And you are using this as fact. Bidwell may work hard and be part of the team, but doesn't confirm he doesn't moan or be unhappy about not sharting. Bidwell may well be unhappy about not starting but decides to work hard to get his place back.Assumption? Lampard plays players that work hard and is part of the team. He plays them players. This isn't an assumption. He has stated so himself.
You stated the opposite to what I said without the slightest bit of evidence. This is an assumption.
Are you saying he is shite because we haven't signed anyone from La Liga 2 before?What signings have we plucked from La Liga 2? What are the examples?
If you pull out Gyokeres, I wanted him signed straight away:
21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread
…yeah so he got a better offer we couldn’t match. A better offer we wouldn’t match more likely. I think it was the extra year that clinched it for Bristol rather than cashwww.skybluestalk.co.uk
And what Lampard has said in the past doesn't count?And you are using this as fact. Bidwell may work hard and be part of the team, but doesn't confirm he doesn't moan or be unhappy about not sharting. Bidwell may well be unhappy about not starting but decides to work hard to get his place back.
Too be honest neither of you haver any facts either way
Are you saying he is shite because we haven't signed anyone from La Liga 2 before?
Some seem to think so.Has Bidwell stopped working hard in training this season?
has Lampard said that Bidwell doesn't moanAnd what Lampard has said in the past doesn't count?
Who? Based on what?Some seem to think so.
Yes. Called him a very good pro.has Lampard said that Bidwell doesn't moan
Saying hes a good pro is not the same as saying he doesn't moan and its not happy about not startingYes. Called him a very good pro.
So a good pro moans about not being chosen to play most of the timeSaying hes a good pro is not the same as saying he doesn't moan and its not happy about not starting
Seven-Goran Eriksson called Gary Neville very very professional but also a professional moaner
Most managers say the expect all footballers not be be happy if they are notSo a good pro moans about not being chosen to play most of the time
Why is it the same people defend sparks every time he is shown to be wrong and come out with rubbish like this?Most managers say the expect all footballers not be be happy if they are playing
I'm not defending Sparks, he can look after himself, his is not right or wrong, like you he doesn't know as a fact. My point is you are treating assumptions as fact that you can't back up unless you are on the training ground or in the changing room. You have no idea what Bidwell or any player is like.Why is it the same people defend sparks every time he is shown to be wrong and come out with rubbish like this?
Of the 13 defensive metrics last season, Dasilva was better than Bidwell in just 4 of them. And two or those are ground duels which includes both defensive and offensive duels, which will be skewed as Dasilva dribbles and Bidwell doesn't.
If Bidwell was an actual moaner, big difference between that and someone who would just generally like more playing time btw, he'd have been out of the door with Bassette. Lampard talks about the spirit in the group often, he wouldn't allow shit like that.
Perhaps its because I'm offering an opinion and people agree with it. You are not the final say on things. People have conflicting opinions.Why is it the same people defend sparks every time he is shown to be wrong and come out with rubbish like this?
Are you all the same person?
Agreed. Will never be considered to be a part of the 1st team without injuries but always relied on to play his part.I think this is also why Jamie Allen is still around and seems to be so liked by managers
Constantly saying I'm wrong without offering any evidence of any sort isn't offering an opinion. That's why I constantly say you follow me around like a bad smell.Perhaps its because I'm offering an opinion and people agree with it. You are not the final say on things. People have conflicting opinions.
For all the things to be critical of JDS of, first touch is not one.
By far one of the most technical players in the squad.
Clean sheets and goals conceded are the only metric that counts.So Bidwell can block, clear and head stuff. Dasilva can intercept and tackle. The team’s defensive outcomes are a bit worse with Dasilva, but he’s much better on the ball.
That’s the choice. NB I see the stats are from last season, and Dasilva seems to be improving his all round game.
I'm sure Lampard is unique in such a groundbreaking approachAssumption? Lampard plays players that work hard and is part of the team. He plays them players. This isn't an assumption. He has stated so himself.
You stated the opposite to what I said without the slightest bit of evidence. This is an assumption.
Resurrected song maybe?Best in the squad. His intricate passing with EMC, & Rudoni on the left side is a joy to watch too. Very rarely gives the ball away.
Can we all agree that neither Bidwell or Dasilva are good enough for a team that's looking to get promotion?fbref paints a very different picture. Dasilva stacks up very well statistically and Bidwell was very poor.
Dasilva left - Bidwell right

Statistically Dasilva was way ahead of Bidwell last season:

Yet you don't question anyone saying the opposite?I'm sure Lampard is unique in such a groundbreaking approach
Even Lampard said he was surprised how good Grimes has been. Every new player still has to adapt to new team mates and style of play, along with moving location disruption. Leaving his in-laws behind may have helped.Grimes had played hundreds of games in the championship
Leaving his in-laws behind may have helped.
I thought Bidders was fine until that injury caused by a terrible tackle by that Sheff Wed player. He has looked pedestrian since then. It maybe his recovery (if it happens) has not been as quick as we all would have liked.Da Silva has been our best left back since Lampard came in and it’s not even close. Bidwell has always had this somewhat strange ‘cult hero’ status. He’s always just been a solid player for us, nothing more and nothing less.
