maybe his hand eye coordination is crap,maybe he is long sighted,maybe he is a gentle giant and dosen't want to hurt anyone or maybe he is worried about all his suspension he has has this year and dosen't want another one when he goes to play for his dad.
who knows???????
personally if i was coach and he then signed for another club, i wouldn't play him again for the rest of the year and i would have used a player that was going to be there for the longer term.
i know its a business/professional game, but they are my views-no loyalty no game time
