If asked why I have my doubts about cooper then look no further than Lewis obrien. I'm gutted that he's off to play in the tin pot American league, gutted that he is not suited to forest and gutted that he has never been given a chance. A type of player we desperately need with ability not one single midfielder we have posesses. He dominated us at Wembley with his robust tackling dribbling, up and down the pitch great movement in tight spaces and excellent pass and move. With shelvey mgw we could have really played better posession game with real threat going forward and creativity for our striker.
All this nonesense spouted by cooper about Lewis coming back a better player, really
Playing at a level now lower than league one.
The deal to Blackburn fell through more because cooper insisted a loan to buy was was stipulated. He was so keen to get rid that he already struck him off our squad list.
When you see freuler mangala colback on the team sheet you know it means surrender. A player in obrien was just another class act that cooper cannot get the best out of or utilise for the betterment of the team. Whether it's for these reasons or that he was spikey and trouble in the dressing room who knows but a good manager plays his best players and gets the best from them, liked or disliked it's his job, not just chucking them on the scrap heap. Surridge bade Shocking really.

Records stuck Rutland
Obrein started every game and his last start in that run. was against the bin dippers away.
He was terrible and got took off.
Maybe Cooper saw something there that made his mind up about Obrein
What you have to remember is that players were initially bought in to suit a three at the back system with wing backs, some players have suffered not playing because the system had to be scrapped
You go on about Cooper having favourites, what about you?
The only difference is Cooper is a successful coach and your not and its coopers head on the block not yours,
All coaches make tough decisions, look at conte at spurs with spence
Obrein and bade are gone, no use harping on about them.

Maybe you should have pointed out the O'Brien, Bade and Surridge situation sooner. oh wait, that's pretty much cut and paste a good 3-5 times a week already just in case no one ready it the first 20 times.
O'Brien had chances in early in the season and did ok no better, unfortunately results picked up when he wasn't in the team and he never got back in. He has also had some shockers and even got subbed at half time away at the poor game at Leicester. Hopefully he will do well in the US and get another chance over the Summer with us. Anyway, either way, he is not playing for us again this season so don't really see the merit of moaning about it every other post.
Surridge has had a fair few chances this season and fluffed his lines on numerous occasions and missed chances seemingly easier to score than to miss, doesn't offer enough of a threat up front, his level is definitely Championship I think, but he is still in the squad.
Bade, obviously not good enough at this level, we don't see how they players train with the others and their performances on the training pitch week in week out as the coaches and manager do. If a player is not good enough to play in the first team, I'm not sure how that is deemed as poor treatment.
Never heard a bad word about Coopers treatment of people or players at Liverpool, England or Swansea. People who have played for him before obviously like the guy else they wouldn't signed again to work with him. Comes across decent and extremely hard working.

Didn’t Dominate us 1st half at Wembley, and we sat on our lead 2nd half, and by the way, can’t believe your’ bloodied noses’ post, bit pathetic that Rutland, you need to apologise to everyone for that,
21 Mar 2023 10:13:06
Has this been copied and pasted, same every week. Like I said, O'brien is a decent, neat and tidy midfield player from the championship. The way he's portrayed on here he's a world beater. For every game he's shone, there's a game he's been non existent in fact at Blackpool he was terrible. If we do manage to stay up, we have to go forward with better players than what we've already got and definitely better players than Lewis O'brien.

Usual crap from the usual protagonists. Bloodied nose Steve, apologise jeez you’ve got some nerve. Obrien made one mistake first half against Leicester and cooper made an example of him. So you lot think freuler and mangala offer ANYTHING at this level. Obrien came on as a sub one match and changed the game and everyone sang his praises, he’s not been selected since. The Blackpool match was a total debacle and a dreadful decision from cooper to put out a different eleven and to say obrien was crap and surridge missed a hatful of chances might be true but come on cooper has killed these players. I said the slate was clean prior to the Newcastle match but that was diabolical. Talk about me being a scratched record, maybe lol but cooper is rinse repeat rinse repeat with his usual diatribe after games. But well done for trying to argue the point but as usual just attack the poster???

Deffo your love child rutland.
21 Mar 2023 11:47:45
Rutland, why have I got a nerve? you mentioned ‘ bloodied noses ‘ not me, I just disagree with most of your opinions.
21 Mar 2023 12:02:22
No one attacked the poster, stop playing the victim. Your the only person here saying 'usual crap' about people's posts.
You seem to have a self obsessed, one man vendetta against Cooper and try to dig him out at every opportunity. You've even resorted to going back to last season to try and sully an unbelievable achievement by everyone for promotion. What did he do, cut you up coming out the Forest car park or something?
If the slate is clean, how can you then keep bringing up the past again and again, that's not a clean slate is it? Your words.
Your language about some players and the manager is absolutely dreadful at times and so disrespectful. You would earn a lot more respect by not slagging them off, it is possible to make a point without doing so.

Boy's Rutland is just posting what he thinks.
No need to owe anyone an apology despite what others seem to think.
Yes his posts maybe repetitive however he can say what he feels to the annoyance of the Banter Police.
21 Mar 2023 12:29:52
Fawaz, he does post what he thinks but the same thing over and over again. My brother rings me 4 times a day saying the same thing, he has an excuse he's got vascular dementia.
21 Mar 2023 12:50:28
Fawaz you think it’s ok to mention physical violence on the site then? We know what Rutland thinks, we ought to by now, just don’t happen to agree, he needs to stop acting victimised because people don’t agree with him,
21 Mar 2023 13:23:05
Earlier on someone was pointing out Munmad was always changing his team formations criticizing it so there doing something different wasn't right I don't agree with all the teams picked but look forward to them being posted has I do most posts if Rutters feels he needs to point it out fine scroll past it if you can't take anymore because your answer is also same.
21 Mar 2023 13:56:17
Ginger I don’t slag players just ask honestly what they bring to the team. So tell why does cooper pick mangala? He has never ever made it past the 60 minute mark. Why is this? Not fit or crap. I cannot see what he brings to the team nor freuler. Hence surely a confident obrien is a better choice….
21 Mar 2023 13:59:07
Yes I'm afraid it's now become a Cooper in or out banter site now think we need to get use to the fact that we're all going to after agree to disagree all comments are put on to be commented back to so all fair in love in war and let's just remember it's a banter site. Banter friendly exchange of good humoured teasing remarks anyway we love Gail tilsey we hate thatcher the end.
21 Mar 2023 14:30:48
Rutland he picks mangala because he thinks he’s better than o’ brien, would have thought that was the obvious answer to your question,
