markjazzbassist Posted July 27, 2015 Report Share Posted July 27, 2015 Should've gone last season. Look, no one really doubts his potential impact on the team; we don't really have another player like him. But for 60k a week to sit on the bench, it's time to say thanks and good luck to him yeah i was really hoping when he was linked to moyes at sociedad he would have left. oh well, another year in the bleachers watching the team and he'll be off in a year's time.

For a trained physio Martinez is a bit of an idiot when it comes to returning players. Elston Gunnn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 I'll be honest, I was expecting to read he got injured playing again for the u21s When Patto said he played 45 minutes I was going to reply, "did he have to come off due to injury?"

JoeQuince Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 When Patto said he played 45 minutes I was going to reply, "did he have to come off due to injury?" Sadly, this was my first thought when I saw that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 If we can get 45 out of him I'd be happy. We'd be much further up the league if we had a fit pienaar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howard's way Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 Naaar, he had plenty of chances to prove himself before the last injury. I'm kind of sick of seeing him fall over the ball to get the foul just because he turned back due to lack of speed and run into a hole. He will always have a great brain but this league kills you if your off the pace. Sorry to say he hasn't got it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame really because the Pienaar of 3 or 4 years ago would've been perfect in this side. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame really because the Pienaar of 3 or 4 years ago would've been perfect in this side. He would, but like you say, been absent for too long. Loved to be proved wrong, but I think everything's against him at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue 250 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 At his best, he would have been the first name on the team sheet ( for me ). Clever player who's link up play with Baines was as good as any partnership I've ever seen. Every team needs a player like he or Osman to get by the parked bus, shame both players are past their best.

pete0 Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Should never have bought him back, best spell was his loan. His fee plus wages have been an absolute waste. Disloyal money grabber and we took him back, Moyes dropped a clanger buying him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 He's only thirty-three, never been a player who relied on pace so no issue there; personally think he still may have something to offer. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deacs Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Except he's now showing signs of getting fit . Again. The same has been said repeatedly for two years now. Great player in his day but done I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideliner Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 football is a profession - in any other profession you will not be earning big fees if you can not produce the goods - in the end it is a business decision - a promising young player can be carried for a while but not an expensive old one - Pienaar must come to the party or go home Tough for me as S african to say - but business is business same applies to Gibson and Osman - unfortunately we all have a sell by date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Except he's now showing signs of getting fit . ill believe it when he's played 90 mins, he's done this too often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Btay Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 I still think he is the closest we have to that silva/mate type player. I hope he still has a bit to offer but regardless of what happens he has contributed alot to the club minus the Tottenham saga.

MC11 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Fit for weekend. Looks like he'll be in squad for Dag & Red at weekend. Fingers crossed he can get some game time. I'd absolutely love it if we could get him back in the first team! Can't see it though Matt and duncanmckenzieismagic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 I don't consider him a squad member any more - sadly. 33 and had some time consuming injuries. Great player in his prime. Romey 1878, Btay, Lowensda and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
