Shway Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 1 hour ago, SthMelbRed said: Hutch gets a certain leeway based on who he is, and what he's done. He more than earned the right to chill for a couple of years between cycles to concentrate on club football at his age. Arfield, nor anybody else, at this point, has not earned that sort of leeway. Quit trying to compare the two. They are not the same. Holy fuck…my gosh guys need to stop comparing guys to Arfields situation. Hutch will retire with 100+ caps. Hoilet will retire with 50+ caps and on of Canadas top assists. Cavallini will retire being in the top scorers. Scott will have what? The memory of USA W or how about the title of being named Captain and then bailing when we thought we needed him most. He’s no fkn Ziyech, where he would’ve changed our fate because he would be our best player.. There’s so much bias and blinders on is the reason this thread is so alive. But I’m tired of guys (the same ones) throwing dirt on our legends when comparing them to him. Compare him to Bekker, Teibert, Akindele….but even then I have a hard time because their commitment couldn’t be questioned. He treated the national team like a club team.

I think Arfield had his chance to get back on the national team earlier this year. He chose to retire, and that was it in Herdman's mind. If he accepted that call up in January, he would of played in the World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Off topic for the current discussion but in yesterday's SPL match Arfield subbed on in the 87th minute. Wonder if the new manager doesn't rate him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was more necessity due to injury, he, Davis, and McGregor were all to see less minutes this year, injuries happened/they performed. Hagi, and Lawrence are returning from injury soon, also the emergence of Lowry. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bison44 Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Yeah...remember when we had a striker in Barclays Premership?? Ahhhhhh what happened? By the time he filtered back down to the championship and then league 1, the scoring touch was gone. Peaked at 22..23??? That was right about the time Josh Simpson got injured...poof they were both gone......like summer wages. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
