Moyes said: “We’ve done bits and pieces with Yann. We’re in contact with Ruben. We’re doing a bit behind the scenes on that. It’s a difficult one because we know he’s out of contract in January and it’s a bit to do with the costing of that. We’re trying to get ourselves a good deal if we can.”
If there is anyone apart from the clubs executives who think that £5m is steep for Mvila. John Oshea is playing center mid for us against man city. Let that sink in...
Let's not make oshea latest scapegoat, he did little wrong today. It's down full backs we were at a loss, and that little **** sterling played well today
No scapegoating here just pointing bout how absurd it is to haggle over the fee when we have no real alternative in the squad
He was knackard man. He was done on 55 minutes. Engine's ****ed, certainly in that position. Not making him a scapegoat. But it's clear to see he's past it. 5th choice cb and 19th choice cm he should be.
Think the point I was making he is out of position and he for sure wasn't dreadful. I am a massive mvila fan therefore agree. Saying all that I am little surprised he didn't put McNair in. 19th choice bit harsh Bri lol
This M'villa business may not all be down to the club though. Possibly the money is allocated but the player is maybe saying don't give it to them but to me in terms of loyalty bonuses over a five year contract. Just food for thought.
True professional, he did what he was asked to do to he best of his ability. He must of seen the teamsheet and thought "oh ****" He's getting on and is a central defender by trade... I think he did OK (& hope it's the last time I see him in that position)
It obviously apparent (or should be) to all Bri that the lad isn't comfortable in that role. To be brutally honest he is starting to struggle in his preferred position. I've never been a lover of playing players out of position, doing that in itself tells you one thing... You are short of personnel !!! Maybe a master stroke by Moyes, highlighting the fact we are woefully short to the 'men upstairs'?!?
Shaddappayorface!! I sorted your bloody spelling out on your poll didn't ah!! Had my modding for the day!!
Blunham, Just a question, nothing to do with this thread. (You are a mod, aren't you) My mate tried to join not606 for SAFC and completed all the parts yet he gets a message saying something like not yet approved. He is unable to join. He's using an iPad (like I am now) Do you have any advice for him to get up and running. Sorry to hijack the thread bug I don't know how to contact the mods direct.
This site can't have new members, the registration is knackered. It's been like that for some time, apparently.
