disconnect Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Thanks for the service Danny. Was good in the promotion season and was part of some very good team performances since. Are we bringing in another left back?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Made some vital assists in the promotion season and always gave 100%. No shame in not being good enough for PL football. Hope he does well. Always remember that Shaw said Fox has given him the most support of any player in our squad. Deserves respect for that.

St.Patrik Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Surely not - Clyne can cover that spot so no other needed really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a1ex2001 Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 slightly concerned about the lack of left back cover if Danny has gone, I know most people think he's rubbish but who else do we have? are we saying that the next in line from the youth team is ready?

Saint Garrett Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Key part of our promotion, not good enough for the Prem, wish him the best of luck for the future - Lallana's best mate as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Chalet Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Good luck Danny. Honest pro who lacked the positionall awareness to continue with us in the Prem. Lallana put him in his personal XI Saints players and he has been a great help in developing Luke Shaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben05 Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Quite Sad to see him go to be honest. Yes he wasn't Premier League standard but he was a big character in the dressing room. Some great memories of him on the last day against Coventry on peoples shoulders. That tackle in the snow at Birmingham, that goal at Arsenal. He may have lacked in ability but he always gave 100% and played for the shirt. Good luck Foxy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericb Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 On loan until the end of the season and then a permanent transfer, who'll be the target of the hate mob now? As far as i saw it Danny Fox was never "targeted by the hate mob" he was quite simply nowhere near good enough for the premier league and nearly everybody could see that/got frustrated by it. Of course that doesn't fit into the general hyperbole that this place is so found of, where you either have to be with something or against something (a bit like the Mccarthy trials in the states).

I imagine with the emergence of Chambers the plan would be to stick Clyne at LB in the case of Shaw being injured/unavailable. Also, is this the one out MP hinted at post-Arsenal?

Colinjb Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 (edited) Good luck to him, thanks for playing your part in our rise Danny. Frankly, better planning would have ensured that he wouldn't have been exposed at Premier League level, he probably should have left along with Hammond and Harding back in the summer of 2012. Not signing Buttner necessitated his stay. Edited 30 January, 2014 by Colinjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Would people really play Clyne at left back? He's totally one footed! I'd have him out of position over Fox any day, Fox's positioning was shocking and he made some dreadful errors. Having said that, Fox was a decent player in the Championship and an important figure in our promotion. Never gave less than 100% for us, good luck to him at Forest. Does this mean he will be pushing Dan Harding out the team for the second time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectisSaint Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Would people really play Clyne at left back? He's totally one footed! Yes. He has played in the position very well when asked to play there already. In fact he looked just as good at LB as he does at RB when he has played there. I have no qualms about Clyne playing LB if needed, but hopefully he won't need to unless Shaw goes down with Nandos belly again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
positivepete Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 A good move for him, it really cant be fun being a footballer who only trains and never plays, they do not have that long a career.

At no time did KL say no one would leave, she said we had no plans to sell any players in January...and we haven't. We could loan out the whole squad and she'd still be right. We have also said that we have no plans to sell any of the squad during the January transfer window.

The Cat Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 I'm only glad he's gone so people stop moaning about him. Hate it when the crowd gets on a players back and the collective sighing, tutting and groaning when he missed a tackle or made a bad pass was embarrassing. Forest may get promoted so we could see him back at St Mary's next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonb Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Good luck Foxy! As one or two other s have said he and Shaw had built up a great relationship and Shaw speaks very highly of him. This cannot be underestimated and unlike a mercenary he was a team player and a valuable part of that team.

Olallana Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 In a classic 4-4-2 system Fox could be decent even in Premier League if he would have a midfielder helping and protecting him. In our system fullbacks are often exposed with 2-on-1 situations and in that he is too slow and indecisive to make it work. Probably better though for him to play in the championship, he´ll do a job there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
