Why? By common consensus Ribeiro was one of our star performers last season. No idea what wage he was on but he was outstanding at times and Im sure he was / is one of our lower paid players. The problem now is that this season he is having a far tougher time and his performance on Wednesday was diabolical. Think Forest would do well to unravel why and see if we can get him back to his best before we write him off.
He just seemed to be playing under pressure all game. It may have just been because he couldnt get to grips with the winger, or there could be
underlying issues that are frustrating him. Maybe its the constant change in winger ahead of him that's not allowing him to be comfortable? I do sense that he is being targeted this season by the opposition. Maybe the pressure of that is taking it's toll. A few games out might help him a lot.

No doubt he was poor - but I do wonder, in this instance, how much of it can also be laid at Hughton’s door.

Sorry was Hughton on the pitch controlling Ribeiro?
Not sure what he can do from the sideline to support him in this instance?

Not suggesting that Wassy.
But I do believe that the way the 2 managers set their respective teams up did contribute to Ribeiro’s performance.
In no way absolving him of blame.

I know there's little point in discussing it as neither of us know the full facts and its just out opinion but Yuri confirmed on Twitter at the time that he was not injured.

Well he signed a two year contract for one thing. I am sure nobody held a gun to his head when he signed it. If he wasn't happy with the terms he shouldn't have signed it in the first place. Secondly, how does anyone have the balls to ask for more money (if it's true) straight after one of the biggest f**k ups in the history of English Football.

I think he was mate although by the time he said he wasn't on twitter he had already recovered by then. Anyone I'm leaving it alone now.

Not sure it's fair to criticise him for wanting a pay increase after a good season, particularly as his contract is up at the end of this season. Pretty standard practise to pay someone when they have a significantly below market contract, I'm sure he'd have still accepted a low-ish deal.
(Obviously I wasn't in the room...)

But it was the contract he asked for and signed when he joined the club.

True but he had a lot less bargaining power then.

Or perhaps we can just call him IV if it makes it easier (Ioannis Vrentzos).

Vrentos.
Freeman.
Freedman.
What’s another letter matter :P
Now now TPL. Behave yourself young man.
To be fair I am the only one who writes Freedman instead of Freeman :)
However the vast majority of posters don't write Vrentzos correctly.

Just my opinion but last summer I would say that he had no bargaining power whatsoever after the way last season ended.
