It's hilarious, if not pathetic. I've read the interviews with Chapman already and am well aware of what's been said. He's obviously not worked hard enough in training to get ahead of others in the first team. He's had some hard luck with injuries since rejoining, but ultimately it's up to him to get fit and prove to the manager in training that he's good enough to warrant a place in the team. I've not questioned any of that. The only thing I challenged was your comment about his u23 performances. "He had an attitude problem and didnt performed well enough for the under 23 so never deserve a chance in the first team." Last season he scored 2 goals and assisted 4 times in 5 Premier League 2 games. I watched the games against Derby, Leicester and Everton. He scored or assisted in each game and as I said earlier, I felt he was a class above and a real threat in those games I watched. That and his form at Shrewsbury on loan show that there has been a bit of an upturn in his form and attitude, which should hopefully hold him in good stead for next season. No one is getting aggressive at all so please don't suggest it. Its a message board and nothing to get mad about. I was talking about the season when we were allow inside the stadium to watch games live. I wouldn't re-sign Chapman for the coming season Quote

Dack has had 2 ACL injuries, plays for us, whilst Grealish has avoided major injuries and plays for his boyhood club, who are a club moving in the right direction. The season they went up, when I said that, I think Dack was the better player. In fact one of them could have moved for the bones of £20 million , if the rumours are to be believed! Come on. He was never in grealish's class 1 Quote

I wouldn't re-sign Chapman for the coming season I specifically made comment about his u23's performances last season, to which you tried to question how I could have seen them during Covid in a particularly snarky way. His performances for the u23's two seasons ago may well have been poor, but that's old form and not what was being discussed. So you either: A) Raised the point about Chapman's u23's performances two years ago as a slight on me, as there was apparently no possible way I could've seen his u23's games last season if I wasn't in the stadium watching it live. B) Started talking about his u23's performances two seasons ago to fit your agenda that he's been poor and unmotivated (generally but specifically within u23's games as well). When in reality his u23's performances last season were good (from the three games I watched anyway), but he wasn't applying himself enough in training, along with various other reasons no doubt. Neither reflect very well on you, but we'll leave it there. He's signed now, so that's that. Hopefully he gets a couple of games, as it sounds like he's got a point to prove.

unsall Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 2 hours ago, JHRover said: The conclusion I arrived at some time ago is that the people running Rovers thrive in the uncertainty. They certainly don't like sharing information unless they have to - like the training ground stunt. Only thing to draw from it is that it is either bad news that they are scared/embarrassed to release or there's some advantage to them keeping quiet. So basically it’s either bad news or good news, think one of them could be right. Quote

Things are just done at a snails pace, or neglected. It just boils down to things being very amateur, whereas smaller , more organised clubs can thrive in the current climate, we can't Quote
TruRover Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 Johansen would be class btw, got Fulham mates who want him to stay and play for them next season though they accept he should move on based on how the club has treated him. Would no doubt be a coup. 1 Quote

Obviously since their careers have diverged on 2 very different paths and Dack won't be catching him now. You can throw your mind back to then can't you? As in its not now. Do you understand? Dack scored more than double the number of Championship goals Grealish scored that season. I think you're catching up. Good boy. Again, you're struggling to grasp nuanced conversation on Armstrong and are processing it as "slagging". Maybe the adults speaking will click with you some day. Keep reading and learning anyway.

Sitting watching every game on a screen in the same setting has meant they have all blurred into one largely disappointing mess. I think Buckley has a great first touch, good feet, a lot of awareness and is a good passer off the ball. Most of his weaknesses appear to be physical, which can be worked on to a degree, certainly more so than technical ability. I'll help you with this...there are none. He's been awful all of last season. Hope that helps! 2 Quote

neophox Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 (edited) Think we may try to get Harwood-Bellis back. Johansen and Reach would both be good replacements for Holtby and Trybull. Johansen is a leader and a good player for this division and Reach would be even better in a better team. They would both add experience in a youth side and both would be cheap except for wages..
