KSV Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 If it is a clause that can't be good for morale. The rest of the players are probably just as perplexed as us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packoman Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Cleverley again, just makes no sense. Also not sure dropping Benteke will help, I get that he's been poor but Gabby has been one of our worst players this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoD Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The talk of a clause in Cleverly's contract makes no sense. He isn't going back to man utd, why would they care if he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 The talk of a clause in Cleverly's contract makes no sense. He isn't going back to man utd, why would they care if he plays. Maybe his agent insisted on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Cannot believe he has the stones to drop Benteke. Certainly makes you wonder why Cleverley keeps being trotted out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 It seems strange that Man Utd would insist on such a clause as Cleverly has no future there anyway. I really think Lambert simply rates Cleverly and wants him to start games. Which is frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiezels Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Dropped the players who were shite last week, big deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 7, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 7, 2015 I'm ok with that lineup. I like that Benteke has been dropped. And dropping Sanchez is odd but he WAS terrible against Arsenal. Hopefully this will send the message that performances like that aren't acceptable. Cleverley is crap, but if Sanchez is being dropped then he has to play as Westwood will be DM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Westwood is a safer DM option, won't make the mistakes that Sanchez makes. Hopefully the potential yield in playing Sanchez is greater. Probably the right decision on balance. Cleverley though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted February 7, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 7, 2015 I'd have rather seen Sinclair start wide with Gabby dropped. I hope it's Weimann being played through the middle and not gabby Westwood is a safer DM option, won't make the mistakes that Sanchez makes. Hopefully the potential yield in playing Sanchez is greater. Probably the right decision on balance. Cleverley though. Cleverley has to play if Sanchez is dropped though really. Delph, Cleverley and Westwood are probably the best midfield 3 if there's no Sanchez and Gil is wide Cannot believe he has the stones to drop Benteke. Certainly makes you wonder why Cleverley keeps being trotted out. If Sanchez hadn't been shite last week I'm sure Cleverley wouldn't be playing today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troon_villan Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Relatively happy with the line up. Had to drop Benteke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosofsaunders Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Happy with that to be honest. Sanchez worst games for us have been against the big sides. Benteke needs s kick up the arde. Plenty of pace and work rate in there. Keep it as tight as possible and bring on the beast after an hour all angry and dying to kick john terry in the head 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 At least the two up top will work hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packoman Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Sanchez shouldn't be dropped though, he would do a much better job than Cleverley in the same position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffy Biro Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 **** off Cleverley, so **** sick of seeing his name now. Sanchez dropped for a poor game? Well Cleverley has been shit in every one of his games. There is some sort of agreement here definitely, it may not be a clause but something is definitely going on, not even Lambert would play him every week if he didn't have to. Hate to go off on one player and our problems are much deeper than just him but i've had enough of Cleverley being the first name on the teamsheet every week.

AValon Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Sanchez was awful last week, but he's still the most involved player we possess. For that, I don't believe he should have been dropped. Benteke may as well have a rest because he still won't see much service. Oh, and Richardsons just shit. Should Sinclair have started though....hmm?
