Kane hasn’t played since March but has kept himself fit. What’s Dims excuse?

slowpoke · Sep 19, 2021

Depends what you call fit, being fit and being match fit are two different things, he is in training under the supervision of our first team coach Dennis Lawrence believe so let Lawrence do his job and see how things pan out, then let Mark Robins do his job.

Kane hadn’t played a game since March was frozen out at QPR and managed a full 90 minutes

No I trust our manager to do the right thing I think Robins deserves that rather than no marks like yourself sniping from the sidelines

I hope he features in the match squad if fit enough that is.

Where is any evidence he’s as talented as many in this league?

If selected let's hope he doesn't develop an injury

slowpoke · Sep 19, 2021

There is none. But based on how he played last time he was here the element of gamble is worth taking up imo.

I don't thin anybody is trying to get in the manager's way. We're just discussing whats going on in like an open forum format.

That’s what I’m saying and there’s nothing wrong with discussion but we have had some sensational things said on this Bright issue almost all guess work from possibly faking a love ones death to having a drink in Canary Wharf ffs.

None of which is as sensational as claiming he's going to get fit and rip up the Championship

It’ll carry on until Bright makes a match day squad for the first team. Which will be all season probably

What if he never makes a matchday squad? Portsmouth thread levels?

The Philosopher · Sep 19, 2021

Strange world, football. I’m going to ramble for a bit:

These players are young adults, often away from home. I mean, there’s loads of blokes who still live with their parents at 30 these days because they can’t get on the mortgage ladder; young men seem to remain kids for longer. Easy to say “they should grow up”, but society isn’t that way anymore. What are 23 year old doing nowadays? Playing computer games and going on Instagram. 20 years ago? Not likely.

Footballers are pampered. We have dieticians (see Warnock’s comments about telling them to eat breakfast), performance coaches, GPS, analysts. These people cost money.

Bright is costing the club (guess) 5k/week plus a proportion of club overhead (coaching, food, etc).

Hold with me:

Robins, Ady, etc. are from a different generation where they expect young men to be young men and not kids, ie, a bit of self accountability. A lot of the young guys I employ are the same: they make a mistake and it’s someone else’s fault (usually society somehow and their anxiety issues else it’s mine for not holding their hand 24/7). By the time they realise the way the world works it’s too late.

I’ll get to the point. Bright is acting like a kid. He needs mentoring. Perhaps the club should invest in some kind of professional mentor / motivation coach / lifestyle coach.

It might cost 50k per year to employ one. I know we shouldn’t have to but he reality is that some “kids” need putting on track.

Think of how much Bright has cost so far, how much money we will have wasted if we cut him loose, compare that to getting a mentor in and the possible pay off.

20 years ago diet coaches were not thought of much.

Is it time we looked at professional mentors?

Forgive me but I’m not up to speed on the latest regarding Bright, I presume Robins has released an update on the situation, or at least made reference to it.

It sounds almost like you want one of our own players to fail, perhaps simply to prove your own point.

If he is messing the club about then he won't get near the first team and will be out of the door or in the bomb squad pretty quickly.
That doesn't seem to have happened yet so presumably Robins still thinks there is still a chance that he can get properly fit and be a positive influence in the squad.

If Robins thinks that, knowing that he can be ruthless with players who have served him far better than Bright, why keep carping on?

There is no doubt that to challenge for a place in this squad, even to get a place on the bench, Bright will have to work his socks off and be 100% committed to the team. If he reaches that level then great. If he doesn't then it can be put down to a gamble that failed.

What certainly doesn't seem to be the case is that his presence is having any sort of negative effect on team or squad.
In 55 years of watching City I have rarely seen a team so committed, so up for each game.
With this as the case, why not let the story of Bright play out one way or the other instead of appearing so desperate for one of our players to fail?
