BobBobSuperBob Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 12 minutes ago, NickJ said: A few games ago Johnson left Freeman out, saying he (Johnson) didn't think Freeman should play because he had to make a decision (about extending his contract). But Johnson has just said Freeman didn't want to travel today which was "disappointing because we want him to be involved". Well what has changed?

His form has been average at best for a season and a half now. Why play someone who doesn't want to be here if you have people banging his door down desperate to play? It's not like he's done anything of merit this season....or last.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Pfft. Freeman who has been hounded on here as not good enough, hits form still called not good enough, audibly lauded from within the ground louder than others for mistakes he's made even if he's had a good performance... reap what you sow and all that.

Cut his Humpty's off Absolutely. No matter what is going on, he's an EMPLOYEE of the club, and if he's asked to perform his duty then he shouldn't be allowed to say 'no thanks'. Players have way too much power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Johnson was in the wrong because he (Johnson) dropped Freeman because he (Freeman) wouldn't sign a contract, which was stupid and probably made Freeman even more determined to get away.

If he's not playing because he's said 'I don't want to play' then he should be fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
