It is very,very frustrating. I remember the near hysteria on here when he signed but it's all gone a bit pear shaped to say the least. That said, we have to be realistic and think why he signed for us.If he had a recent track record of being fit surely he would have gone elsewhere. I hope he is on a "sensible" contract and isn't costing us an arm and a leg. Let's hope we see him in the new year.

On FM, I'm in the fifth season and Vicente, now an unemployed coach, is top on the list of people who dislike me. Not really sure why.
You don't think teams will target him and instantly kick him out of the game, and the season? If he can't get fit in training then I dread to think what will happen when he gets in a real game.
I thought it was fairly well known that he COULD be playing games now, but would then have to miss two matches for every one that he plays, so they're holding him back and building him up so that he can play 10-15 games in say a 20 game period.
Could be wrong.

One of the reasons the fans are so frustrated about Vicente is that expectations have been managed very badly over his condition.
This ridiculous 'hoping he'll be okay for next week' has been a joke for weeks, it's either some economy with the truth, or deliberate misinformation from the manager.
And it's not the only player that's happened with either.

Indeed, I'm all for mindgames, but they are taking the piss a bit. Official site "Hoskins is an injury doubt for Middlesbrough" - Naylor "I've just spoken to Will Hoskins and he's confirmed he's damaged knee ligaments, out for 6 weeks"

If he's on a small retainer and a pay as you play contract its frustrating for the fans but not necessarily a problem for the club
ees complicated no?

Talking of fm I sold him in the 1st season for 1.3 mil back to a spainish team
Whether someone is suffering from homesickness or not isn't an opinion.
As for his contract, I believe he has a regular playing contract, not a pay as you play type.

You said it as if it's a fact. It's not. You lied.

Maybe he's earning his money with his coaching and tactics input and showing our youngster's better techniques, positioning etc
He's only 30, I wouldn't say he is coming to the end of his career, unless he really cant get fit again. The homesickness thing is complete speculation, it's just been made up. I am reserving judgment until the end of the season. So far we've got 4 games and 1 goal out of him. If he comes good in the New Year and makes another 15 appearances and 5 goals, then he was a worthwhile siging, as long as he isn't on silly money, which I cant imagine he is. If we can get him fit enough to play 2 out of every 4 games then he can make a major impact. Like Ledley King does for Spurs.
