Traore and Tarabat..........

[fisnik]

Yea exactly, all this doom and gloom can't help. I think we should just wait before jumping to conclusions!

Even though I doubt the validity of the original post, albeit with good intentions of 'passing on what I have been told', we all like a good transfer rumour so once that mentality is ingrained we will continually get these posts as well.

One question I have. Why if the squad all travelled up together would 2 who are not playing, then leave and travel back I assume at their own expense?

[silvercue]

I am sure the expence was not really an issue.

The point is we do not know the details.

[fisnik]

Maybe someone might fall ill. Maybe they were worried about Man city spies finding out who was playing, lol... Maybe Hughes hadn't made his mind up yet and wanted more options. Then when they weren't needed maybe they were told they could go early since they're also on international duty.

No I know Silver but footballers always travel together, so why would they travel back on their own, if they weren't needed and were given permission by Sparky to leave for International duty would he have taken them in the first place? I'm under the impression that players normally travel for Int duty on a monday, so what's the rush?

Don't blame them to be honest if I was taraabt i would be well Pi**ed off not even making the bench, especially when you see wright-Phillips in the starting line up. Wright-Phillips is a complete waste of a player how he stayed on for 90 mins il never know.

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't agree with it, but I could understand it.

Oh my word...........people seem unable to read some of the messages on here. I clearly said the word 'IF'.

If they had the manager's permission then fair enough.

Traore will be flying to Senegal and Tarabat to Morocco. Hundreds of miles apart!

Good point.

They'd have to be on separate trains surely...

[Franky Boy]

They would of known they wernt going to be in the squad before they travelled down to city...

[BUSHRANGER1982]

I heard that they managed to slip their guards, and jump off the train taking them to Manchester.
A massive manhunt is now under way in Shepherd's Bush, in Ellerslie Rd to be precise.

How do you know they would HAVE known they WEREN'T going to be in the squad? What makes you so sure?

Well i thought it was well known you only take your starting eleven and your 7 subs... i doubt he would take an extra 2 players knwoing he would have to drop 2 of them after making the journey up there....

the tunnel camera which is liked in another thread, shows tarrabt and traore no even entering the stadium, i find this ********... hey, i could be wrong...

That doesn't make sense. If you're only taking your starting eleven plus seven subs how come we had the full quota of 18 for the match yesterday AFTER those two supposedly buggered off? And what would happen if a player was unfit the next morning? The team travelled to Manchester on Friday and a player could have been taken ill for whatever reason. You'd be running a serious risk strategy if you took only the bare numbers.
