The difference between a national trying to encourage disturbance and a local write up
He seems like a bad apple. Always got something to say.
Slap in the reserves and let him rot.
The joys of a good,top reporter
Putting there spin on an interview they
Probably didn't attend.
Superb click bait TB!
It’s a funny one this. In many ways, I think Gray has improved his interviews and has clearly been told by his advisors to stop moaning once he started negotiating a new deal.
But I still do find a constant underlying theme to his words which is basically “I’m so good I should be playing every week”.
The main problem I have with that, is he’s not.
Like everyone else, he needs to earn his place in the team. I at least think that he acknowledges this in his interview. He’s had lots of opportunities this year, but has only really put in two decent halves of footvall, granted one was MOTM and game winning form.
So, for me he can start moaning when he’s actually delivering on a consistent basis. Let’s hope he does.
Over to you Gray.
Ps. How soil destroying is it that England are so weak these days we have Abraham anywhere near the squad. Bad times!

I'll never get anything planted.
Far from slamming the club, but he's right. Look at the state of the England squad right now, with the lack of quality and the drop outs. Doesn't mean he has a divine right to start for us though.
I've grown really tired over the months of hearing how Demarai Gray is complaining about his lot again. However, I don't see that he's said an awful lot wrong here. He wants to play, he's knocking on the door, granted I'd rather he kept it internal but he's hardly slamming the club.
All that said, I remain convinced that he only views us as a stepping stone, and it won't be long after establishing himself in the first team that we'll be hearing about how he deserves a move to a top club. So it's difficult to gain a particular attachment to him.

Yes, spot on. This is exactly what I was thinking.
If he comes in the team and plays badly he'll get dropped and then moan that he needs to move to somewhere as he deserves to be playing.
If he comes into the team and plays well then after a few games he'll think he needs to be playing at Chelsea or Man City and moan that we're holding him back.
He just seems to be that sort of player/person.
Cue Nev telling us how it'd be no surprise that he wants to move on when we don't appreciate young talented individuals like him and over-appreciate the workhorses who won the league.
Agree also.
I guess this happens all the time with mid size clubs but it is perhaps more difficult to hear because we have been so lucky in general with the commitment from players over recent years and their willingness to buy into the ethos of our club. I guess, trying to be objective, this perhaps may make us a little harder on such players or, as already mentioned, at least find it difficult to form an attachment particularly in comparison to other players at the club.
Ergo - he hasn’t done much if anything wrong, but he isn’t helping his myself. Probably a reasonable summary for Gray
Oh here we go again
More amunition for Grays haters at LCFC
Unfirtunatey he has this reputation for being a rent a quote , the type the lazy clowns in the media love, so they can spread malitios rubbish. I suspect this was not his full interview, but its been taken out of context to suit the media.
Somebody from the club ,or his advisor, should be taking Gray to one side and telling nim to concentrate on playing abd avoiding interviews with the gutter press.
By the way according to todays merc he may not have to wait long for his full England call up, Beazil on Tuesday.
and if he does continue to play well for us , and particularly England, yes he will be attracting bigger clubs
but will also attract a much bigger price. Given his age/ability 40 to 50 million ?
Demari Gray, Gray,Gray
Maguire and Vardy to start tonight, if they had Simpson and Allbrighton as well they'd have the start of a decent team.
Gray hasn't done anything wrong when he says that he thinks that he should have started more for Leicester.It shows his eagerness to play for Leicester and England senior team which is only a good thing.Some people complain about anything.

😂
Nev was right, international break is dead boring. Scoop - Demari Gray thinks he's better than he is! Yawn.
£40/50 million
What you smoking because I need some!
Maybe you mean in 2 seasons time
If he set's the premier league alight
We can't get that for mahrez at the minute,
I missed the game last night, how did Maguire and Vards get on?
Maguire had a very shaky first 5 minutes
With a couple of errors,
But after that very confident especially going forward
Created 2 good chances with his forward running
Especially one that was about 60yds and took out their midfield and created a chance, 7/10
Vardy did a vardy
made To play too defensive so not available for the quick break.
Got a few chances miss placed header probably the best
Work wise 9/10- game wise 7?
Cheers Dublin - shame neither properly shone but didn’t sound like the game they were going to be able to shine in.
Appreciate the update 👍
Well trust Mr Gray to drop a banger in bonfire week.
He would not of got a look in during the EPL winning season and CR has a reputation for bringing on new players.
When he has a good season gets ten goals and more assists then he can say what he wants. He will make it i have no doubt.
Didn't Solanke play for England tonight despite not having started for Liverpool yet in the Premier League, didn't seem to hold him back from being selected.
True Blue how did Solanke perform today for England as I didn't watch England friendly today.
Watch England play in a Friendly?
