Temitayo Olufisayo Olaoluwa Aina of NIGERIA!

I am still amazed after 3 years of watching Aina people still think he is knackered after one sprint. It's his body language! He looks knackered after 10 minutes in a match.

He is also 29, not 35.
I think it's more his injury record than his body language or age to be honest.

He just doesn't seem to be very robust, a wing-back generally is probably the most physically demanding position to play and that's even more so in a high-intensity system like Glasner's. I'd be surprised if Aina managed more than 5 consecutive games playing before his bones crumble into tiny pieces.

It's not just his body language, he is knackered, he's even said so himself in several interviews. It's no coincidence that injuries have followed.

The amount of nonsense I'm reading and hearing from fans suddenly deciding one of our best players will need replacing. What.
It's more than a bit disingenuous to frame it as that.

Some of us are uncertain whether Ola will be able to play as a full back in a Glasner side. Where that leaves him, who knows. If we stick with a back 4 then Ola won't even be a discussion.

Players sometimes arnt the same after bad injuries, its a fact.

He was brilliant in 24/25 everyone knows that but was well off that level last season, even accounting for getting up to speed after injury.

I would say his position isnt nailed on. I'd say the same for Chris Wood for exactly the same reason.

I'm not saying we shouln't be looking!

I'm not convinced OG will play with wing backs, but if he does Aina is more than good enough. Also, he played Mitchell who slotted more into a 4 as Munoz bombed up and down the right wing, so if he sees Neco in the Munoz role Aina could slot across to the more defensive left wing back.

Some folk are just looking for a told you moment, and continue to do the same on many threads just to claim to be knowledgable.
Hence why - typically - anyone coming on this Forum and announcing they „called it!“ or they „told you!“ or who claim to be „in the know“ typically gets the handle of my Ban Hammer stuck up their metaphorical jacksie.

Nobody has time for any of that shit.

Especially not for people who are just trying to show-off. If you want to show-off, buy a BMX, or get a supernodel girlfriend, or move to Monaco.

The handle? You are suddenly a rather generous man.

You might be onto something there, the problem is most of those in here who do claim to be in the know would only be able to show off on a BMX as they are still living with their parents and own a w**k sock
I don't know anyone on here that claims to be ITK. There's a few that get little bits of info every now and again but they always give context to it and have proven to be reliable. You've been extremely dismissive of some really good and respected members.

Once again it's another post from you that is prickly and agitating. Why does every single post from you have to be like that?

He'd still be quicker than Nicky Eaden was.
How were Eaden and Breckin so bad for us in League 1 when the season before they had been in Wigan's defence which got promoted to the PL?

It wasn't down to the Ginger Mourinho as they were toss after too
