Oxford Canary 0 Posted May 16, 2012 Would be ideal as our defensive midfielder replacing Crofts IMHO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Allman 1 Posted May 16, 2012 Nigel Mediocre. No thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William Darby 0 Posted May 16, 2012 He gives me the impression that he''s never quite lived up to his potential and large price tag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 739 Posted May 16, 2012 Don''t know about his wage demands, but I''d guess they''re probably a bit too hefty for what he offers. Not a bad player by any means though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tangible Fixed Assets anyone? 0 Posted May 16, 2012 No thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy_Bones 441 Posted May 17, 2012 I''d rather have Crofts tbh.NR-C is a very underwhelming player, who''s struggled to look good even in poor Villa and Bolton sides, and I can''t think of a single midfielder we have that I wouldn''t select over him, and that includes Crofts, Smith and Adeyemi...

smooth 114 Posted May 17, 2012 When we got Francis, Reo Coker was seen as the better of the two. I would have gone for Reo-Coker in 2003 and again following our relegation from the prem last time.That was a long time ago and I owuld not bother.As mentioned Stuart Holden would be a midfielder that I would love here.

Stretcharm 0 Posted May 17, 2012 Mark Davies from Bolton would be a better option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary Poirot 1 Posted May 17, 2012 No - give Reo-Coker a miss. He was nicknamed jigsaw once, as he goes to pieces in the box.Villa payed £8 million for him - I think that''s why they finished 16th last season and are broke - bought rubbish for too much.

Salopian 1 Posted May 17, 2012 No thanks - may round around the pitch but achieves little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJP 79 Posted May 17, 2012 I think he''s alright. I''m not saying he''s a really great player but I think he''d improve the squad. He''s been fairly decent for Bolton this season in a team that has struggled. I doubt he''ll be short of offers, despite how many people on here don''t think he''s up to much.
