    Stylish at times.

    But hardly the kind of fighter 'Arry says he's looking for.

    I thought you were getting Livermore on loan? Huddlestone would be a good signing, in my opinion. Maybe not suited to your situation at the moment as I think he needs to play regularly for awhile before he gets back to his best but when he's at his best I'm sure he'd be a bargain if you got him permanently.

    That sounds more likely, won't be both will it.

    Like Huddlestone, what's Livermore like?

    Huddlestone too much like Tarbs - can show flashes of brilliance, put the effort in and the rest of the time CBA.

    He did really well for us last season probably playing more than he expected to. This season it looks like he's looked a bit slower and more cumbersome, like Huddlestone. Unfortunately, his passing is not as good as Huddlestone's although he's still a better defender. Just a thought but it might be that Redknapp also wants to use him at right back, on the handful of ocassionshe looked okay there for us last season and might provide a stronger more reliable defender than the likes of Bosingwa.

    All in all, I really don't know how he'd do for you guys so fat lot of good I am :D He impressed a lot of our fans last season and was playing more games but this season the dip in form could be due to getting less regular games or because he's simply not progressed.

    If I was picking one out of Huddlestone and Livermore I'd go for Huddlestone but it looks like it will be a loan deal eitherway so you can't really lose.

    I haven't seen much of them but if you say Livermore is better defender I'd chose him and then maybe put Mbia at CB?

    Huddlestone's got a powerful shot and can pass ok. Just don't ask him to run.

    If Faurlin is now considered to be too slow why are we looking at these two?

    I thought we put a bin in of three million but spurs wanted seven and that was the end of it. I'd be happy depending on the fee.

    Not a fan and not what we need. Gimme Parker, someone with a bit of bottle.

    A lot of newspapers "rumors" were just trash talk.

    Normally carries too much weight,slow and wants 3 touches and five seconds on the ball before he passes!. My yids pal says hes a lump,cant tackle and cant defend the middle. But can occasioanlly ping a good shot at goal. No thanks and completely the wrong kind of player.Stoke are looking at him anyway
