Utterly pathetic. No appreciation of the fact that he's terrible and keeping a kid out of the side.
The next quote is also ridiculous "Wellens also backed Saints to go all the way in the play-offs, despite suffering season-ending injuries to playmakers Luke Walsh, Jon Wilkin and Jonny Lomax.
He said: “We’ve had to come up with a different system to play with. We’ve had to rip up the play book in some respects and condense all the work we’d normally do on combinations in a two to three week period. It’s not ideal but needs must.
“But everyone has really embraced it and things are coming together.”Not sure being embarrassed at home by Warrington is 'coming together'. But then that shows his captaincy capabilities off well. The whole club is suffering from a overestimation of their abilities and being top, simply because the other sides aren't going all out due to the current play off format, is again papering over the cracks.
Another thing I love about the article is how smug Wellens is about playing again. He knows as well as we all do that he can simply choose whether to get a new contract and that he's already guaranteed a spot in the 17. Again, sums the club up, no ambition and no chance of trophies over the next few years unless there is a major change in mentality. At the moment 'ok' is enough.
