Player Topic: Fernando (2015/16)

[blueinsa]

Once again I got hammered on here pre-match when I called Manuel out on his decision making. I'm afraid Fernando proved me right again, and I'm fed up of being right when I call Manuel out. I want Manuel to make the right decisions, I don't want to have to call him out.

I'm fucking sick of it.

Modest as always.

The worrying thing is, he's shown no indication in the past that he will have an epiphany and change it. The only changes he makes to his baffling tactics is when his hand is forced.

" Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
This suits Mp so well.

You're really starting to get very fucking tedious. If you don't like my posts then you can ignore them. If you want to blindly follow Manuel and pretend his decisions are fine then do so, you don't have to follow up every single one of my posts on the subject. Posts which are proven right time and time again during the match.

As of late he is getting the starting 11 wrong and then more importantly the changes even more wrong.

Your complete lack of self awareness would have Brendon Rodgers blushing!

Might have improved since last season but still no where near our level. If he was up for sale no other top sides would be interested. Delph and Dinho far more mobile and harder in the tackle as wel as being better on the ball and both capable of sitting in front of the defence. Fernando should be cup games and easy home games when 3-0 up.

That Newcastle boy #5 seems not a bad player

I was really patient with Fernando last season and thought he'd come good, but that was a shocking performance by Fernando yesterday. So poor for both of Stoke's goals, especially the second. I wouldn't expect a kid making his debut to be as rash as that.

I'm really not sure Fernando is good enough for us.

Surely you don't need more convincing.

The ginger ninja used to tackle better than Fernando and that's saying something

 

[Yoyo Man]

when he joined...had very high hopes of him. His transition from octopus to octopussy going well...

 

[bondsman]

No pace. Can't head. Can't tackle. Can't pass forwards or further than 5 yards.

Makes Garcia look like fucking Matthias

I've just read that he's never played more than 26 league games in one season during his career and that includes sub appearances. So how did we expect him to ever become a top premier league player?

I'd love to know what criteria were applied to our decision to sign him, it just completely baffles me.

Fernando is nowhere near as bad as he is portrayed on here

Second half of the season I thought he played well..this season will be the acid test..

He really seems to struggle to get back into it, after an injury.

The Portuguese League is 30 games a season, how many games are you expecting him to play? Throw in cups and CL and he averaged about 40 games a season. No idea how any of this is supposed to be relevant either tbh.
