    If we're guessing clubs, I'm going for Bristol City or Coventry.

    I'm gonna stick my neck out and defend him here.

    I don't really understand why so many people are so quick to write him off as having a bad attitude - when they've never even met the guy. I agree that we were probably the wrong club for him given our situation but you know, he's spent years coming up through the ranks at Arsenal and now finds himself at Barnsley with the likes of Dawson getting a game ahead of him - wouldn't you be a bit sluffened with life..? I can imagine he's massively disappointed, having expected to get games. Sure, he hasn't pulled up any trees when he has played but he's looked alright in the limited time I've seen of him and will surely turn out to be a decent player. Whether he gets back to the Premier League is a different matter. I think he's a victim of his own image in many respects and it seems quite easy to paint a mental picture of what he might be like without actually knowing him. For what it's worth, I thought he came across OK in the BarnsleyPlayer interview when he first joined.

    In short, he's 22 years of age and I think we should cut him some slack.

    I might be completely wrong of course, he could turn out to be a right greedy, work-shy ****-wit but at 22 I'll be giving him the benefit of the doubt.

    what about if he signs for a club outside of the UK.

    My other guess would be Ipswich MM's apparently a big fan of Emmanuel too.

    You may be right, or you may be wrong. My argument is about his attitude more than about his ability. He's been garbage for us and he's embarrassed our club, even from the day he signed and "that" photo.

    I think he's a waste of a shirt and I can't wait for him to leave. Feel free to resurrect this when he's pulling trees up next season.

    There is no better club than Barnsley Football Club.

    If he took a look at THE hot prospect, the player on everyones lips in English football right now, John Stones, he'd see that he's at the perfect club to reignite his career.

    He is the total opposite to John though. And with you admiring Stonesy so much, I feel quite sad that you can't see it.

    Seen him enough times.

    He doesn't give a **** about barnsleyfc nor his team-mates. His performance at Huddersfield was appalling. He was a ****ing idiot against Wednesday.

    Good riddance. He'll be playing against us next season, in league 1.

    I believe it's his attitude which is stopping him from getting more game time. He's very vocal on twitter and has made several 'jokes' about Barnsley and his team mates. It isn't particularly professional. My employer wouldn't be happy if I was making jokes about them or my Co - workers online.

    Right, name the leagues which are better or equivalent to championship in europe and I'll still have this bet.

    If bobby Hassell had made that snapchat video, you'd have gone berserk on here about him.

    FACT.

    Perfectly summed up the point I'm trying to make.

    My point with "He's a Barnsley player for goodness sake" is that people are calling him 'a disgrace' and worse things on facebook based on... what?
    People assume he is a d*** in real life without knowing him, which doesn't seem fair.

    If somebody knows him really well and knows he's a d*** then fair enough

    Think Hemsworth will win this, Wayne.

    As much as I think Frimpong has been poor for us, I still believe there's a player in there. Someone will gamble. Maybe Rochdale would be good for him? Keith loves a challenge.

    As it stands he's not worth your benefit of the doubt. Trust me
