See, this is one of the many issues that Levy can't keep getting away from. I don't think Levy has an issue with Ade himself. He was happy for the man to play when Sherweasel was around. So clearly Poch is the one who decided he is not in his plans. But surely Poch if told Levy that Ade is not wanted, he would want assurances that they would have a replacement before deciding that he wouldn't get a squad number? You have to wonder just what is going on behind closed doors. Is Poch going to say, when he's sacked, that he didn't get the players he wanted, much like AVB did?Seriously though adey will have to be brought back into the squad - it makes no sense to have him sitting on his arse when we only have one striker. poch going to have to do some serious arse licking![]()
Well done Danny boy , uncle
Dont like football Joe will be a very
happy bunny . Thats a nice little
profit . Fuck the fans as ever .
Maybe Poch plans to lose in all the cups so he doesn't need more than one striker.
Sham of a manager.

Some people show their agendas when they start attributing illogical blame.
Ade isnt as bad as the old Spice Boys. He does have a reputation but most of it is via newspaper hit articles. Poch said Ade is OK just not in his plans. Brad said he's a good egg and none of the newspaper articles are true about the Poch revolt etc. He said he trains as hard as everyone else.
Mentally he is having issues obviously caused by family mayhem. When you wake up with a knife to your throat, and that guy holding it is your brother...It can fuck you up. haha.
Hard to feel sorry for him with his money. Here is an example of media baiting.
His "chillin with my G's" got SO MUCH TWITTER HATE.
But the media does not show him doing charity work in the same spot:

The truth is during the off season he was resurfacing the playgrounds and football pitches in his old neighborhood in Togo. But Soldado putting Townsend in a headlock on instagram is him being a better person apparently.
He just gives the press too much red meat by posting garish pics of his rolls royce etc etc.
When Ade was having his forum issues, he was being supplied by Townsend, Lamela, Lennon and his strike partner was Soldado. Is it any wonder he had issues.
Ade under Sherwood was in the same team when Kane got his resurgence. He was in the same team when Eriksen was in form. That period meant we got enough points to get into the Europa. He isnt as bad a person as people make out.
Poch IMO missed a trick by backing Townsend and Soldado instead of Ade. But it's nothing I can prove at this point.
Poch seems to be a non nonsense coach and does not want to massage ego's to get form out of more colorful players. I respect that, and Ade leaving would be the best for the young team we have. Although in the past Eriksen has given interviews stating how much Ade has helped him during his best form periods. It's a shame the press did a hatchet job on him. There is a troubled guy under that pile of shitty gold watches and terrible dances.

When this team clicks, I think your old posts will be gold after the dust has settled.
The players you want out the door are going to make you look like an idiot.
An own goal and good players like Kane not having his shooting boots on is like the opposite of painting over the cracks. There is a rock solid team under this wallpaper.
