Where does Whelan get off?
The latest pronouncement from the Oracle if all that is good for LUFC (yeah, as if)
“Peacock-Farrell should be behaving far more respectfully to the club, the fans, Marcelo Bielsa and his teammates. It was a little bit cringeworthy to be threatening to leave his club whole on international duty. His agent needs a bit of a slap if he told him to do that.
“Come on, behave with a bit of class. Coming out and speaking like that was not the right thing to do and not the way you should be going about it.
“I understand he is playing regularly for Northern Ireland, but you can’t guarantee anybody to play every match. Come back in pre-season, show the right attitude and convince the manager with what you do on the training ground. Don’t go spouting off in the media.”
BPF is a young goalkeeper who was part of the squad that got us into the top 5 of the division throughout the first half of the season, playing in every match, only to be demoted and expected to "learn" from the great white hope from Spain, who contributed significantly to us losing the playoff games and hence promotion, when he (BPF) had done NOTHING significantly wrong.
And now Whelan (and others), think his comments about wanting first team game time are disrespectful, ungrateful etc????? Maybe the same could be said about club that has formed out millions to procure the services if a keeper who has flattered to deceive (and who appears to be agitating for an exit, but not a word if criticism from Whelan about that. Hypocrisy or what?)
If BPF goes the club have no-one to blame but themselves, and if Casilla goes then good riddance to bad rubbish.
