:angry: So Mr Izzet is considering his future football career according to Tom Ross on the news this morning, well thank you for nothing Mr Izzet, you've sat on the injury table or warmed the bench for a whole season drawing a big fat wage for the priveledge and now we are relegated he's considering retiring, what a surprise. |

don't you think our fitness tests at our club should be brought up to standard before we sign anymore players, i mean what do we pay specialists for?? lessons to be learnt here.... and the moral, don't spend money on a big name, who isn't fit enough to play for you :rolleyes: |

It was on Tom Ross's show that Muzzy is considering his future in professional football? |

To be fair if any player has to retire then its a sad day. :( I,d like to know what the problem is though...we,ve been told that it is a "sore knee". Its obviously much more serious. |

Just wish hed have thought of it a year ago, think he,ll be gone from my memory as soon as he shuts the door behind him, imo he has milked this club, his performances when he has played have been mediocre, good riddance |

i wonder if he'd have done this had we stayed up! i agree, its a shame for any player who needs to retire early, but suggesting this now is just a kick in the teeth when his wages could have been used to bring in another player in January! |

Is he considering his future in terms of clubs or actually considering retiring? If he is considering retiring then that is a shame. If he wants to leave as we have been relegated then thats hardly a suprise. We better get used to a whole summer of speculation like this. |

I agree, we have to look at our fitness coach if we have one and training methods as something is not right at al |

I'm sorr but I am starting to find some of the synical posts like this out of order. When we signed Muzzy Izzett he had hardly ever had an injury. All supporters acclaimed him as being a good signing. Since then he has been perpetually injured and now, it appears, may have to retire prematurely. Its neither Izzett or Bruces fault he has been injured. The fact is that over the last two years these injuries and these injuries alone have prevented him from playing and to imply that Muzzy is in some way either to blame, isonly retiring because we are relegated or even worse has enjoyed picking up his pay cheque for doing nothing is scandelous. There is absolutely no eveidence to suggest that the Muzzy Izzett is anything but an honest hard working and talented footballer who has ultimately had to give way to injuries from which despite everyones efforts he has not been able to recover. |

He played in 30 out of 38 league games in his last season at Leicester. Hardly a bad record. |

**thumbup Spot on. I'd like people to realise that maybe Bruce throwing him back in, at the earliest oppourtunity may have finally taken his toll on Izzet. As for being mediocre, we've played our best football when hes been in the side. Some children need to grow up. Some people need to read things carefully, to digest, hes not considering his career with Blues for another team. Hes considering retirement from football, most likely from injury, yet hes battled back most of this season. |

i've never questioned his ability - but the fact is, he's another crock on big wages doing nothing for bcfc. yes he's able to pass the ball adequately for his average of 10 mins per match, we need quite a bit more than that imo, especially where we're going to be plying our footy next season...and before you ask, yes i do begrudge him his £25k per week or whatever it is, very poor value for money imo... <_< |

But there is a very big difference between turning out to be bad value because of injuries that could not have been forseen when he signed and that despite everyones best efforts, he has failed to overcome (a statement I agree with) and the implication in the original post that there is blame attached to Izzet for somehow cynically exploiting the situation (an implication that I believe is unfair and unfounded) |

i can see that, i dont blame izzett personally - if someone offered me £25k a week to nurse a bruised knee for 2 years i'm sure i'd take the offer up. but the FACT is, he's exactly the sort of player we've built into our squad who've sent us down. as ds says, now is the time to bomb them out and get good, young, FIT players in for what will be a very challenging season ahead. i wish muzzy a happy and healthy retirement if thats what he chooses - nothing personal fella.. ;) |

I can see how people can be frustrated about him not playin much but calling him mediocre when he did play isn't right. At times he and Johnson were the best players. They won everything in the middle and he has just been unfortunate as has everyone else in the team with injuries. Something has got to change with training or fitness or whatever because no other clubs have had injuries like us. |

I agree with that I would not keep him on unless we were assured the injury problems were sorted. I was responding to the original post and some of teh early replies that appeared to imply that in some way he had been deliberately taking us for a ride. I do really believe the whole Izzet saga has been unlucky and there is no blame attached to anyone on this |

It all depends on the extent of the injury and if its the same one hes been nursing since Newcastle at home, 04/05 season. Afteralll ,we never really heard the extent of the injury. This season, i blame Bruce for Izzets predicament. No friendlies, no recovery time, just thrown straight back in, as soon as hes able to walk. Hes done it with Dunn, Sutton at times, Stan at times, Upson, and they all have broken down or reinjured after a game or two, or even prematch warm-ups. Injury curse, bad luck, call it what you want, some have been self-inflicted. |
