Danny Welbeck: Dan Out Ere

[Ricardinho]

Yep I agree. At no point did I disagree with anything or say anything ab
out Welbeck not deserving a holiday or anything, I just listed the typical training week and workload for reference because it was being discussed above.

Not aimed at any of the main points you made just people in general.

Yea i was wrong. But still 4-5 hours a day + matchday and traveling every week can be physically and mentally draining. Leaving their salary out of the equation, its tough.

Yeah course it is , you got to give it 100 percent every session same with in the gym for an entire season . Most on here are on autopilot during a workday .

Welbeck: 2,325 minutes last season and 11 minutes at the WC
Rashford: 2,676 minutes for United and 211 minutes at the WC
Lukaku: 4,071 minutes for United and 471 minutes at the WC
Lindelof: 2,361 minutes for United and 360 minutes at the WC
Phil Jones: 2,152 minutes for United and 180 minutes at the WC
Bernardo Silva: 2,795 minutes for City and 238 minutes at the WC

Welbeck is the only one who hasn't returned to training.

Can we add a poll for this thread?

'Who will return from the WC first, Welbeck or Mendy?'

 

[Ricardinho]

I suppose with welbz they have to be a bit more careful due to the horrendous injuries he has suffered the last few years. Would prefer a scenario where he has a full rest and comes back ready to hit the ground running.

 

[Fewtch]

Hoping that he never returns tbh

Mendy was back last week, he's not totally shameless.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Think he will be useful this season tbh.

We are changing system and Welbeck under guidance from Ferguson is very tactical player and understand a lot what manager ask from them.

We are struggling with defending while we learn new pressing system and I think the transformation to new tactic will be easier with Welbeck.

Good points but I do think the mindset that 'football isn't a real job' stems from jealousy of what they earn. I'm sure there's a lot of sacrifices that need to be made if you want to continue to stay at the top level earning the big dough.

The idea that the likes of welbeck enjoy a holiday on international tournament duty is another funny one. I wouldn't fancy the idea of my holiday as training, followed by being cooped up with 22 other blokes for most of the day

Envy/jealusy potato tomato

Loads of people nowadays go on workout holidays

If Danny got kids being away with some mates is mos def holiday

Ive been away several weekends this summer with my bro and others, worked hard but very relaxing

 

[YeahBee]

The phrase "gilded cage" comes to mind. It's a matter of freedom. Everyone should be allowed to just go off and do what they want for a good few weeks every year. No matter how luxurious their work is, it's still highly disciplined and restrictive.

The problem is that we don't really see footballers as rounded human beings. We see them solely as athletes and nothing more, even when they're not at work.

They got all the time in the world when they retire with their millions

Anyone with a 10year PL career is set for life

They can rest then

A couple of days & Emery a fan. No surprise.

The only manager that didn't buy in was LVG. Three of the best PL managers ever love his attributes & every England manager selects him.

 

[<<reed>>]

But can he play a CB?

 

[Fewtch]

Good to see that Emery will provide with some banter during his Arsenal tenure.

 

[GunnerBP]

But can he play a CB?

He probably could. Good in the air, strong, can distribute out of the back.

I'm totally joking, but I do like the idea of Emery getting the best out of Welbeck and turning him into the ultimate utility player.

 

[Fewtch]

But can he play a CB?

People call him a defensive winger don’t they?
So if he played as a defender then he’d be a defensive defender. That’s like defender squared which is greater than just a defender.
Should start next to sokratis tomorrow imo.

THE complete player.
