[Albion] Leandro Trossard

[Guinness Boy]

How did he not get hooked? Awful display.

Trossard's a cu nt Ole Ole

Never mind booing him for 90 mins, gave this the full beans in the concourse afterwards in addition.

Anyone saying he doesn’t deserve it wasn’t at Charlton.

I thought he was pretty decent today. I know he left under a cloud and I don’t like him much but I think booing him for the entire match was a bit unnecessary. A bit tin pot, some might say.

He created some historic moments in our club’s Premier League journey, he’s long gone and we have upgrades.

Yes it makes us look tinpot and petty

 

[Brian Munich]

90th minute? Someone should have gone into the dressing room and dragged him out so we could boooo him for even longer.

Or pulled him onto that train to Lewes.

 

[HP Seagull]

He put one good cross in that Baleba did well to head away. Other than that, I don’t remember him doing anything other than a wayward shot near the end.

 

[jcdenton08]

Huge credit to Veltman who won the physical and mental battle, as he so often does. He was chatting away in his ear the whole game, bit of a masterclass in psychological warfare from our man.

Definitely played a part in keeping Trossard so quiet.

Football is 70% pantomime. Of course, he got booed.

Booing him the first few times was funny. From then on it was a bit stupid, it becomes counter productive when you are riling him up…thankfully he didn’t perform…

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Tbf to Trossard he was pushed out. Can't have a manager who refuse to talk to you face to face but trashtalk you every press conference.

Good player, by all accounts decent guy... luckily Joel Veltman doesn't give a shit and controlled him through the game.

Was he?
You’ll have to furnish me with your inside knowledge because I seem to remember a player who’d given up on the pitch, had a fight with a senior player and left the country when he was due at training.

Eh?

He didn’t perform. Therefore the booing worked. Same with Cucurella & Potter in the 4-1.

Clearly it didn’t though.

Of course, Mac was a 'good leaver' as HR people say but what’s that got to do with my point? I think it’s fine to boo Trossard at the start and for a few touches but when people (a small minority, admittedly) are still booing him in the 90th minute it’s all a bit embarrassing. I don’t like the bloke, as I said, but it's classless to keep whining about it forever.

Much as I hate Chelsea, I was impressed by them applauding Gilmour and singing "One Billy Gilmour" when WBG went to take a corner at the away end last season. A bit of a contrast with the pantomime booing of Caicedo and Cucurella for 90 minutes. Sometimes it just comes across as a bit small-minded and obsessive. They’re gone. Fook 'em.

In the alexis / gary lineker podcast he covers off why its important to leave well. He specifically mentions players going to chelsea as examples of bad leavers. Trossard in my mind was worse than 2 of the 3 chelsea leavers. Anyone who saw his 'performance ' at charlton post the world cup could have seen what was going to happen

He was also utterly abject against Arsenal, he got hooked for Ferguson IIRC.

Adam lallana and a few of our current players will give a very different view of what happened in that dynamic. Safe to say it doesn't match your version of events

Correct, I was saying he didn’t get riled up but that booing a player can do that…

Was that the one when he kept walking around looking bored or was that the one after? I can see why the manager would want him out. So unprofessional

 

[jcdenton08]

Can also make them absolutely crumble and help hand a win, it really depends on the player. Cucurella left the pitch in tears when March absolutely destroyed him on his Amex return.

Yep, Arsenal were giving us a going over as we were essentially playing with 10 men and had nothing up top. Game completely changed once he’d gone off.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Boooooooooooooooooooo

That’s because what he wrote was agenda led fiction.

Dan Harding was hooked at half time in tears!
