To be honest i don't think Sheehan will ever break into our 1st team, we may as well have just sold him
according to the OS AS has gone to mansfield on loan for a month
Of course you also think McCarthy is rubbish and we should get rid of him so maybe your judgement isn't as accurate as one would hope.
Or maybe you are yet to be proved right.
I'm not putting him down, good look to Sheehan and if he does eventually break into our 1st team then good on him. I just don't think it's very likely and you'll get more money for players when they're young
We'd get more money if he plays 5-10 games for them
I have never been impressed by Sheehan, never thought he looked very good. But good luck to him and I hope this loan move provides the desired effect.
This could be what Sheehan needs, an opportunity to gain some useful experience and matches at a level where he should be able to gain some confidence
Well I thought this kid looked very useful indeed in a big problem area for us, could be over zealous at times but thats youth..................... I was informed that he allegedly was involved in arguements with one or two senior players and they did'nt like his forthright comments to them, and thats why he has'nt been picked
I think some of his problems (e.g. with the other players, with on-field discipline) might actually relate to over-confidence, or misplaced-confidence. He seems very much a person who thinks he knows all the answers; I would imagine that he feels that he has little to learn. His apparent disdain for supporters is very noticeable as he arrives at the ground; he is likely to breeze past without a word whereas most other players, old and young, will stop for a quick word or to give an autograph.
I might have said the same thing about Chris O'Grady a year ago who presents a very different figure after his dose of reality-therapy at Boston. Perhaps a period at Mansfield will similarly affect Alan Sheehan.
