I'm sure he's been very well compensated financially. He wasn't good enough. There's no room or need for pity.

That’s a bit harsh, he’s still a human being who’s been through a tough time.

Would you say the same about Lennon or Rose? They were “well compensated financially”

I think the difference can be split between club and fans.
The club needs to be "ruthless", but we as fans can show pity, sympathy, or dissapointment, or whatever for a person who just didn't make it.

All the best to VJ wherever he goes and thanks @Breezer for the information.

Has Janssen been suffering from mental health issues like those two had? Not trying to be smart, genuine question in case I missed something.

What tough time? He came to a club on a contract with financial terms he was obviously happy with, nobody promised him he'll be a starter or anything. It hasn't worked out. The same for thousands of other players through the years. Thanks for the effort but there's no need for an outpouring of pity. Anyway, I'm saying no more about it in here as I like my access.

I can't PM you for some reason, but I can tell you that his move to England did have a big effect on his personal life, and that is ITK. if you want to PM me I will explain

I have put some details in the thread below

Thing is you can't expect people to look at it the same way they do Rose and Lennon if you are the only one who knows there are actual similarities.

That said something like this I think personally you should keep to yourself.

it wasn't anything to do with health issues, have edited my post above

edit again: sorry but I hate seeing a player bashed for reasons, just like we heard about Danny Rose

Oh come on, you're better than that. There's no room for pity on the transfer front from the club, that's a given, they have to do what's right financially as well as for the player and we all know what will usually come first, but where's the harm in a few fans expressing some sympathy? It's a shame it didn't work out for him, that's all.

When can we show some sympathy? After all, they are all well compensated financially, under what circumstances is it allowed? I'd hate to think we're turning into a bunch of heartless ****s for some reason I can't for the life of me understand.

I'm locking this now, because none of it is really for this thread and we need a new thread anyway, I hope the new one doesn't go the same way.
