Great signing. What a back 3 we have. Looking at the England squad - who is genuinely better than Davies and Dawson? Cahill apart I don't see anyone. Jagielka will be very nearly 34 at the Euros. Smalling (especially) and Jones are both not maturing into the great defenders we thought they may. Is there an argument for having 2 centre backs that are used to playing together every week in the England squad? Especially if Cahill gets injured - or even the newly-famed-as-Van-Gaal-is-a-master-technician-and-noone-was-using-it-before-the-world-cup 3-5-2? I realise this will not happen unless we miraculously break top 6 but hey... just a thought.
McGregor Elmo/Rosy Chester Dawson Davies Robertson/Brady Hudd Quinn/Meyler Livermore Ince/Aluko Jelavic doesn't look too bad........
It'd be great Elle walking down Main st USA and someone shouting out Daws isnt number 3 you tight git
Michael Dawson *Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap* Should get a showing at games nowadays as a nice homage to andy.
Tell you what, if the boy Maguire is as talented as he's supposed to be, he's going to get all the support and guidance he needs with the experience of Dawson & Davies as colleagues and Bruce as Manager. Great signing, worthy of the 3yr deal.
Well done Steve Bruce. A vital cog in our Premier League survival plan. Five days to go we need a striker and a mid field general please Steve!!
