Weston “Chubby Bunny” McKennie (57 Viewers)
- Thread starter KB824
- Start date
The negotiations for the contract renewal of Weston McKennie are still at a stalemate, even though there will be a discussion between the parties before the end of the season. In addition to the interest from MLS, keep an eye also on #Milan, #Tottenham (and other European clubs) who are sniffing out the possible free transfer...

0 goals and 0 assists in 980 minutes. The only player managing to outdo McKennie in lack of end product is Locatelli, with 0 G/A in 1060 minutes.
And these aren’t fringe players. These are the two who’ve survived every chapter of the banter era. The two with the most appearances in the current Juventus squad.
They’ve become the face of the stagnation. Not disasters, just permanently average. The kind of players who never do enough harm to get dropped, and never do enough good to move the team forward. That’s the worst possible combination. They normalize mediocrity. They spread it. Their ceiling becomes the team’s ceiling.
You look at them and you can trace the whole downfall - safe choices, predictable performances, no spark, no edge. They’re not leaders, even though they captain or have captained the team. They’re not difference-makers, they’re just… there. And the more they stay, the more the team plays like them.

Hopefully. JJ fans don't deserve him. Half of them were jerking themselves over Locatelli and Cambiaso, two of the worst players we have ever had. Some of them also like Spunkletti. They're a total clown show of a fan base.
Mckennie led the team in assists previously. You conveniently forgot about that. Yildiz isn't even in the top 25 in scoring in Serie A. The only good talent in the league is Nico Paz and that's pretty much it.
Well, they definitely have a better chance of succeeding at Milan instead of this total clown show at JJ.
Dude thinks just because Mckennie leaves that magically we'll play Miretti and Adzic and whatever the new 21 year old talent is from Next Gen. Some people never learn.

McKennie isn't THE problem anymore. He's where the infection started. He's patient zero of this whole decline. Then Arthur, Locatelli, Gatti, Cambiaso and others picked up the strain.
Once that standard was accepted, the entire squad drifted into the same rhythm. Low risk, low output, low expectations. It's not even about talent anymore. It's about the culture they helped shape. A team absorbs personality of its core players, and with McKennie and Locatelli leading the way, "doing just enough" turned into the default setting.
This mindset is the real damage patient zero caused.
