I think it says something about the way the club is going that this going, that the best message coming from the players right now is someone that is on his way out of the club.
Blues find themselves going into the final day of the season needing a result to stay in the division, something we’ve become accustomed to over the past few years, and you can tell that it is really starting to take its toll on certain members of the club.
You’ve got caretaker head coach Steve Spooner talking about his anger at the situation Blues find themselves in, and now young superstar Jude Bellingham seems to be at near breaking point, at least that’s what his latest post on Twitter would indicate.
Is Jude Bellingham our Player of the Year?
Yes
No
Taking to social media after the loss to Preston North End, the 17-year-old spoke about just how much the bad run of form has affected him, probably stemming from the fact he’s a Blues fan himself.
A message which fans used as a bit of a rallying point to show their support for the youngster, who seems to be the only one coming out of this bad run with any kind of credit or respect.
You’re making senior pro’s look like school boy’s with their attitude and effort.

Never has the term ‘playing with heart’ been so applicable Jude 💙

You’re the only one that looks like you’re remotely bothered about performances well played Jude, absolutely gutted the Derby game is gonna be the last time we see you in a blues shirt

You’re one of the only that care. Thanks Jude 💛

Mature beyond your years to front up but you don’t have to take responsibility for this mess. Wish we could be down there on Wednesday to give you the send off you deserve #KRO

The only one who genuinely feels the pain. Shame those around you gave up since the return of football.

What about you? What do you make of Bellingham’s comments?
Jude says “We won’t give up” – I wish I could believe he was speaking for the rest of the team. They have one last chance to prove Jude is right. The reward for his efforts should be to make him captain for the Derby game and hopefully inspire/shame his team mates to give 100%.
