Jos Embarrassed Now?

As news reaches us that Jos Hooiveld could be on the way FC Copenhagen on loan it’s the feeling of disappointment that is palatable.

True, when he has taken to the park there has been times when he has looked like a wardrobe on wheels and some certain wags have said he is the worse thing to come out of Sweden since Ikea.

The disappointment comes in that his character shone through long before we saw him play. He was everything we were missing. We all watched the Yous Tube and embraced his :”If he starts it, I’ll finish it” mantra. Even when he was struggling he was good copy.

That was entertainment. What must be disappointing for him is that our defence is currently made up of a Young Prince and someone who seems to be a blonde wig away from Glenda and resembles what I imagine Jean Luc Picard pleasure face to look like but with added tattoos.

The clean sheets don’t mask the gnawing feeling that we seem to be winging it on the defensive side. Plus we also seem great at defending our own corners.

I picture our centre backs as the hybrid of  Johans aggressions, the scoring prowess of Elliot and the leadership of Aitken. Jos last January gave me that hope.

I wonder if one of the coaching staff is feeling slightly disappointed and maybe embarrassed also?
