TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) Should we pay up the last 6 months contract to get rid asap, keep until summer and then release, or keep until summer and extend his deal by a year in the hope that somebody takes a punt on him but with the risk of another year of drama and his stupid cryptic tweets?

Monty13 2,240 Posted January 14, 2022 He’s here for 18 months or we get a fee of some description. He’s an asset, even if a depreciating one. Letting him go for free is insane. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chelm Canary 404 Posted January 14, 2022 (edited) He definitely needs to leave though. Too much water under the bridge now. I expect someone will pick him up on the cheap this window knowing we will activate his extension if not. Surely that's the most likely Edited January 14, 2022 by Chelm Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody else seems to want him though, and can't help that some Norwich fans massively exaggerating his ability because he's got a nice touch and can pull a trick out of the bag now and again has helped to create this monster. He's probably the 5th best left winger I've seen at Norwich since I started watching in 1989, and we've been sh*t for half of that time, nothing to write home about, he's not the new Grealish... he's a very naughty boy!

That is why these transfer windows can be so disruptive - some players get unsettled. We see it so many times - it looks as if the players concerned have "down tooled" as a result of having their head turned. I don't think it's intemtional, it's just that they lose their focus. That it's happened to Cantwell before and that it looks as if it is happening again - on top of the already disrupted season he's had, would indicate he is one of those, as opposed to Aarons and Godfrey, who have been exemplary type of players.

"The rules are clear for each player. You have to be physically and mentally prepared and show consistency in training and be available. The standards and the levels are the same for every player. Younger players have to learn and experience these things. But Todd is not 18 anymore. It is not difficult. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He heavily regrets forcing his way out of West Brom, when he was 24 incidently, and was practically begging to return there in the summer before signing for a League 1 side at 28. He's flopping hard in League One. Good example Bluefloyd. Edited January 14, 2022 by TeemuVanBasten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it comes down to risk, the extension will cost us 1M, in wages. If we do not extend he definitely leaves for nothing. I would probably extend the contract and loan him out. Whoever has turned his head then has to make a move. Edited January 14, 2022 by Newtopia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
