Can we get him into the jungle at this short notice?

Well, he’s certainly had some experience in the bush.

Kyle Walker, John Stones, KDB and Ilkay Gundogan have been wonderful servants of this football club.
But it's evident that gravity has finally caught up with them.
I thank them for their service these many years. It's time to say goodbye.

Unfortunately he's had his Gary Neville moment

You are probably correct. The difference/problem will be that Neville is quite open that he knew he was done. I’m not sure Walker will be so self aware.

He didn't learn to position himself, because he's arrogant, he probably thought he'd have the same pace all his life,no mate you won't. He used to get away with it, because of his pace, but now that can't save his poor positioning.

 

[Keeper!]

Clearly struggling. Lost his pace and it's like losing his 'superpower'.

My issue is the captaincy.
Leaders are people who set an example. He doesn't shirk, he doesn't hide, but I would want my captain to be someone I looked up to.

His 'off the antics' raise questions about his personality and his loyalty.

Players in my experience are strange characters, I agree from the outside Walker is the last person you would expect to be a captain but the rest of the players clearly don't feel the same.

Two of the last kit men, Ginger and "chappy" did my head in with their childish antics but again the players seems to love it!

The players still are comfortable with Walker being captain. Nothing us supporters can do to really alter that decision.

When the line up comes out and I see Walker's name on it I know we will be conceding and struggling for a result. I don't give a fuck who is injured Walker is no longer an option. All the great servant stuff aside in the now keep him off the pitch period.
