Originally posted by NEILLO But not overlooked. And got game time on Friday. Jairo WAS overlooked - for 18 months after a very good performance against Man City.

After winning plaudits by almost everyone since he got a slot in midfield he was dropped for Friday's game - now sorry, but he's the clearly the best passer of our central midfielders deemed playable by Roy. OK he got game time on Friday he should be starting. As soon as I saw that starting line up I said to a set of mates - that is seriously uninspiring and I nearly didn't bother watching. Newcastle were on an awful run of form. Awful. Why on earth would you cede the midfield to them?

Referring back to the original posting, as to why Max Meyer has “gone wrong”, I will not comment because there are obviously two passionately opposing points of view. As to why he is not even on the bench, is an intriguing question. The obvious answer is that there is no place for him as Friday’s line-up makes obvious. However, I have a sneaky suspicion that his agent is negotiating, or has already negotiated a transfer for him in the January transfer window, so why jeopardise that. His contract is up at the end of the season, and the January Window is “desperation time” for a lot of clubs, and offers him his best opportunity for a move. In the summer he would be competing with a whole host of other more talented Free Transfers.. I believe that we have seen the last of him, and he will probably move back to Europe,, having endured his humiliations for the fat paycheck at the end of the month. Sort of sums up the manager’s opinion that playing football is not what motivates him. Of course, he will find another club which thinks he is young and cheap enough to take a gamble on rehabilitating him, but at a much reduced rate. .Sadly they are destined to fail, just as Palace did, by not being savvy enough before signing him. Dougie out NOT Roy out LOL I am very comfortable with mediocre. It is something I do to perfection

Dougie out NOT Roy out LOL He has looked very moody in the training sessions. I do wonder if attitude is part of the reason he hasn't settled. There were those at Schalke who questioned this. I was really excited when he signed as he had pedigree, but even though most of his 50 odd appearances have been for less than 90 minutes he has rarely imposed himself on a game (if ever). I agree that I think he'll move in January. To me it's the only thing that can explain why we've resorted to so many defenders on the bench. In the right team he'll probably flourish, but sadly not in this one.

Meyer has been given any number of opportunities, but it’s patently obvious he isn’t a Premier player, it’s just too physical for him. I expect plans to get him out on loan or sold are being worked on.

I have no idea but that would imply the Bundesliga is not physical or much less so than PL Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.
