He needs to curb that vicious streak he has, but has the potential to be a top defender.

I think if he had a better temper and distribution he'd already be in the premier league with a club like Everton or Stoke.

**** all <laugh>

Had about 10 minutes on Leicester and the basically just mumbled a few targets we already know about and said that Danny is signing a 3 1/2 year deal.

Then they had some american on talking about Baseball for ages.
 
Cracking signing, and even better still if the rumours about the fee are to be believed! Just the sought of Mark Davies/ Tom Cleverly type of player we have all been hoping for!
 
Yeah, Pearson does like his Man U youth players, i bet he would have tried to sign Cleverly when he was playing for us if he had Tops backing
 
Fair enough he looked **** for them but it was probably cos of the division,

Butterfield wouldve been a better option for you guys but obviously he got micheal browned

Probably because he was 18 during his Huddersfield days.

He's been superb for Barnsley this season.
 
You came up in 2009 didn't you?

He played in the 09/10 season, so no.

Barnsley Chronicle said:
Friday 20th January 2012

Danny Drinkwater thinks Barnsley's form will not suffer despite his departure for Leicester City and the season-long injury to fellow midfielder Jacob Butterfield.

Midfielder Drinkwater spoke exclusively to the Chronicle after Leicester paid Manchester United £1million for him then he signed for the midlands club and ended his loan at Oakwell.

&#8220;There are a lot of good players at Barnsley besides me and Jacob," said the 21-year-old.

"I think they can go on and have a great season. They are a good bunch of lads and I wish them all the best.

&#8220;I was expecting to stay at Barnsley until the end of the season but Leicester met the price that Man United wanted them to pay and I was allowed to speak to them. I wanted to sort out my long term future instead of being on loan so I have signed for Leicester.I have to thank Barnsley for helping me massively this season and I will always like the club.

"I hope Barnsley supporters will understand that I worked my socks off for the club while I was there and that I was not looking for a move away.&#8221;

Ironically, the last of Drinkwater&#8217;s 18 appearances for Barnsley was in the 2-1 victory at Leicester on Saturday. His sensational performance &#8211; during which he set up both of Andy Gray&#8217;s goals &#8211; as well as the long-term injury sustained by Leicester&#8217;s midfield star Andy King are thought to have persuaded Foxes&#8217; boss Nigel Pearson to snap up the former England youth player.

That win for the Reds put them ahead of Leicester in the Championship table but Drinkwater is hoping to overhaul his former club before the end of the season.

&#8220;It was a good last game to play in and a great result for Barnsley. But now I am at Leicester and I want to make sure we finish ahead of Barnsley.

&#8220;I see the move as a step on in my career. I wanted to keep playing regular Championship football and now I will be at a club who are genuine promotion contenders rather than a club who were play-off contenders at best.&#8221;

You asked if he played for Huddersfield, then asked if he played against you.

I obviously assumed you meant 'had he played against us in league one'


As for Snodgrass, there are strong rumours we're interested.
 
It was in reply to "hes been superb for Barnsley" but for some reason I can no longer reply with a quote!

I watched him in league one n thought he was **** but havent seen him in the championship
