Yes. He's a lazy, flaky good for nothing useless lump, as you have pointed out plenty of times before he turned out to be our best player of the campaign by a country mile.
I wasn't saying that! It was a genuine question.
Keane is coming back from U.S. Brady was taken off injured at weekend. Long playing 90 minutes every week and back from injury. I get all of that.
Walters is in and out of the team at Stoke. You would think he'd be fresh as a daisy. But every Intl gathering he seems to sit out training sessions.
I was simply wondering if it was a long-term issue.
TBH, no one really cares about his training once he continues to deliver on the pitch as he has done all of the Euro campaign.
Walters is supposed to be one of the hardest work players on the pitch according to an article I read recently.
Born out by these stats, stamina 91

Maybe he sits out training becasue of all the effort he puts in during the match?
In fact you would be hard pushed to find a higher stamina rathing but I did find Kevin De Bruyne on 92
You do know we're not playing them at FIFA, right?
It was well documented that he had been managing a knee injury and that, as far as I recall, he was avoiding surgery so he could keep playing. Whether that's still the case I don't know.Originally Posted by TheOneWhoKnocks
I do, but they are a pretty decent guide, in fact we are lucky to have them, the game makers obviously put a lot of
effort into making their game realistic so we should be thankful for them, I mean opta do stats but you have to
pay for them now, however we can get these stats for free, I mean the company that makes the EA gets well
over $1 billion in revenue so they can afford to put a lot of time and money into gathering the data so I expect
their stats are better than what Opta provide (at a price!).
The Off The Ball guys were saying he's going back to Stoke for treatment on his hamstring, but that he's expected back to attend the Switzerland game and hopefully be involved for Tuesday. They were talking about how "it's the most Jonathan Walters thing ever" to make such an effort even though he can't play. Now, if only we could get the lazy scoundrel to do a bit of training.
Has come on for Stoke for the last half hour.
I didn't see that coming. He and Arter must have gone to Lourdes to make such miraculous recoveries.
It was the Holy Walters what did it.

Could see it happening.
Results of the vote at the bottom are interesting.
Just hope he's linked with us...this SUMMER.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Wait til he's top scorer at the Euros...
Shay Given impresses but Jon Walters struggles in Stoke loss at Evertonhttp://www.espnfc.com/club/stoke-cit...oss-at-evertonFW Jon Walters, 4 -- Looking a spent force with each and every poor showing from the bench and he was the wrong player to bring into a side needing pace through the middle. An unforgivable miss having been given the chance to put the ball into an open net by Arnautovic.
The commentators were blaming Walters for not getting on the end of Arnautovic's cross too but I thought he dropped back into the right position and Arnautovic just didn't pick him out.
GIVEN: Fully to blame… for the fact it wasn't a heavier defeat on his 450th Premier League appearance 7
WHELAN: One terrific volley during Stoke's early purple patch but could do nothing about goal deluge at wrong end 6
WALTERS: A couple of mis-cues with half chances on a frustrating return to the starting line up 6
