He was probably the best player on the park, was really impressed. There seems to be a lot of red cards over here, is it always like this?
Remember our dip in form in the weeks leading up to the Cup Final? A lot of this was put down to some players playing a way to minimise their own chances of getting an injury. Maybe this is the same situation we have with players like Hudds, Jelly and even Robertson AND the closing of the transfer window. Or maybe it was just too hot to play football today.
i agree with everything except for the 'has a goal in him' part, no worse than all the other midfielders though.
We desperately need an attacking centre mid. Surely in league 1 or 2 there is a diamond waiting to be signed?
Marcus Maddison, Peterborough or Danny Mayer, Bury ?? Also players like Hourihane at Barnsley and Lalkovic at Walsall have started the season well. Still surprised nobody's taken a punt on Scougall at Sheffield United (did well very well against us in the cup semi-final). Think Tom Bradshaw at Walsall would be a good signing, kid's having a storming start to the season!
I was just looking at midfielders from L1 and L2 that featured in the league awards at the end of the season. Most the midfielders have moved clubs already
Where have you got the info about his buy out clause from? £3m makes no sense at all. Why would you put a buy out clause in that is less than half what you paid for him.
If Meyler left tomorrow and Huddlestone stayed I'd feel we had lost something, if Huddlestone left. I would feel rather relieved . Souness was right when he said Huddlestone should be in a bigger team, because what he brings is very little to the team amd with world class players around him. he doesn't stand out as much. He has alot of effort to put in at Hull and I dont think he's up to it.
He can't be any worse than what we're currently using but he won't get a chance as Bruce will deem him as not worthy, unfortunately.
Geeze, I've gotta say those who put their faith in Akpom scoring 20+ for us might have gone a bit early on that one.
