Another prick that thinks he's too good for RB.

Good news

If fit I would put him straight back into the side and let TAA come on for the final 25 mins or so if Bradley is lagging a bit.



Would take the near guaranteed vim and vigor of Bradley over wondering which version of TAA might turn up.


Would also give the RCB more time to concentrate on just being a RCB if Bradley is on the pitch

I suspect TAA will play the majority of the last few matches with the hope he’ll sign a new contract. Benching him will have him thinking maybe he’s better off at Real ?

Maybe we'd all be better off?

If we want to cash in & sell him now fair enough but I just don’t want to see either him or Salah leave for nothing in 12 months

The flip side of that is what if he has already decided to see out his contract anyway?

Do we play a guy who has not committed to staying beyond the coming season or do we go with the guy that might/would replace him if he has enough minutes to prove it?


Contract talks with TAA were supposedly put off at the start of this year and again at the start of last summer at the behest of the player.


You might say it is on the club to make him feel wanted, but surely there is also an onus on him to be clear on what he wants too.

If he wants to stay then sit down and have the contract talks. Any talk of him seeing what the lie of the land is under a new manger is a cop out imo if he also stalled contract talks last summer when the thinking would have been that Klopp had a few years left.


And if he wants to go then fine, he can be clear if he would be up to moving this summer for a fee or does he intend to just see out his contract and go on a free. That way the club can plan for it and the manager can arrange his team around TAA not being a big part of it.


The longer he goes on with the "making up his mind" business the more and more it looks like he is just trying to either run down his contract or he is after crazy money. If it is the latter and he wants a big bump on his circa 200k a week wage, then he should start showing on the pitch he is actually worth being paid that much, because this season he has not looked anywhere close to the wages he is on let alone a much bigger wage.

It’d be interesting to be a fly on the wall at the conversations between him & Arne to see where he sees him playing for us going forward.

Exactly, hope they sort that & the contract out as the major priority
