All this Dunne bashing is a bit annoying

If reports are true, he's lost a huge chunk of his personal fortune to failed business ventures, so I have some sympathy and this may be duelling the drinking (if true)

As for his performances, since he came back into the team on the whole he's been very good

I'm sure the stories in the sun and mirror are exaggerated

We need dunne / Collins to help us survive this season so let's get behind them not rip them apart

Maybe you should be telling that to dunne and Collins wiki , they are adults and responsible for their actions- blame them, not us!

To be honest, if they were both replaced in the summer I wouldn't have been mourning their departure much even before all this business. Both must be on wages which much outstrip their abilities, neither is very young any more so I wouldn't hold out much hope of improvement, both of their bodies appear to be creaking and we can't rely on their fitness, and they've both been unprofessional before (Dunne famously arguing with GH, Collins IIRC sneaking bottles of Magners onto the team bus in his socks - I mean, really) and this is the last straw.

I'd like to see a Cuellar & Clark partnership at the back when all are fit. That would seem to me to have that classic "hard bastard" and "clever reader of the game" combination which so many great defences have been built on (Moore & J. Charlton, Baresi & Costacurta, Terry & Carvalho, even Puyol & Pique). Obviously this is impossible while Cuellar's injured, but when he's back I'd like to see it.

He's on £53,000 a week!!!

He earns in a year what the average wage earning man in the street would need to work 100 years to earn

I don't know about the shirt, but it seems that the wearer will be away soon

I know the poor bastard, I could weep when I think of what he has to deal with in his life. I'm off to Japan to see if I can organise a collection for him.

I think the Japanese have enough on their plate without having to collect Dunne. But why not try.
