He will start and get sent off tonight.
No, I don't have proof that he has been late more than twice. But all I will say is that, with the greatest of respect, if anyone thinks he's only been late once while he's been here (and that was sufficient for the club to make a public example of him) they're an absolute moron.
I don't want Moise Kean punished at all. Quite the contrary, I want him in the starting line up. However (and this is the important bit), I recognise that the reason he hasn't been in the starting line up is because of his own poor behaviour, bad attitude and substandard performances on the pitch. If he improves his performances in training and he falls in line, then it's inevitable he will get more minutes on the pitch.
I'm surmising that Marco Silva, a manager in desperate need of a striker, with a wonderkid at his disposal, is either sabotaging himself or the kid is not doing what he's supposed to. As he was dropped by the club for behavioural issues and, in the past, he's been dropped by other managers for similar behavioural issues, I'd guess it's more likely to be the latter, wouldn't you?
He had a good cameo on Sunday. I wouldn't go as far as saying it was impressive, but it was energetic and it provided hope and a spark at a time we desperately needed it. That's a start and it's positive. He needs to build on that. It doesn't negate everything that's happened so far and it's not another stick with which to beat Silva over the head with, to suggest he should have been playing the kid all along.
, we should be gradually giving him longer, like to see him get the second half tonight. But it is a flashpoint game and he has shown a tendency to not back down to anyone. Of course a bit of snide, aggression isn't a bad thing as long as it's in the right place.I'd start him.Don't even think he's ready to start yet, not enough game time, but would like to see him given the whole of the second half.
I'd start him.
He would give Lovren more problems than DCL.
He looks the type to buzz off a big atmosphere too.
No proof then mate thought so your just surmising as I thought. Call me an absolute moron if you like, just don't see why you get so angry when someone tries to defend him.
Kean and richarlison both have that ability the play as inverted wingers so the two up top would be a real handful for the centre backs and would allow Iwobi to drive forwards. Honestly I think because of Bernards work rate he wouldn't even be bad in midfield, verrati is like 5ft 5 so is kante, he could be a real nuisance.
That's unfortunately dcl weakness...finishing.Kean would've buried the DCL chance. Maybe he wouldn't have actually, but I was dead certain that DCL was going to fluff it and he did. And he will next time too. Pointless.
