As a nation we don't appreciate good footballers

No, but he's proven his body is upto it now. Plus he's got a full season under his belt.

Seemingly he was highly rated before the injuries. We're just letting him prove himself.

Can't believe you'd accept 300k.

 

I don't think keane passing was top.
Roy Keane often mentions is problems as do all former players.

 

I'd drive him there for £250k. Bought him, made him better sold him, as Keith wanted

 

Best quote ever.

All Shearer did was put the ball between the posts.

 

You just can't do it can you?

 

Which quote?

Like Lineker really

 

Absolutely pencils up yer nose underpants on yer head 'wobble' mental.

 

Linker always mentions his limitations.

 

Your problem HT is in thinking that you can only play with a team that has players who wear your specific labels e.g. "I'm the water carrier" or "I'm the long haired highly shaggable creative player".

Remember the nasty but often nice to watch Leeds team. Their midfield would be Bremner and Giles with Gray and Lorimer wider. Who's wearing your identikit hats there?

There's more to football than is dreamt of in your own philosophy

Or summat

 

Can't wait for this, so what do you think he's worth then

 

Dunno. But you wanting to sell a centre half who played 40+ games in the Championship to a team that paid 5 million for a centre half last season for 300k will have you working as Don's understudy.

I'd want a million quid. Minimum. Whether he's worth that is a different matter.

 

Who's cuckoo

 

But he could pass and retain possession with either foot.

Excellent little player. Worth five Scott parkers.

 

Glad you're not in charge.

Can't get mi breath.

 

But to counter that every players analysed and they need to be very very good at one thing to play in a top team.

Scott Parker works very well in a team with Modric and RDV

 

'Pirlo only does short passes'

 

You neither if you think we can get that for Mcnulty

 

Think big my friend.

What's he's worth is down to what people will pay. It's all ******** anyway but that's the minimum I'd accept from moneybags Walkers. Seriously. Astounded you'd take 300k and be happy.

 

Last season I posted that I would accept the fact that from time to time we'd concede by playing football in all areas of the pitch (most specifically in our own half) and was called mental by Jay of all people (I respect him). I stand by that and agree with you. I'd love to see us play a progressive passing game week in, week out. If we get gubbed from time to time by doing that, then so be it. We need people like McNulty and Butterfield to do that. Perkins is also a decent footballer but only in so much as he gets the ball and tries to find a red shirt within 10-20 yards of himself. If all 11 players did that 95% of the time, I wouldn't complain.

 

At which part wouldn't you complain?

If we had 11 like Perkins we'd never go forward!
