Let’s just say that Mr Rubie’s views on religion and sexuality are far from enlightened.I would be surprised if he hasn’t already apologised to Jurgen Klopp, sporting director Michael Edwards and academy director Alex Inglethorpe for his agent’s outrageous conduct.But the important thing is to show his remorse publicly. Ich war nur ein Jahr dort, aber ich konnte dort keinen direkten Weg ins erste Team erkennen. Learning my trade. Es fehlte etwas. Der Spieler erklärte bei seinem Wechsel vor einem Jahr seine große lebenslange Liebe für den Verein um nur ein Jahr später Richtung Italien weiter zu ziehen.In einem Interview mit Viola Nation, der Nachrichtenseite von Fiorentina, sagt er:Bobby Duncan, der Cousin von Steven Gerrard und absoluter Liverpool Fan verließ den Verein im Sommer Richtung Italien und spielt dort nun für die U19 von Fiorentina.Steven Gerrards Cousin scheint nicht mehr viel Liebe für die Reds übrig zu haben: "Ich habe Liverpool immer geliebt, aber jetzt liebe ich Fiorentinas Fans.
It’s in his blood. I had made the grade at Anfield.Bobby has two years left on the deal he signed when he arrived from Manchester City’s academy last summer.I went away and got back to scoring heavily for the reserve and youth teams. Die Reds nehmen den Transfer mittlerweile gelassen.Alex Inglethorpe, der Leiter der Liverpooler Akademie akzeptiert es, dass nicht jeder Spieler davon überzeugt werden kann einen gemächlicher Weg durch die Jugendränge als richtig anzusehen. A proper Scouser!I didn’t get off the bench that night as we suffered a shock 2-0 defeat, but I assumed my debut wouldn’t be long in coming.It might also be wise for him to dispense with the services of his agent – or at the very least make sure he tethers Saif Rubie to a very short leash.Unfortunately for him, he wasn’t switched on enough to press the delete button before some Liverpool fans had taken a look at some of his previous traffic. Ich muss die Liebe zurückgeben, die sie mir bei meinem Wechsel entgegengebracht haben. Liverpool zu verlassen war eine schwierige Entscheidung. But they can be repaired.Rubie has now taken down his Twitter account – which is the only sensible thing he has done during this whole sorry episode.His claim that Bobby is being kept at Anfield against his will and is now suffering with mental health issues has to be taken seriously.I am desperately sad to say that it isn’t going to happen. Bobby Duncan says he leaves Liverpool with ‘special memories’ after sealing his permanent move to Fiorentina. I know where he’s coming from.But Rubie did Bobby no favours by going public about his client’s “small salary” or Liverpool’s apparent reluctance to offer him a new contract.He is also a bright, bubbly kid who is popular in the dressing room. The 18-year-old’s agent, Saif Rubie, hit out at the club via Twitter on Wednesday, attacking sporting director Michael Edwards and alleging that Duncan is being kept at Liverpool against his will and that his client’s mental health has suffered as a result of his treatment by the Reds.On Thursday, Duncan tweeted, “I just want to play football!”Liverpool have so far rejected what has been described as a ‘derisory’ £1.6m bid for Duncan, who was instrumental in winning the FA Youth Cup last season, from Fiorentina.Rubie seems to have since deleted his Twitter account.But barely any sooner than it was posted, the message was deleted.Duncan seemed to temporarily endorse Rubie’s initial statement about Liverpool’s treatment of him by retweeting it. Höhen und Tiefen seien allerdings Teil des Prozesses und die Spieler müssen lernen, sich sowohl mental als auch technisch entsprechend anzupassen. Bobby Duncan has today completed a permanent transfer to Serie A side Fiorentina. Es war weder Geld noch etwas anderes. I was disappointed – but it didn’t even enter my head to demand a transfer or get my agent to slag off the club in the newspapers.I may be 10,000 miles away from home in Brisbane, but I could feel the shockwaves caused by Rubie’s disgraceful attack on LFC this week.Bobby himself posted a tweet which, I believe, illustrates where he’s at. Ich denke, dasselbe gilt auch für die meisten Spieler.
