canarychris 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Just seen that David Thompson (former Liverpool and Blackburn) has been released by Wigan. Just the sort of player we should look to bring in and solve our right midfield problem. He''s only 28, has plenty of experience and can actually take corners / free kicks so they are threatening.I guess he is another player who will be considered to be ''to injury prone'' or ''his wages will be too much'' or ''his workrates not high enough'' or ''he''s not 6 foot 5 with a good engine'', but surely if we are to turn round the abysmal season that has just finished we need to bring in quality creative players and heres one available on a free!Come on Nigel, get something right please!!!!!!!!!

Reading canary 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Good call. Exactly what we need, creative midfielder that can play on the right and take set pieces. Even if Thompson was for sale for £500k, I would still say good value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EadiesRight Foot 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Second that - Thompson would be a quality buy. He has suffered several injuries but he is still dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
