Hands up anyone who'd rather have Luke young (better than O'shea), matthew upson (better than Brown) and Seb Larsson (better than Gibson) all for the astronomical jount transfer fee of £0. Beggers belief if we sign the Man Utd three for the price being quoted. id be curious to know individual prices for each player if the sum is £12m.
Gibson I'd take, the others.....? Not so hot. Would I throw up if we did? Only if there was a mag handy, methinks.
3 good premiership players in my opinion. Only concern is; are brown and o'shea injury prone? not sure, please inform.
Me too, O'shea and Brown will add much needed experience to our young squad. Gibson just needs a run of games, and he's got a cracking shot on him!
lads we could possibly get O'Shea, Gibson, Brown - reported 12m N'Gog 4m Westwood, Larsson - free agents all from the 16m that Henderson has gone for, if it does Brucie deserves a big pat on the back and thats before we even think about the money from Bent and his replacement (Pav hopefully)
Luke young better than O'shea give your head a shake, i will be very amazed if SAF would let O'shea go, his versatility is worth a fee alone. If it came off 3 good signings but I will show my arse in Doggarts window if it happens
O Shea I would say defo- cracking defensive player who can play anywhere across the back 4. Gibson seems to have loads of potential, but Brown I wouldn't be that bothered about, but hey I'll support him if he does pull on the red and white, even though I don't particularly rate him. But O Shea and Brown together? Where are they all gonna fit in? Who are we dropping.
Id much rather have Luke Young for free than O'shea for £5m. I used Young as he's a solid prem full back and he's free. O'shea is an average utility player who's been carried by playing in a team with world class players. Upson is better than Brown simply because he can actually play a game of football and hasnt spent his entire career injured.
Get a grip man. How many medals have these players won ? More than our whole squad put together I dare say.
I don't think I'll be physically sick, I once saw and smelt a mag at close range with no shirt on with only a small gag, so signing 3 very decent, experienced, ex-Man U players probably won't make me like this...
You can't say just because someone has won medals that they are necessarily better than someone who hasn't. Is Gibson better than Fabregas because he has more league champions medals? is Wes Brown better than Brede Hangeland? Dare I mention a striker who used to play up the road who only won 1 league winners medal
Again, spot on syd. They are winners, they bring experience and a winning mentality SAF demands. cant see owt but good in the deal.
More ****e while Ive been at work, for me the odd man out is Brown, another sicknote, rather keep Mensah. but did like O shea, but that was a long time ago.
