Dempsey anyone?

[Azzurri]

What he's basically done is walked out of the office and refused to work because his company won't give him a redundancy payoff despite being on £5,000 an hour.

That is not acceptable behaviour. Simple as.

SNIDE. Will suit playing for the kopites for 12 months

But, say, if Arteta would have done this a couple years back, I'd have lost alot of respect for him...

It would have sucked. But really none of my business.

Was Lescott really none of your business?

In what way? He's gone, was replaced, didn't affect my life one bit.

"He has told us he wants to leave and he is not ready to play for this club anymore," Jol on Dempsey.

Silly me, I thought you supported Everton.

Forgive me.

Makes no sense.

Look, it's not a good situation, but I'm never one to place 100% of the blame on the player. These guys have a short career span to make as much money as they possible can, and it's something that can end in an instant. It's easy to sit here and say "I'd never do that" when you really have no hope of making that much money or being in that position.

Fulham don't want to sell him and that's their prerogative. But it's not going to end well for them.

Even journeymen Premiership players are on megabucks. Theres making as much as you can...and theres acting like a prima donna. According to Jol, theres been no offers....so ole Clint may have bit himself on the butt. Great player though.

He's effectively gone on strike according to Jol apparently he thought Liverpool had made an offer and they haven't - what a rancid piece of work - not interested in bandits like this.

 

[cfig]

He's using the only leverage available to him. Doesn't reflect well on him, but Fulham have had 3 months to sort this out and have sat on their hands doing nothing.

I tend to think this way as well. I'll freely admit I'm a fan of his so that does color my view a bit, but he's been pretty open about his desire to make a move and it's not like Fulham can't get anything in return.

 

[toffeechris]

he wants to go to a champions league side he says so rules liverpool out then!!!!

Mate, I would love to play in the champions league too but if nobody has even made an offer for me is it right for me to go on strike in my current job ??? ...he's being an utter tool.

 

[pfim]

I just don't think what he makes and how he makes more is really any of my business. No different than me asking you the same. I understand I'm in the minority here.

So far 2 people have said "hes doing the right thing", I do find it strange that they are both American.

Im not being badly RACIST, im just stating FACHTS.

Never said he's doing the right thing. How could I know that sitting where I am?

"American" isn't a race.
