wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted December 1, 2016 Read in the local paper that we have made an approach for him, around half a million apparently. Started at Sunderland, went as far down as Plymouth, now doing well for Barnsley, and a couple of call ups for Ireland too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wcorkcanary 4,329 Posted December 1, 2016 Have seen him play DM and RM , not really. a winger tho. Quite a powerful lad. A mix of Tettey and howson perhaps. Bit of a leader too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westcoastcanary 173 Posted December 1, 2016 [quote user="norfolkngood"]Midfielder how many do we need !!CB x1 maybe 2 and striker before we spend any more please[/quote]It''s not a question of "how many" but "how effective". How much more evidence do we need that our current midfielders are ineffective when it comes to protecting the back four? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 271 Posted December 1, 2016 Great player for champs, combative central midfielder who can create and score, absolutely central to their drive up league one last season. He has drive and leadership and would lower the average age of the squad, for those reasons alone he would be a good signingI suspect he is still improving so could possibly upgrade. Not sure he is as good as what he have when they were at their best, but currently their best looks to be behind them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 0 Posted December 2, 2016 The guy is a class act and has been one of the outstanding midfielders in the division this year. Our midfield desperately needs a revamp so if he was available for reasonable money he''d be an excellent addition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
