[News]Allardyce: Tosun can't cope with cold English weather

[BlueForYou]

Struggling to adapt to the Premier League - he won't, if he's not playing

"No doubting his goalscoring ability" - interesting

[blargins]

To be honest, I could never cope with the cold and damp English weather either. I think that's what makes it the worst. The damp. You can have a dry cold that might be colder, but it's never as bad as a damp cold.

It’s a fucking disgrace is what it is, wake up Mosh and stop this squandering of money, get back to basics, research players, stop the panic buying but most of all tell Sam to shut the fuck up or ship out!
We where better off under Moyes with fuck all looking forward to see if we would sign something close season,
It’s just wanton mismanagement

[Macca77]

Hows he gonna cope when we go to Stoke in a few weeks

The article doesn't include the full quotes, which provide a bit more context:

‘It will be important for him to train really, really hard particularly when you are walking out and it is chucking it down with rain.

‘It is not that he is not used to it but it is freezing cold. When you are on the grass in short sleeves and shorts and a pair of boots players don’t want to stop training and don’t want to stop playing football, in fact we have to stop them and say you have done enough lads. ‘They say: “Lets have another 10-15 minutes.” That is what you get when you get out in the right climate.’

My read on that is that Tosun is being a bit of a pussy when it comes to training in shitty conditions. Which would line up with what @Django's source said about Tosun being a joke in training.

But no, let's all dump on Allardyce instead. Much more fun.

I'd quite happily dump on Allardyce

[SANA_DR0]

for some reason, with Koeman i was ok, i never swore at him, or got to the point where i have random expletives in my head whenever i saw/heard his name.

but with Sam.,, everything  he says makes me cuss out loud.


i just wanted to explain before i said

fuck off you fucking cunt.

Yep, I’ve heard from a mate who is usually pretty clued up with matters at the club that Tosun has been swanning around in training, acting like the big I am. He was worshipped at Beşiktaş and could do what he wanted. He’s struggling here, just being one of the lads and having to fight for his place.

So Allardyce would do anything to keep hold of this dream job he’s blagged...yet he’s keeping a worldly player of the team? Why?

He wouldn't be playing niasse if the lad was showing enough to present himself as a genuine alternative

[Shropshire Blue]

Allardyce makes a rod for his own back by saying considerably more in press conferences etc than any other manager I can remember here. Given he's disliked by so many it gives them ammunition whatever he says.
He'd be better to do like most other managers - say as little as possible in as few a words as possible. Telling us what is happening and why he thinks it's right or wrong is the wrong approach?

This is actually true.

In Vancouver(on the coast) -5 can feel like -15. But in Saskatoon(inland) -5 can feel like +5.

But I can't believe this is actually coming from sam as an excuse.

So... after the debacle of Klassen and Sandro effectively ruining our season, we've spent a further 27 million of our pounds on another player that's a long way from being ready for the league?

Cold is cold when you're locked out in yer skivvies but he's supposed to be a footballer!

Cold and wet feels different when you are at home with your family and mates around you. Its harder to deal with when you are in a foreign country with no friends, going back to an empty house and possibly doubting your career choice.

As for what Sam said, I see nothing wrong with it. The rumours are out in the press about Tosun's lack of effort in training. He's defending his player. I thought that was something we all wanted to see him do.

Look at Keane. Doesn’t look ready does he and he got into the England squad on last seasons premiership performances. It’s our squad and team that is not ready, our managment, not the players.
