He says DCL does an interview in he which he says he can't understand it. I totally understand, pundits etc push general analysis of players continually, so they will be under scrutiny. I don't agree with it but if you make yourself a news cycle, then you will be scrutinised.
Scrutiny is fine, its going to be part and parcel as you say and we are most of us obsessed with our clubs if not the sport in general. Its the mentality of jumping to slate players based on pure assumptions that is dumb for me. Criticise a bit maybe if you THINK he is not trying but full on slating and saying bin him or sell as fast we can when a players been in and out with injuries, when the teams been utter crap in creating chances as pointed out above...
The guys done nothing previously to suggest he has a bad attitude and would stop trying IF he had a move lined up. Theres nothing but rumours about transfers and talk of his other interests in life. Judge him on his behaviour up to now and give the benefit of the doubt. Just seems common sense to me, and jumping to negative conclusions based on very little for such a player says a lot about the particular fan. Impatient and irrational is the majority mindset in the fanbase of most clubs.
Not aimed at you like, just in general it annoys me
