The Goat was fed - I'm sorry Ian Royal, but Danny Guthrie is a horrible piece of work and doesn't even have the good grace to be our best player, he's crap. I think it's fair to say Norwood is a substantial improvement and you know why? He plays the ball quickly. Danny Guthrie takes all year to make his mind up before trying some vanity ball with the defence set. Guthrie kills our tempo. Know football, know that to be true.
I agree Norwood is proving better than Guthrie. I agree Guthrie has slowed us down considerably in the past. I think Guthrie can and has dictated play for us well in the past as well though. And that he'd benefit from the general improvement in the quality of the side's passing and movement. Still work to be done there though. But he needs to get match fit and prove his worth otherwise he's certainly behind Norwood in the pecking order and therefore probably the different Karacan and Williams should they ever get and stay fit.
I don't really get where you get the vitriol of him being a horrible piece of work, or why he should "have the good grace to be our best player", both of those things seem like ridiculous comments to make to me.
I wouldn't be particularly upset to see Guthrie leave, but he does get some stupid criticism from people pushing an agenda simply because he didn't get on with McDermott and refused to play a game two years ago.
