Bobbyboy Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 Really all hangs on the JRod/Schneiderlin thing now, doesn't it? it's going to go one way or the other, and it seems like the question of if they stay or go now determines everything. Either the fightback starts here, or they're all a bunch of liars and continue to roll over. Additionally, obviously, Kruger cannot stay if J-Rod/Morgan go. I think some kind of endgame is being reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyNumber7 Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 I actually thought he spoke pretty well. He couldn't have been more emphatic in saying Jay and Morgan WILL stay, and it seems there will be players incoming very soon. Would love to believe him, only time will tell. I'm angry at what has happened like most are, but I think some just want to criticise for the sake of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 They are not for sale... There is always a tipping point. F*cking b*ll****ter. The "tipping point" comment was referring to the number of transfers (i.e. we've transferred 5 and we can't/won't go beyond that)...he wasn't saying there's a tipping point in terms of the amount of any future offers for JRod or Morgan. When he first said it I winced like you but then he clarified what he meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevvy Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 Well I am willing to give him the benefit of doubt. Easy to not say anything, but at least he did. Let's hope the new signings do make people sit up and listen. Onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 It's gone beyond what he or Les or even Ron says. It's actions they will be judged on. I would be amazed if Morgan is still here come Sept 1st. If he isn't, then his position is untenable and he will have to go - or fans will force him out. It will get ugly.

Wiggles31 Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 Pretty honest sounding interview. Lets see the actions first. Based on what he said Koeman has the best part of £90m available to spend on players/wages. I'm not as doom and gloom as I was yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 "We see them as a part of our core group of players," added Krueger. "Those stories being passed around are quite simply false.

Toon Saint Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 As I have said about a trillion times this Summer, let's calm down, wait and see and judge come September. The confusion and stress some of you must be feeling must be really draining. Most people will adjust their moods dependant on the news (actual news not just PR) that they hear from the club. Some will be more extreme in their views, some less so, but that is their prerogative. Please stop telling people what they should be feeling, when they are hysterical, when they should calm down, it is incredibly arrogant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sour Mash Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 Now...what do we make of that? Agree, we could well be looking at a couple of their players, not sure how well the club would get on with MP though, or maybe it's out of his hands. One query on Krueger's statement - is Koeman really going to spend all this money before the season starts? It'd be a ridiculous recruitment spree in terms of players in over a short time.

Minty Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 Interestingly the main thing I picked up from the section about players who want to 'short-cut' into Europe is that we actually want players to be loyal to the club and to earn their European football with the club. Given all our discussion about loyalty, I'm sure we would all agree with the sentiment, and if we could do it would be truly amazing... but realistically, is that going to happen?

Greenridge Posted 29 July, 2014 Share Posted 29 July, 2014 The most interesting of all of today's interviews. My take on the Morgan and JRod situation is that they were going to be sold but the fans backlash has prompted them to pull the plug on these deals. When Adam asked if they had been told they weren't going and what was their reaction Ralph said he didn't want to discuss their emotions. Of course I could be wide of the mark but I believe they are not happy chappies right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bit about what our plan is was very woolly and didn't really say much whereas IMO I think that should be something that is easy to describe and should be something everyone is working towards.
