To me it sounds like he’s wanting to move on to another club who can compete for the playoffs. Perhaps he’s just hurting after the game but it’s a very unprofessional comment.
Interesting comments from Imrie. “If we can’t get it (playoffs), I’m gonna need to go and find it… I don’t want to be the nearly guy”. If we hadn’t spent the first quarter of the season trying to play Guardiola ball we’d probably be there or thereabouts already.
Watching the highlights back their first goal is mostly on Boyes but feel Mullen also had a chance to hoof it rather than pass to Boyes. Their second however is a howler from Mullen who definitely shouldn’t be getting beaten at his near post like that. The third is just a couple of poor defensive headers in the box and Connolly seemed to react quicker than anyone else to tuck it away.
I think it’s harsh to rule him out of FT altogether on the back of one bad move. It sounds like he was adamant on sticking to a philosophy despite it never working, perhaps given a full summer transfer window and time to bed in it might work better for him in the future.
