ChrisVillan Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I like the guy but he's so obviously not what we need at this level. No two ways about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But pales in comparison to the experience we have in John Terry. Look, Bjarnason wasn’t going to get into the starting eleven anyway, and if all he can bring is experience (which, again, of the PL he has none) and not much in the way of ability, then what’s the point?

John Terry?? Is he player? Seriea sampdoría,pescara championsleague exp. also. Could have been good to have that kind of player in squad.Showed good performance when he played in pre games. But i think DS has already in mai decide this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 It's just occurred to me . . . I'll never have to listen to Rigo calling him 'Bin Yarnason' ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't make up for a significant lack of ability. He's crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 just scored for Iceland, bit surprised he hasnt found a club yet as thought he would have had something lined up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don_Simon Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I've just seen this in off topic. Not only did i not know he'd left the club, i hadnt even wondered why he wasnt in match day squads. Cheers for the Wolves goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 It seems a bit odd that he left as he did and has not yet joined a club, unless he has a ton of offers and he’s trying to decide but I’m not seeing any real benefit for him or us under the current situation. Had he become a bad egg within the squad? Never struck me as the kind but what do we know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he is looking for offers closer to home, he was apparently living out of a hotel in all his time here and was a bit of a loner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he can play in northern Scotland and fly in. Maybe Greenland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understand footballers or managers who live out of hotels. Mourinho did it at United for years if I remember right. Why? Surely it's cheaper to just rent an apartment somewhere?

Exactly and it's not like there aren't any around either, any major city now has high rise apartments going up all over the place. It's inexcusable really.

ciggiesnbeer Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 It is very strange he hasnt found a club yet. Regardless of his suitability for us surely he is more than good enough for a lot of Championship teams? As others have said we must be missing some information I guess. I wish him well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
