Weghorst - revisited...

[Tap in MN]

For some reason army, many fans like a scapegoat, no matter what they do they will get it in the neck. I don't think it's just us, it happens everywhere. Recent ones at Burnley have been Sean Dyche and Wout Weghorst, the current one is James Trafford, with JBG running him close.

I think you are right Sinkov. Even Mcilroy was not free from it. "Can't go inside", "Messing about again"', I remember it well being a big fan of
JM.

I've mentioned this before, when Paul Weller was playing for us me and my best mate and best man at two of my weddings used to have season tickets in the James Hargreaves Upper, our wives and kids always joined us and we had nine season tickets all in one row.

For whatever reason the bloke directly behind us took great exception to Weller, a misplaced pass or shot off target meant he broke out with a string of expletives. My mate warned him on 3 or 4 occasions but on he went.

I remember it like it was yesterday, we were playing Wimbledon at home and Weller scored a Worldie and off the eejit went effing and jeffing.

My mate turned round and launched a Mike Tyson "Special" and sparked him right out. The stewards turned a blind eye and happily we never saw the cretin again.

I'm not advocating violence but one or two of our "fans" need to run across my mate on one of his notorious "bad days"!

Value going down steadily, now at 9 mil euros, also got an abductor injury, he'll be worth nowt by the time we get him back.

I love Wout Weghorst and have done since he first got mentioned as a possible signing. If we lose money on him it is what we deserve. Stupid fans has treated him badly and VK made a huge mistake betting on JRod over Wout. It's all on the club and nothing to do with Wout.

Totally agree Will. He had to leave in order to win a place in the Dutch World Cup Squad, therefore, he had ambition.
He did well in Turkey and he also contributed to Man United's season.
Our fans don't want him so all the best to him at Hoffenheim where he has done well and has unfortunately picked up an injury.

I don't know why he's still our player, why do we loan him out when we could sell him ? He's on his third loan club now, he doesn't seem to want to play for us, we obviously don't want him either, so why is he still on our books ?

Another ALK styled Arthur Conan Doyleesque mystery that makes no sense to us mere mortals mon ami.

I thought there must be something obvious that I'm missing, there must be a reason we still have him under contract, but it's not obvious to either of us then.

They are keeping him for when SD returns.....honestly though surely he would have been a better option than JRod in the PL.JRod has been past it for 3 seasons now whilst Wout still had plenty to offer as a target man.

I agree, far better option than Jay but we clearly don't want him near the place, could there be some clause in his contract that stops us selling him, there must be some reason why we keep a player while treating him like he's a bad smell.
