Negativity of Ade & Lennon banished
Mauricio Pochettino is a coach who talks about his squad having the right mentality and it seems if he feels you are a negative influence then you are packed off somewhere else, he only wants positive influences around the club.
Players who caused problems last season were frozen out to force them away from the club. It was a policy some complained about but given our record of unloading players it seemed at the time to me to be a sensible move.
This summer the transfer business so far suggests it was a policy that has worked, Younès Kaboul and Étienne Capoue have gone, the reports are that Spurs and Aston Villa have agreed a season-long loan for Adebayor and Aaron Lennon is training with the Development Squad, together with Emmanuel Adebayor until a move is completed.
It is a further demonstration that you are not a part of the first team squad here and a further push to leave. They were the four involved in the November bust-up with the youngsters after the Stoke City defeat.
It's a sad end for Lennon who has given us some great memories but we have a new era now and you either embrace it or leave I'm afraid. I hope he gets his move to Everton as he still has a lot to offer, despite the abuse he gets from our fans. Sentiment has no place in footballing success though when it's time to go it's time to go and as fans we have to move on.
Paulinho has also gone, chasing cash in China instead of pulling up with a mystery strain in training. To be negative you don't have to be vocal, it can be by the way you train and thus what your teammates think of you, whether they have faith ion you.
Sell Adebayor, Lennon and Chiriches and we can go into the new season on a positive upbeat note.
