hps2031a 2 Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) The transfer speculation has obviously affected both Cantwell and Buendia. Both are still under contract and it’s very disappointing to think they both just don’t knuckle down and get on it with it, until something concrete happens. Their attitude disappoints me and I tend to think I would rather they move on with that attitude, and use some of the money. Although after yesterday’s performance we could have have done with Cantwell, Stiepermans not up to it. What’s your thoughts?

Canary Wundaboy 1,358 Posted October 4, 2020 Can't afford to let Emi go if we still harbour any aspirations of promotion. I've been one of Todd's greatest fans but he's badly let himself down this transfer window whereas Emi seems to be willing to stay and fight (sometimes too literally). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanthecanary 168 Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Honestly, I've moved jobs and in between leaving the old and joining the new, my performance dropped slightly. It wasn't deliberate on my part and I certainly didn't lack respect for that employer. It wasn't conscious, I didn't down tools, I didn't suddenly not care about my coworkers but my performance dropped regardless. Footballers are human beings and not infallible.

I can understand if it is but nothings confirmed. If I want a new job, I don’t go off sick from my current one and burn all bridges. If anything I make sure I leave on good terms in case something falls through or I want to return. I wouldn’t be surprised if Cantwell is putting off potential employers, as well as destroying the relationship he has with his current one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever it is it’s enough for Farke to not only keep him out of two match day squads but also compare him to a kit man in an interview. Farke explained he first deals with the issue internally, then in front of the group and lastly go public. I’d say that’s pretty serious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He should putting in the effort in every session unless he is either injured or unwell. From everything I've heard this is being driven by Cantwell and his agent who are trying to drum up interest, not that clubs are actually showing interest.

Greavsy 2,412 Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) The problem isnt what Todd done / is doing. Its what he is NOT doing that is the problem, and this is doing what he is paid to do. Work for NCFC, which includes training, and playing. Edited October 4, 2020 by Greavsy 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samwam27 519 Posted October 4, 2020 I did wonder as no stories have broken about anyone actually bidding for Cantwell. Well will be great if he stays (same with Buendia) but Cantwell will have to pull his socks up and earn his way back into the team & Farke's plans. Will be a godsend once this blessed window closes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been one of Todd's greatest fans but he's badly let himself down this transfer window whereas Emi seems to be willing to stay and fight (sometimes too literally). Not sure I will hold my judgement as it was hard to tell yesterday wether when he was substituted he went straight down the tunnel to get ( or do ) something or wether he stormed off, then thought slightly better of it. Then when he went to sit down wasn’t sure if his actions were out of frustration or a little paddy about still being at Norwich. Like many I will be hoping that he is still up for it but this week will tell I guess. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
