However, already I've found occasions where there isn't a suitable thread to discuss something about a player.
Although it hasn't happened, probably because people are terrified that if they open a thread they'll wake up in the middle of the night in the dark with Michael & Hinesy just standing looking at them menacingly, we expected more threads to emerge about player matters. So the example of Sturridge wining player of the month would be topical. A thread would be created, it would include everything about how he's achieved it with both agreements and disagreements. Then it would either become irrelevant and fade in to obscurity or more likely it would descend in to the circular crap and get locked having had its 15 days of glory in the quiet world of RAWK. Then we'd start again accordingly.
However, the said thread would be observed more closely by the Mods, we'd delete some of the random posts that maybe you wouldn't even notice in a typical 40-post per page player thread that accumulates 50 or more pages of irrelevance.
I think that will be how it works. There are of course many other examples of why a thread could start, but if they are crap it will be locked and the OP warned - and that's not being heavy handed, it to prevent attention seekers and banal threads.
So the message is, find something good to discuss or click about somewhere else.
Hope that helps mate, as James says it very early days and we, the Mods, honestly haven't got a template for the ideal outcome for discussing players. But what was clear is that they were unfollowable and too far opinionated.
BTW, I still think Lovren should have got motm 3 times this season although apparently "he's just not good enough"
