have to say I am pretty upset by all that has gone on with savage
and good luck blackburn for getting him
no doubt bruce has improved him by 35% since arriving from leicester, he was a loud mouth nobody and bruce turned him into a combative high work load midfielder
just a warning,
he is 30 yrs old now and his best yrs are past him, he isnt the same player he was when he first joined us, he hasnt the stamina to run around the pitch like he use to which is basically wot savage is all about, so expect him to be really quiet some games and completly useless and others where he runs around kicking everyone, he has lsot around 20% of his pace
HE publically stated for over a year that he loved the club, the fans, the manager and the area and all off a sudden it is completly the opposite, now you blackburn fans work it out
1. mark bowen spat ? [very good assistant manager that gets the players battling but has no attacking expertise ]
2. A man of no integrity that lies to people and is just greedy
3. an attention seeking immature 30 yr old that needs to be the centre of attention
4. Lets face it your not a better club than us, your league form the past few seasons is patchy, all your top quality players have left or got 2 old and u have struggled to bring in quality replacements, so is it the welsh connection, why would he join a club below us in the table with a real possibility of relegation ?
only 6 months ago he was crying about players like dunnie and heskey getting 30k per week so bruce thought it best to reward him with a £30k a week 4 yr contract for his hard work the past two years
us blues fans have been saying for the past 12 months that the squad have out grown him, he hasnt the ability to improve us technically to be honest nevertheless us brummies appreciated his work load
ever since everton tapped him up over 18 months ago he hasnt been the same player, his consistency and work rate have been in question
the truth is that savage walked into bruce's office 3 months ago crying that he wanted to leave birmingham cos he didnt want to stay anymore, and only a few weeks ago dwight dorke got savage to walk into bruce's office and write on a piece of paper concerning his transfer request
so dwight dorke has been given his marching orders as well
I think the last straw with savage and his attention seeking antic's was the re emmergance of darren carter, a brummie born lad who came straight into the team and got birmingham winning again, he has scored 3 goals in 5 odd games so savage was worrying that his place was in doubt,
so all in all please dont think i am bitter about this, i am not bitter about blackburn cos i couldnt care less, no doubt u feel the same about us, i am bitter about how savage has conducted himself and let us fans down
just keep giving him the attention he wants and he will usually play well
also read martin o'neil's biography, you will notice some strange comments about robbie savage and how he had an attention seeking problem and how immature he was
Good luck and I hope you stay up
