Ah who gives a shit, football fans can be such snowflakes sometimes. Call a player a word removed at the ground and online when they dont play well, then cry when they get shushed. Get a grip. Not necessarily aimed at you…. Edited March 18 by spiezels 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look personally - I am too long in the tooth to care, and as I mentioned in my op - I don’t see Zaniolo as being a self entitled player, he just doesn’t strike me as this, but equally, when you give up your Sunday to travel to the smoke, pay a fortune for a seat in an atmosphere less stadium - And let’s be clear, many of those present yesterday would not be detractors of him, do you really want to see this from one of your own players? I’m just a little bit like - Come mate, see the bigger picture here, and I am a fan of his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just a little bit like - Come mate, see the bigger picture here, and I am a fan of his. There's been some articles written saying he's a flop, fans don't like him, he's failed. On here and I'd imagine on the Musk fake news machine there's been people calling him shite every time he's played. If he's even seen/heard like a fraction of it I'd imagine it would piss you off. For me it's nothing to get upset about unless you've been calling him names on X. Or you write for the Birmingham Mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_82 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Hes been crap, one goal doesnt change that and running round shushing fans is pathetic - Go on a run of scoring and playing well and maybe but facts are he has more yellow cards than goals and assists, usually for stupidity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 You can get carried away by the odd good moment. He took his.goal well. Was in the right position and executed the finish very well. That hasn't always been the case. Earlier in the season he started games and was missing chance after chance. No problem with him starting against wolves. Let's see what he can do from the start.

I don't think too many people are truly upset about it, I think it sums of players like Rashford and Zaniolo (possibly , I've not seen enough of him) they're absolutely terrible for months on end then score a tap in and are giving it the big one. I find it funny tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Captain_Townsend Posted March 18 Popular Post Share Posted March 18 Personally, given it's out best season since I was a ten year old, I don't think anyone in the squad deserves abuse and I do raise my eyebrows at some of the comments about the fringe players. He has scored two important goals now. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted March 18 VT Supporter Share Posted March 18 10 hours ago, PieFacE said: I've assumed that his lack of playing time is down to us not wanting to make the deal permanent. Suspect if he plays x amount of minutes we'd be forced to buy him. I think it's probably more down to the fact that he's been really really bad most of the time he's played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterSw Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Getting to that stage of the season where he is playing for his place in the Italy euro squad and a possible permanent transfer to Villa (or another team) and he is starting to show what a good player he is. Hopefully he keeps it up until the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watkins has been guilty of doing this as recently as a couple of months back. I'll go check his thread for consistency in your judgement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 A lot of chips on shoulders, I sense those who ‘never want to see him in our shirt again’ are determined to take offence at a gesture they want to interpret as against them. If you dish it out accept some back. Maybe be less sensitive and celebrate the goal? Looked determined and energetic, definitely playing for the shirt and scored. Does that alter the narrative? Moussa has been poor for a decent stretch but doesn’t seem to get the hate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
