The penny dont drop with him does it.
I think fans forgive a lot of off the field stuff but when you cant be bothered to try on the pitch, you are taking the p**s out the club.
Sad thing is a half motivated Berahino is better than any other striker, yet at the moment he isnt even half motivated and is getting worse. If i was Pulis i would punish him until it sinks in, every day he was late for training, wait for him to turn up, tell him he is fined a weeks wages and to go back home. Same on matchdays, every time he turns up late, say thanks for coming but your not needed, your fined now off you pop back home and it would seem when he is in those moods, it shows on the pitch as he does nothing.
Pulis keep putting him on the bench is a concern, if he is a big t**t as reported and by some of Pulis comments it would seem he is, banish him til he changes, Berahino will think i can do what i want and make the squad anyway, it keeps people talking about him, as i say when he is in his idiot mode we dont miss him anyway. A interested or even half interested Berahino is a different story.
I know people say he is a valuable asset, he is only valuable if others want to buy him, if he is still here end of the window, then if his attitude stays the same, personally i would make him train on his own away from the club, he is on £15k a week, we have others in the squad who earn more than that and dont play so that shouldnt be a factor.
Make him come in two afternoons a week when the other players have gone, beast him and see how he responds, if you see improvement get him back in with the squad, if you dont keep doing it, i think he probably has too many people kissing his backside and been nice to him and its created a arrogant, unprofessional git, maybe he needs some tough love, it will do him good in the long run.
I remember when Fletcher first joined, the first few months it was said he was going to act as Saido mentor, Pulis was making the right noises too but even they seem to of give up on him, people will only stand so much, its happened a lot and he has to realise for himself.
In his world god is great and he loves him mum, surely people around him who care about him must shake him up, he has a talent for scoring goals which if he sorts his attitude out would mean most the country would want him, he has the talent but things like turning up late, not being arsed on the pitch is not only bad manners, its unprofessional and disrespectful and if he was a relative or friend of mine i would be telling him that, not just a lesson in football, in life itself.
