ferguson1 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Liked him at Forest, but he really has regressed with us and appears out of his depth. Perhaps he doesn’t even care, but he will never play for a club as big as us in the future. Wasted talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Such a nothing footballer. But then we’ve made him a millionaire so the jokes on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumstopdogs Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 At 29 years old he has possibly played his best football already. Time to try and move him on IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 He has been playing well in the cups and working hard but he was circumnavigated today on the basis that we were against a passing side and he cannot run....and we are the worst organised side going. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Zatman Posted January 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Lansbury is a good footballer but has no engine or legs anymore. Would look good in a slower paced league in Europe We have had dickheads steal a living here with rotten attitudes. He is not one of them Edited January 4, 2020 by Zatman 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 He has never been good for us. I don’t expect anything else from him now. He does try though and does not seem to be disruptive in any way. For his own good he needs to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villastine Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Has had more than his fair share of chances. Move him on now, surely we have young players more deserving of game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) I think the point is we can’t shift him on given the amount he earns here. No point paying someone else to take him. I do not like this player. Reminds me of a more passive Stephen Ireland. apparently a nice guy though. Throw him on the pile of expensive mistakes in the last 15 years.

Hornso Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 According to Gregg Evans he's been linked with a move to a couple of Championship clubs, but would have to take a big pay cut. Do we keep him around for depth, although he can't cut it at this level or do we get his wages off the books whilst we have the chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically another Hourihane with far less goals and assists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 The remainer of his contract with us is worth £3m in wages, if reports are true that he's on £40k a week, so probably not going to want to leave, and I doubt a championship club would be willing to pay half of that salary let alone match it, and that's not even taking into consideration the transfer fee that we'd want. Only way I could it happening is if it was a similar deal to the one we did with small heath and Gary Gardner, where we agreed to subsididediedieseid someofthewages. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Seems like a nice chap. Good for photo shoots and an extra body in training. Technically, he could've been a player. But games just pass him by: his lack of pace is incredible. I'm a bit sick of us being the home for the 'I-might-have-been-good-once-upon-a-time-but-injuries-caught-up-with-me-but-I'll-hang-about-nonetheless-because-I'm-a-nice-guy' players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move him on now, surely we have young players more deserving of game time. This is actually what pisses me off about the FA Cup game Sat. If it was such a nothing game which I think it was surely we should have played more of our youth players and given them more game time than the few pathetic minutes they got. Which will probably be the only senior game time they get this year. Awful decision sticking with the same plodders on Sat. I see kids make their debuts at 16 against us. Ours make debuts in their late teens or early 20's due to the drivel we've continually had on our books the last 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if someone would take him I'm not sure if we have the squad depth to just let him go without bringing in a replacement, even if he so far hasn't been up to PL standard. If we could afford a better replacement I'd be happy for us to subsi-didelidoo some of his wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I just find it mad we gave him and Taylor four and a half year deals. We were a mid table championship club in January 2017 handing out lucrative deals. Much rather have given them 3 and a half year deals and then had a renewal two years later like we did with Hourihane. If they didn't want to sign and went off elsewhere well no great loss as we've seen with their general performance since joining. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
