Dynamite Red Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Played well, I do find it a little odd that he can play left back, keep a clean sheet against a quality international team plus score the winner yet can't get a game for us in one of our weakest positions.

JasonM88 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 If we, as a club, allow a player who's so obviously extremely talented, with huge potential improvement leave for anything short of a huge budget, I fear the fans reaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has used up all his excuses and all his chances so next season will reveal all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Red Rich Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 He's awful & the quicker we realise it and get rid the better. Then players like Hordur might actually get the respect they deserve & we will have a successful season.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo II Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 If we didn't already own Mags, I suggest we'd be delighted to sign him - a 24 year old goal scoring international defender; I'd be impressed if we landed a similar calibre player this summer. What I cannot understand is LJ's insistence that 23 year old (24 in September) Joe Bryan can be a top-level left back, despite the majority of his time in that position being with Plymouth in League Two, and his more accomplished performances at this level being in midfield. However, Mags (only 8 months older) is too stuck in his ways at centre back to be able to play left back, meaning he's out of the squad more often than not, yet he can regularly line up there and impress at international level - he helped keep the like of Perisic, Mandzukic, Modric and Kalinic quiet last night, and now has twice popped up with crucial winners. Regular international who's side might yet make the World Cup next summer, and who has scored as many free kicks as Tomlin this season, and yet might be out in his arse before the next campaign- I don't understand it.

WhistleHappy Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Makes me wonder if perhaps L J is confusing our Hordurs with the reality TV show about 'Hoarders' and 'loads of rubbish' ... Magnusson, has just proved that when he 'Starts he can Finish' (come on LJ it doesn't take a Mastermind to see that!) Time to 'think outside of the box' Lee.

For example if Hordur jumps ship pastures ( and I wouldn't blame him) and he makes a roaring success of it with a rival, then there will be an outrage amongst fans and rightly so. I don't think LJ will have any slack at all this season, last season is far to raw still. He has to get it it right from the word go with everything, new players, existing players, tactics etc. If LJ has any coaching/management ability Magnussons form should not have gone unnoticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carey 6 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 I didn't actually see the game yesterday, but if he looks like he could play left back comfortably, up against a player Man U are looking to sign we should definitely give him ago. Not sure I'd have him at centre back. Too weak for me, and his distribution isn't as good as some people would make it out to be. Still, it was his first season in the championship so hopefully pushes on next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could give him all the time in the world as long as things are working and there is progress and dare I say it stability, along with seemingly ability to use and motivate the players properly. As I said his every move will be scrutinised by the fans at a level not seen before. If he steps out of line and they will be calling for his head on a platter with a cherry on top. Like the Tweet quoted says about Hordur/ Goldbourne in Lee's case he is either successful or not. There is no leeway ( no pun intended) in his case this coming season. I personally want him to be successful, but if he really hasn't learnt from this season or isn't up to the job then I'm realistic enough and will call for his head as loud as anyone. I want my club to be successful after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
