apparantley hes gone to bum some sheep in Wales Losing a player like Mcphail for £0 is bad business, should have offered him a contract earlier but.... we all know about finances etc (unlucky Cardiff, your in the **** and its getting worse) id rather bring in a defensive midfielder to allow Howard to go forward and do what he does best (getting in good positions in the box and shooting at goal). Yes Mcphail can pass a ball we all know that but he didnt really score many goals and wasny the strongest presence defensivley. the team would be improved if we got a mint defensive midfielder who can do what Mcphail does (pass well) but also give our defense vital cover and allow Howard to bomb forward. Got to look at the positives.
The main positive is, we've got rid of a work-shy softy. I'd much rather have a player who isn't afraid to put the foot in all season round, instead of when it's coming upto the time to make himself look good for other clubs to take a look. I never liked McPhail, always thought he was a poncy *****, now I think he's a money grabbing poncy *****, and I hope, he gets both his legs broken on his Cardiff City debut.
