By Hughie SouthonCoufal will be a free-agent in the summer and has reportedly lost the trust of his manager (The Times).
He added: “That’s football. Sometimes you play, sometimes you don’t. If the situation that occurred during the autumn were to continue, something will definitely be resolved and is being resolved. I don’t want to sit on the bench here as much as in the autumn.”
Sadly the guy who in my option is the best right back at the club also said he would prefer to remain in the UK making a move to another PL club a real possibility.
He said: “If possible, I would like to stay in England. The Premier League is the best league in the world.”
It begs the question about if this is affecting other players . Where is the communication, the togetherness and where is DM head at . We need to have a good team spirit not a divide !
If any of our lovely fans still think that Moyes is a man-manager just re-read this honest and decent player’s words. What is this manager doing? Anyone playing well seems to get played out of position or changed, even Dec. He discards players who have run through walls without a backward glance. He signs players then doesn’t play them, sell on at a loss. He then decimated and scattered the most famous Academy in English football. All sacrificed to achieve 17th place in the Prem at Christmas!
Hugh, many of your articles and insights are excellent but I find your constant digging at Moyes disappointing. Aside from achieving 6th and 7th finishes in the last two seasons, he saved us from relegation twice! This season is clearly proving frustrating to us all but calls for Moyes to be sacked are premature. With regard to Coufal, he has been a great buy but he probably isn’t a top half Premier League player. I also think that you’ve got your facts wrong about his contract in that I think the extension option lies with the club.
Losing the trust of the manager? Right now I trust Coufal more than Kehrer tbh, but I’m not manager so 🤷🏾♂️.
