Well now we have another perfect opportunity to play Burn in Botmans position and have a proper full back at left back, but we all know burn will be there and Lascelles in the middle hoofing it back to the opposition. I'm now wondering is that why Lascelles got the contract extension because they knew about Botmans injury. I've a feeling this transfer window is going to be abysmal.He certainly seems to rush his favourites back. I don't get it because surely in Burn he has a perfect Botman substitute? Oh yeah that's right, Burn has to play out of position.
Are you having a laugh? Not only does the manager have the final say on who plays he PICKS the medical staff! I know you think the sun shines out of Eddie's hole but it's getting embarrassing at this point.It isn't the managers job.
What's embarrassing is not accepting the facts and looking for any excuse to blame the current manager and his set up. When we win or do well with him, it's rosey but when we hit a bad injury crisis and lose or play badly, it's criticism and over the top stuff at that. It makes the fanbase look shallow.Are you having a laugh? Not only does the manager have the final say on who plays he PICKS the medical staff!

It is the absolutely the Manager's job to decide who plays and who does notI actually thought that Botman has looked overweight for most of the season and if anything good comes out of it then it may be that the club looks closer at the medical set up.
It isn't the managers job. He just goes on what information he's provided with although playing players that have had questionable injuries which have been spoken about in the media is another can of worms altogether. Botman's recent knee speculation as well as Longstaff's injections being two for starters.
In regards to FFP or whatever this week's version is called or whatever model of it there will be come the Summer, we have increased turnover massively so the lack of spend cant last forever. The bigger issue for us will be when they factor in stadium building or improvement costs into the budget and I reckon we have until Man Utd get theirs sorted before it changes.
I was talking about which players are fit or not and If Howe has been given the information from the medics that a player can be played then that's that. Nee mention of anyone else picking a team.It is the absolutely the Manager's job to decide who plays and who does not
Are you a bit thick? It's the medics job to assess injuries. It the MANAGER'S job to make the final call on whether to risk the player. You don't need to be a genius to work out that Howe will play a 50-50 player rather than rest them. He 100% has the power to over rule the medics. Your blind loyalty to him is almost as pathetic as his blind loyalty towards certain players. This season has been a complete shambles in terms of injury rehabs and rushing players back. Not just 1 bad call - almost all of them. Howe himself has recently admitted making mistakes in that regard and here you are trying to defend the indefensible.

Wasn't going to bother replying as I cant be arsed to deal with people who hide behind their keyboard with their attempts of abuse but just to waste my own time and energy, I couldn't give a fuck what your opinion is because I don't agree with it. Plain and simple. I wont abuse you by questioning your mental capacity though.Are you a bit thick? It's the medics job to assess injuries.

Fair enough. I respect your opinion.Lol that's a lot of words for someone who "doesn't give a fuck". I didn't abuse you I simply asked you a question because you're posting the same shit over and over. Ok you love Eddie - we get it. Its funny because I've seen you on other threads ridicule people for being "woke" and being "snowflakes" and here you are being a little woke snowflake crying abuse because somebody doesn't agree with your opinion. Like The Owl said I also have praised Eddie in the past at the brilliant job he's done. I've also stated and will state again he deserves next season. He's a good coach good motivator but he has limits and he has reached the peak of those limits in my opinion. There's nothing I want more to be proved wrong and him to be sitting here 5 years from now after winning our first trophy. Unfortunately though I'm a realist, and for someone who refuses to adapt and keep an open mind in regards to tactics in football then its extremely hard to see happening - unless we see a complete change of character, which let's be honest is very unlikely. Not to mention the very basic mistakes he doesn't seem to be learning from. IE rushing players back from injury and favouritism toward certain players.
I hope the medical team have learned from this but it really does scream naivety. I'm just hoping there's someone to stand up and say "no" let's not risk it. Just seems the management team are surrounded by yes men who won't challenge the status quo.Eddie admits Botman had a partial tear and was advised to have surgery then and chose not to. Just brilliant could have been back towards the start of the new season. Instead out until 2025.
