Ah fuck it.

LENNON IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Hasn't been for years, has never improved and pace is only useful if you have some nous and guile to go with it.
He has one pass into the box and zero cajones when it comes to making decisive contributions. His shooting is weak and infrequent as are his goals and assists.
He is a grunt, a follower, a player that will pass the buck, shirk responsibility, cry off over nothing and has relied on his pace and discipline to remain firmly in his comfort zone for many, many seasons.

We are moving into a higher echelon that doesn't match little Aaron's capabilities.

Just ask Bus Conductor.


How many said this when he scored against the scum

Looks like Lennon's going for sure then?
At the very least we want to sell him.
Maybe last week vs Palace was the final straw, he was anonymous.

Daws and Walker will be on AVB's 'to do' list as well. He won't tolerate their consistent, habitual errors. Their time is limited if they can't minimise the brain farts.

Oh, and defoe goes without saying. He probably knew he wanted rid as soon as he got here.

No way should we let Lennon go, fair enough Andros has looked good of recent but people forget that Lennon was one of our most important players for a large part of last season.

So according to ITK who's on and who's off now?

Churches
Halilvolokov
Lamela
Pork n cheeser winger
Lajijic
Ade
Benny
Lennon
Anyone else?

(I will bother learning how to spell their names when they sign for us)

Townsend - what was it £9m? Blimey. Siggy to Germany? (not sure this one was ITK though)

I'd rather have Lennon in the team than Chadli everytime, and I reckon every premiership full back would agree given the choice of who to mark, so......

Ozil definitely won't come here, Mata probably wouldn't. Regardless, it is imperative we get more creativity at CAM. Absolutely mandated. What we have is good enough for maybe top four. One player could see us comfortably top four, disappointed to not at least have a look at the title come March.

What do you think about Jasper saying Eriksen is ours to say no?

what a dumb move that would be to sell lennon we need to have a large squad to compete on all levels and that means you need options lennon gives you that , everyone who thinks that townsend is the better player is dumb he needs to do it week in week out and so far hes fallen well short in todays game he was just ok and if lennon was fit he would of made a better fist of things and if you put him up for sale there would be a long que for him , you dont sell your best players if you dont have to .

So we have
Lennon
Chadli
Townsend
As our wide players plus Lamela if that deal gets done
Does think we will sell Lennon if Lamela falls through? Don't we need him as part of the home grown squad rules?
If he goes we would need a replacement surely? He are competing in 4 competitions this year so we will need cover.

no Lennon...Chadli and Townsend are better...Lennon loses the ball, and only cuts out everytime...Chadli is more versatile.

Not sure how you can say Townsend has fallen well short when that's his first league start. He always looked good in cup games against weak teams. Except perhaps when Harry played him left back.

He was great for QPR and remember his age. He is doing things that Lennon has never done, and he is fearless.

I agree though, having the two gives us strength in depth, and we need to keep 4 capable wide forwards, including Lennon.
