Whatever is going on at NCFC ?I read this morning that Giannoulis wants out as he can see how hopeless it is at NC . We’ve only just paid £6.4m for him . He obviously has more ambition than the Smiffs . We also hear that Gilmour wants to get out and go to Rangers , and I suspect that the likes. of Rashica and Tzolis are non too happy at limited appearances while proven garbage like Mclean always starts and the useless Rupp is chosen over Dowell
Giannoulis can go he is so weak, he makes my three-year-old daughter look like Thor. I think he'd be better as an attacking left midfielder.
Gilmour, who can blame him. He was so sought after during the euros and he comes here is played out of position and is now behind bloody Rupp (who I may add DF said was the first name on his team sheet).
Tzolis must be so pissed off. Top talent and lots of scouts must have watched him and reported back to other clubs comes here and we play a defensive formation with no wingers is not even getting time off the bench. It is obvious we need his pace and skill yet it is Rupp, Idah and Rashica who get on.
Rashica is another who looks to have the tools but is new to the English game and isn't given the time to adapt. Does DF even know what position he plays (he reminds me a lot of Placheta - quick strong but a bit headless chicken and no time to adapt with game time).
Dowell will be off as like the above he is seemingly behind powder puff feet Mr USA, Rupp, Idah, Lees-Melou et al. The guy looked good towards the end of last season and in the preseason but DF seems to not trust him --- maybe it is because you play him as a right-winger you bloody plonker. He is a number 10 much like Cantwell.
Sorensen - A loan move is on its way I think.
For me, against a Leeds side who are not at their best we need to be positive in the build-up (DF at his press conference), give the fans and players a boost 'we are wounded after Chelsea and we are bloody dangerous we want 3 points like a lion wants blood' something like that. None of this pussy shit 'oh, Leeds are soo good' Bielsa is a God who I want to kiss' and 'it isn't a must-win and Leeds are so good we just want to be nice to them and we love them'. I want anger, passion and a winning attitude from Daniel.
I want DF to build his players up and not crush them in the press conference as he did with Gilmour. After two really good games for Scotland DF then says 'yeah but that was against poor opposition and it is not like this league' - thanks, boss.
Then when the team sheet is out I want to see us going for it 4-3-2-1 or 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 with Gilmour, Tzolis in. Leeds won't see it coming they will think it will be the same old DF - going with the same formation and side and Leeds will then think ah a walk in the park but imagine their players when at !4:00 on Sunday the line is announced and it's attacking and positive with the unknown talent that is Tzolis on the pitch, the Scottish Wes Hoolihan in the number 10 role, Rashica on the right. It would give us all a lift and you know what if that fails at least we know DF went for it and it is just the players we have are shit :-)
