I wouldn't care who it was but

In my opinion the kid is pining for Ole, he followed him here when other clubs were looking and now he is pouting...he has a good game for the national team, back in his comfort zone with his friends...if tan was picking the team and blocking Matt playing why is guerra not playing every week? Tan actually sorted that transfer himself if I recall so why is the dictator not ensuring his star signing plays?

Is Matt going to end up playing his career in his own country,I hope not because he has a lot of potential but there was no talk of homesickness when the previous managerwas here ...Matt needs to either make it impossible for him to be left out or feck off back to Norway no player should ever be able to say I will go home if I Don'tget to play FFS...of course all this should be kept behind closed doors but somehow the player was quoted has saying those things and then the manager had to respond.

We are talking about a nineteen year old with great potential who has shown flashes of his skills at times but has definitely not accepted the sacking of Ole....

No Corky, it was our manager who spoke out and then the media asked Matts regarding what Slade had said.

I think you got the wrong end of the stick Corky.

Don't tell me I got the wrong end of the stick, I just have a different opinion to you. He will be gone soon by the looks of things and it will be interesting to see where his career goes

Gents, theres a miss understanding here

First lets not fall out about different opinions, thats whats great about football

Slade made comments first about Daehli come January, what might happen if the price was right. A then reporter asked Daehli what he thought, Daehli said " All I want is to play football " then Slade then made another statement about proving himself etc and injuries

Wanna bet? Mats made his first statement on the matter on monday mate...

What happened may have been that a false report from an informal meeting and chat with the manager may have led to a reporter asking Matt questions and the young lad responded....there again that is just an opinion ,all I know is I seen a report about Matt and then a response from a manager

Nope, i watched the interview live. He said he has been fit, fighting and will continue to fight, but he has to play football. He has been doing double sessions, and triple where that has been possible to make it into the team. He also said he hasn't spoken to Slade in three weeks.

To be honest it's not that important to me...if he stays great,let's hope his potential blossoms if he goes then so be it...it's hardly the biggest problem with the club.

where is the interview you are referring too ? As I think people on here and on about what has been written in the echo

Cardiff City boss Russell Slade will hold crunch talks with star midfielder Mats Daehli next week as the Norwegian’s Bluebirds future looks increasingly uncertain.

Thursday 6th Nov 2014.

Daehli has found himself out in the cold in recent weeks and could now leave the club in the January transfer window if both parties decide it is for the best.

It is understood Cardiff would be willing to let Daehli leave if he wants an exit route, but they are determined to recoup the £2.5m they spent on the player in January.

Slade is keen to add one or two new faces to his squad after Christmas but he has been told he must cut his squad before any new signings are sanctioned.

While many Cardiff supporters will be disappointed at news of Daehli’s potential exit, there is no such surprise around the seemingly inevitable departures of Eikrem and Burgstaller.

Eikrem has failed to start a single league match this season while Burgstaller has made the starting XI just once in 16 matches against Huddersfield.

Other players who could potentially leave the club in January are Kim Bo-Kyung, Juan Cala and Javi Guerra who do not appear to be in Slade’s plans.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Believing the echo???? You must be mad!!!!

This board is becoming a joke!!!

I used to love reading this board as I felt it was a good place to talk about cardiff city FOOTBALL club.

Now I realise it's more of a dictatorship than the one you complain Vincent Tan is running!!!

full of drivel and lies. All this "I know Matts very well" bull. Probably met him at a supporters clubb function once,or he looked straight at you when applauding the crowd at the end of a game.

I tell you what, I met Matts in caroline street the other day, we shared a chicken donner with all the trimmings! Put on a few pounds but says he's well fit and up for the fight. We got so close in that 5 minutes, I'm now gonna be his best man at his wedding!!!!!!!!

True?.........No, but just as believable as anything else said on this forum . In the know my arse.

what happened to staying out of the politics and concentrating on the football this season?

not enough hits on the site if we just talked about footbal, so lets invent some scandal to make the forum more interesting.

I truly give up!!!!!

Don't tell me I got the wrong end of the stick, I just have a different opinion to you. He will be gone soon by the looks of things and it will be interesting to see where his career goes

Your spot on Corky The various drama queens on here are trying to create something out if nothing once again. The fact is that Daehli is a great prospect who came here because of OGS, the manager has gone and Daehli no doubt now feels sorry for himself. He can be forgiven as he's only 19 and he can be forgiven for his naivety in his attitude towards laying down ultimatums. However, if he is not comfortable here because his mentor has left then he has some big decisions to make. He either grows some balls quickly and knuckles down or he tries following OGS to wherever he ends up next. I would like him o stay and develop, but only on the club and managers terms. No player, however good they are should dictate to the manager, especially not in public

First are we not allowed our opinion? without name calling or reverting to sarcasm?for me the minute u do that you know uve lost the debate

Please could you show me where Daehli is trying to dictate?

All the lad wants to do is play football its better than just sitting there and taking the money for nothing is it not?

Has Daehli not said publicly that if he is not playing games then he will have to look to going elsewhere in January? Yes he has. That is dictating his terms to the manager. No player has the right to do that, especially in public. You keep telling us that he has a fantastic attitude, yet your comfortable with him going to the press and dictating his terms You obviously have a different opinion to me than what is acceptable from a player and what is not It's creating drama, because the player has only not been involved in a handful of games, it's hardly the end of the world
Please could you show me where Daehli is trying to dictate?

Hardly dictating terms, he is just being honest like any player would say, if he cant even get on the bench its pretty obvious he has not future here and will need to move on.

He's not spot on at all So Annis, you would be happy that every player that cannot get a game goes to the press and tells them that if he isn't playing soon then he will have to look elsewhere for another club?? I'm pretty shocked by your attitude, if I'm honest.

Daehli, never went to the press, Slade went to them first,then Daehli was asked a question

I don't see why you find it an issue, surely it's just common sense if he isn't even getting on the bench.

Don't tell me I got the wrong end of the stick, I just have a different opinion to you. He will be gone soon by the looks of things and it will be interesting to see where his career goes

Corky, the way I read reports was that our manager said Daehli may be sold in January, then Matts was asked a question by a reporter about Slades comments.

I thought you may have 'got the wrong end of the stick' by believing that Matts went public about his position at the club first then the managed responded but it didn't hapoen like that.

Your opinion is yours and we all have different ones, I weren't knocking your opinion nor was I knocking how you interrupted the unfolding of the story.

I think Matts will have a good career, I just hope, but it is unlikely, that it will be with City.
