Would you have him back? Loved him in his loan spell but think his personal problems have got the better of him now. No for me.
Wages would be the issue. If his head was right i would have him but he is probably too expensive for us.
I have no doubts that our management team could get the best out of him. Chopra and O'Grady up front would frighten the life out of defenders, but my main worry is that basically he comes across as a bit of a bell-end and it seems to me that with the spirit and togetherness we have in the squad right now, bell-ends are not high on the priority list.
100% no.... we do not need Prima Donna's like him I would rather get a lower league guy like Wiseman, Perkins, Hassell who have no "Billy Big ******" attitude. Than the "I AM" kinda player that Chopra, Howard, and that Jock **** we got from Donny who fecked off to Wolves at the earliest chance. We stayed up this term on a wing and a prayer, but it was kinda like a "Battle of Britain" scenario ... Never/so few so many etc. AND before anyone starts I am not being disrespectful there. 32 years in the Royal Air Force should say otherwise. But No them lads have had that 'Dunkirk spirit' that 'Bulldog Breed... they have given us back "BATTLING BARNSLEY" and made us all extremely proud. Yes Flitcroft gives the pre match talk and the half time talk...but its always if they take it onto the pitch, and for the most these lads have done that.
I'd have him back in a heartbeat. If he'd have had the chances Dagnell has had this year we'd have a 20 goal a season striker. Without a doubt. Wages would be the biggest issue. I dont doubt for a second Flitcroft could get him integrated into the team spirit.
No chance. You've only to read his twitter to realise what a moron he is. I'd rather we kept our current foursome, and perhaps got a Premier League kid (Powell at Manure) on a season loan.
Re: 100% no.... we do not need Prima Donna's like him Agree with every word of that - I think you've just described perfectly why we survived and Wolves didn't
Not sure he's up to it at the moment, don't think his heart/mind is in it. On his day he's absolutely brilliant - but looks a pale shadow of himself if you ask me. My view would be that he's got his eye on a signing-on fee somehwer first & foremost. Supposedly on £18k/wk at Ipswich btw.
I would rather have a younger player coming in who Flitcroft can develop. Chopra has too much baggage. We don't want a player who is more interested in what won the 3.30 at Epsom than the who won the game. His life style isn't one our younger players could look up to.
Tweet from Chopra- Michael Chopra @MichaelChopra10 6 May Just coz I'm on the transfer list does not mean I hav 2 leave I hav 1 year left on my contract its down 2 the player if he wants 2 go or not Sounds to me like hes happy to sit on his 18k a week wages all year. This man doesnt care about the football anymore his life is ruled by money and gambling. Definitely not the type of lad we want in the camp. Would rather have Marlon who isnt the greatest player but is a fantastic role model for our other players.
Aye, I suppose it's all about opinions. I'll forget his twitter idiocy, and still say no thanks. Big Marlon every time.
