Wellens - the new Wayne Brown or not

[Steven]

Is his an honest assessment of integrating players into a team or just the ignorance of an unthinking racist git?

Tell us what you think, Steven.

Is this a mountain out of a molehill?

Yes.

 

[Han]

The former.

What he says is right, he just doesn't say it as PC as some might.

 

[TommyK]

He pointed out the obvious - can't see what the problem is.

 

[Miles Away]

Undercutting the potential decisions being made by Sven, isn't he?

 

[SJN-Fox]

Is this a mountain out of a molehill?

I don't even think it gets as high as a molehill.

 

[H T B]

Talk about trying to blow something completely out of proportion.:icon_roll

What he mentions is a very valid point.

When Drogba came to this country, took him over a season to settle, same for others.
Leicester are not in the position to be able to wait. Players have to come in and hit the ground running, so to speak.

Precisely which bit of it did you think warranted your labelling of him as potentially ignorant, unthinking or racist ?

It's stuff like this that gets people with legitimate concerns labelled as the 'PC brigade'. Nothing about what Wellens has said would offend anyone unless they were desperate to be offended.

“I’m just glad it fell to Browny, I don’t think he’s scored in five years,” said Willens [sic] with a laugh.

We were all thinking it - Richie said it.

 

[Miles Away]

Not offended by his comments...let me make that clear...

I just think coming out and questioning Sven's targets is a little silly.

 

[Billyjof]

laughable

I just think coming out and questioning Sven's targets is a little silly.

I don't even think he's guilty of that

One of the most ridiculous thread postings for a long time. Please find something else on which to waste your time (and mine).

Fair enough. But I think below is just a wee bit silly.


But midfielder Wellens declared: "We've been linked to Roque Santa Cruz and Jo which is great but are they going to really do the job?
