As reprehensible as Okore's behaviour has been, this is what happens when clubs give up. The players do too.

Maybe Okore refused to train with the first team because of their piss poor attitude towards the club.

However, refusing a reasonable request to do what he's paid for must surely be a fine or breach of contract offence with no pay off.

Maybe someone has already mentioned it but he went on strike to get his move to Villa in the first place.

Agree with this. This is what happens when there's no leadership at a club.

Sorry, I was replying to the comment about Ayew allegedly threatening to strike to force through his move to us.

Although I agree it doesn't help but these wankers maskerading as Footballers still need to shoulder the blame too.
