hes hardly had a chance through injury.

It’s not something I have ever heard of us do before. I suppose it could happen, but just doesn’t seem our style.

Hopefully you’re right and I’m seeing something that’s not there but I’ve never heard us talk of us train others this way when recovering.

That’s usually disciplinary issues. In this case it sounds more like specialized rehab.

I'd like to see Thor get a chance in a team that actually crosses the ball, because we didn't last year, but I don't hold out much hope for him.

No basis at all, perhaps you’re right but I just have a feeling that training themselves apart from the squad reeks of players not wanted or trusted by the management for some reason. Seen it happen at other clubs before.

Eythor would seem to fit into the style Alfred likes to play, with lots of crosses into the box. I’m happy to see him get a chance when he’s fit. If it doesn’t work then we can look for our plan B in January.

On what basis? They were both reported to have muscle injuries. If they are back training, they are maybe ok for light running, but not contact training with the squad? I think most of us expect Stama to return to Australia at some point, but its surely too early to be calling time on Eythor.

The thought of having Kanga and Said on the same pitch is making me so excited for what we soon could be witnessing.
