[Albion] Jose Izquierdo - released by the Albion
- Thread starter scousefan
- Start date
How reliable would you say the source was, on a scale of actually speaking to Jose, to BG?
Did you know Izquierdo means "left" in Spanish?

We don't need him at the moment, so there's no need to rush him. Loads of games to play as the season unfolds, so let's just give him a nice break and should we pick up an injury, we can get him back in the mix but for now there's no rush.
I think we do. March had a good game on Sunday (and a poor one the week before), but Jose was our best winger last season, and we're a more threatening team with him in.

He has a knee injury. And there has been no update since Friday when Hughton said he was “very close” [to returning to training]

Home games maybe we can make do without. Away though is where his real pace can be crucial I feel. There is a goal or two in him, just so long as he is not one on one with the keeper !!!

That goal v Palace aside.
I'm ok with that.

Let's not get carried away with March, he did his job defensively but Murray's clever finish meant he got an assist. It was hardly an inspired ball into the box and there's nothing else of an attacking note you can say about his game on sunday. He did the job required in that particular game, having been AWOL against Watford.
Also, Izquierdo was our best winger at times last season but Knockaert was consistently our most dangerous threat in my opinion. Others will disagree, but even when he was playing in his own head and not really being the player we know he is, I think he contributed more than people realised.

Knockaert always puts in a shift and doesn’t hide even when things aren’t going right for him. When he is on song he’s a joy to watch.
March had a very good game on Sunday but I am really struggling to remember the last good game before then.
Being “one of our own” he gets nowhere near the stick Knocky gets imo.
Spot on.
He doesnt always; however, since the signing of Jahanbksh, he has grafted for every minute he has been on the field. Even up at Birmingham in the pre-season friendly, when he was absolutely awful he chased everything back for the full 90 mins. It's almost like he knows how good the people waiting in the wings to take his place are and that nothing less than 110% effort is what is going to be needed to retain his place, even in the match day squad because there won't be 4 wingers in match day squads when they are all fit

I'm sick to death of Knockaert getting stick, he's our only ever constant threat and player that tries to make something happen.
Sometimes it does not come off or he over plays but Christ we would be a far duller side without him
He throws a strop from time to time, big deal its because he bloody cares.
Anybody who thinks our side is better without him knows **** all about football

Put him in the curry
When i read the matchday thread post game i would think that this is probably the main reason .
