Snowflake Royal Millsy morganb I wonder if Liam Moore stood up to Pauno/gave him a piece of his mind so Velko went running to Mr Dai? Then the ostracism of Moore could have 'upset' the rest of the team hence the performances? Neither arrogant Pauno or Dai want to lose face by backing down so just make matters worse by digging their heels in.
Be careful, that doesn't fit HNA's narrative that Moore is just rubbish, selfish and a general tosser, who is definitely the one in the wrong and must be hated.
Even though he comes across as a thoroughly nice chap in all interviews I've seen and clearly does have ability - we're not exactly solid without him are we. I was laughed at for even suggesting the possibility that he hated how he was being asked to play and might've stood up to Pauno out of frustration.
But no let's stick to the narrative.
It's amazing how this sticking up to Pauno coincides with rumours of misconduct, transfer requests and club action clearly driven by the owner, not manager.
The owner is several thousand miles away and probably doesn't remember he even owns us.
Pauno is the man with boots on the ground dealing with people day in day out and supposedly man-managing. Whatever issue Moore has clearly is something Pauno is involved with or could manage/alleviate somehow. I mean, that's literally what he's paid to do while our Owner does whatever he's doing abroad.
Not saying this is what is going on - it is entirely possible the Owner and Moore have been having arguments bypassing Pauno altogether - but it's bemusing to me that the sheer possibility of Moore having a point and being upset with Pauno is met with such derision.
