I'm afraid the route the club has gone down with a so called " philosophy " there isn't many managers u can get without restructuring the whole club!!!
A lot off players would have sat on the bench on 100k at Liverpool but joe decided to go to France , learn a new language, learn a new culture and uproot his family to play football .
Great player when fit but its ridiculous at the moment , can't keep going on like this . Will any club really sign him, I can't see it. This sounds stupid but I'd imagine he not far from retirement , you can get 4 or 5 hamstring injurys a season and expect to get contracts. Very sad tho.
Because I have followed his career from the start and he just loves football . If he is offered game time here it wouldn't surprise me if he comes here. He will want to stay down south, so unless another prem team wants him I think he will sign for us.
I think this would be a great result for us and playing away second is a big advantage to us. Because if derby need to score it will mean the game is more open and play in to our hands to counter attack. All the semis in Europe this year were won by the team playing away second.
When jfc first broke in to the squad I thought he was going to be our frank lampard getting into the box late and scoring goals . But now he doesn't seem to want to take many risks . Has he had his attacking instincts trained out of him ???
