Mikkel "Mix" Diskerud [Midfielder]

It really takes the saga to an entirely different level when they send him to a bank when the rest of the team has a fan event. This truly is the situation where an employer informs an employee that he is being fired but agrees to temporarily keep him on the payroll and allow him to use a cubicle until he finds a new employer, but under no circumstances shall he be permitted to perform any substantive work.

Like in Office Space. That guy ended up with his stapler and on a beach drinking a cold drink with an umbrella.

This sounds right. Which makes you wonder just what could possibly have happened between him and PV. This can't be performance. It absolutely has to be attitude. I can't see any other way.

It may seem like the logical explanation but I'm not sure I buy it.... Mix has been the absolute epitome of a team player when the chips have been down, not once running his mouth or taking to the interweb. And it's because of that self-control that I find it impossible to believe it's an attitude problem. Maybe he schooled Vieira in practice and this is the prize/mark of a sore loser? Dunno, but I'll buy the book when it comes out.

He seems like a chill dude. Not super ambitious. That would be compatible with a) not impressing Vieira, b) not running his mouth on the Internet.

There are many kinds of attitude problems :)
 
Turns out he was in fact, at the team signing. Nothing to fret over.

If Mix was definitely not coming back next year, I would have expected some type of announcement from the club by now. Do we know for sure yet if his contract is up or if he still has another year or two? I remember some unconfirmed mention of a four year contract but not sure it's official or has out clauses.

Four years. Two left.
