That's total ****e Cest, nowt to do with where he comes from, it's to do with him being ****e.
Just to put you right there marra,.
Agree, he is a mile better than Jimmy Mack like.
Well to be fair Billy, you Do have some previous when it comes to Ireland.
Didn't mean to offend mind, so apologies for that.
He is a canny footballer imo and like Fletcher before if signed, I just think that because if isn't a superstar name, people are saying if Is crap.
But just as with Fletcher, McGeady is an under rated but good football player who imo, again like Fletcher, would be an excellent signing for us.
not a fan at all, very ordinary player, everytime I have seen him (about 10times) he has been **** poor
rather have someone more direct with electric pace

I disagree with you on this cest, having watched a lot of Ireland's games I doubt there are many that would agree with this. McGeady is one of the most frustrating players you will ever see with NO end product.
Well Ive watched enough of McClean to know he is below average and also enough of McGeady to know he is better than what we have now.
If thats costing us £6m or £7m then its not massive money. I've also seen him play Champions League football and he doenst look out of his depth at all.
All about opinions of course.
I agree with the above.
Surely we don't need anymore wingers?? Johnson on the left (where e has played best for us), Sess on the right. McClean Back up for Johnson, Larsson back up for Sess job done.
Buy a decent non mag affiliated striker and were all happy.
hopefully Wigan beat us to the lads signature, yes he might be better than McClean but to be honest thats not saying much
I dont think McCLean is a back up for anyone though? I'd dooner have Johnson, Larsson, Sessegnon and McGeady fighting for places personally.
Charlie Austin is the lad for me at Burnley. He is a fantastic prospect and would be hungry for success. Get a £6m or £7m bid in now and loan them Wickham for the rest of the season as a sweetner.
No, sorry, the lad isn't very good.
He's not BAD but it would be an outrageous waste of money, he has no end product.
Dead against this one.

but we need another striker Cest, we can't swap one. Finishing the second half of the season. with just two would be madness, imo.
He had a stinker at the euros.
As someone above says, being better than jimmy mac is not the yardstick to assess an £8m purchase

Did any Irish player have a good Euro though? Worst ever finals performance in the history of the finals was due to trapapony and his negative tactics.
I remember a lot of lads on here (yourself excluded) said that Fletcher too was an outrageous waste of money. I don't see those kinds of posts now?
I think McGeady would be an excellent signing for us and offer us another option we don't have currently and he is exactly the kind of signing MoN makes at clubs that pay dividends for him.
There is not a chance we will pay 10million for the lad. his contract is up at the end of the season so if we are in for him which i doubt we are it will be a hell of a lot lower fee.
Nee need to apologise marra, you didn't offend me, I was just putting you right is all,
.
With respect Cest, you simply cannot compare Fletch and this kid.
I watch hours and hours of football a week from all over the world, and in Fletch you saw a player who always, always showed something, a player that in weak teams still looked capable of creating for himself, foraging, scoring.
In McGeady, you have a player who has spent his entire career flattering to deceive in teams that have been perenially at the top of their league, surrounded by some of the best players in the league.
You say he's played CL, he has, but he's made little impact, and any Ireland fan will tell you he has rarely, if ever performed at international level.
He simply isn't good enough, nor consistent enough, for a team that needs players who are on it to push on to the often mentioned 'next level'.
I'd have Seb, Sess, AJ, maybe even Gardner down a channel ahead of the lad, so where is the game spunking £8million and minimum 40k a week wages?
He offers nothing we don't have within a squad that needs improvement, and that says it all.
Not for us mate.
Thing is its the £8m thats sticking in peoples minds here. I dont think he will be bought for half of that and a bid of £4m would be an acceptable on for the majority. I just dont think he is as poor as is being made out here by some, inc yourself. I see a much better footballer than that.
