Well no, because lots of people are calling for both to be dropped.

Yes but people are going "we know they are good players because look at last year"

Thats the exact argument

The fans that watch him weekly say he looks unfit and they perform better without him in the team. It's not like the hate has come from nowhere, I'm pretty sure they love him there generally.
Get him fit you've got a hell of a player but that might be easier said than done. I'll always support the player if he comes back but I can't see it. If he moves abroad at least we can stop this every window.

They are playing him LM out of position.

That you’ve invented a Frank Lampard that doesn’t exist to justify your own opinions.

They're players though, not people we're talking about signing.
Not mañy would be happy about signing Wright based on the last 3 months.

People were saying Josh Sargent would have been a great signing and their ideal transfer and hes scored less than Wright this year so doubt that.

You don't think Lampard is trying to implement a professional ethos at the club and your evidence is a photo of him with a cigar after winning a trophy, dear me.

He’s well known for smoking throughout his career and for being overweight during it. But you’ve invented his hyper fitness focused manager when there’s no evidence to claim “Lampard wouldn’t want him”

Dear me indeed. Just say it’s your opinion FFS

Yeah this season he’s still better than our other options who are apparently super fit but still not as good at football. And you know I pay to watch football not the swimsuit contest.

I’m not going to pretend Gus isn’t the most entertaining player I’ve seen at the city in 30 odd years so I’m bias. But unless we’ve got someone better lined up £6m on him seems a no brainer. He’s proven in the PL as well.

And his wages?

If we were prepared to offer him the wage he'd demand, why have we not done so previously for anyone else?

Neither of whom look unfit.

To be back to their best, they need to find belief and form. Hamer has to change his lifestyle.

He's not known for being overweight.
That was invented by bitter West ham fans.
You accuse some city supporters of being the same but the evidence regarding Gus is there to see.

And regardless of what type of career a player has they can still be 'hyper focused' on fitness as a manager. I'll ask again, do you think Lampard isn't trying to implement a professional fitness regime at the club and if so what's your evidence?

Rudoni looks like he's carrying his shoulder injury still so I'd class that as unfit.

Even if that's a factor, it's not because he eats too much.

It's not happening,
1. No way they would sell for 6m, figure is so low its stupid
2. They ain't selling their POTS to us, even if they were touting him out for 6m elsewhere, our price would be more
3. Would Doug really push for a player that wanted out?
4. Wages would be an issue.

It's just not happening.

Let's just let it die and get back to the 37 year old wonderkid

Has Wilder said Hamer is unfit down to his lifestyle out of curiosity?

Not in the same way that not living as healthily as you should is.

If Rudoni's not fully fit, then that's through bad fortune. If Hamer's not, it's through personal choice.

I'm not knocking Hamer, btw, football's clearly a job, not a lifestyle, for him. That's great, but it means he's not the player he could be.

No chance, he's always been quite heavy set but he's definitely bigger now.
