Let me think about it for one minute! 9.5 seconds later! No ****ing way he is ****! Overated and inconsistent. Someone will pick out one of his rare good crosses or hit and hope goals. My reply would be what about the other 99 times out of a hundred he has his own team mates shaking their heads going WTF? If he can't find Gerrard who makes some of the best runs I have ever seen he must be ****.
I can see your logic but we dont need him and I would rather invest the money at fullbacks and a future winger.
Absolutely (and in complete agreement with dean) - AJ's "Poor Season" eclipsed Stewart Downing's season prior massively - Where he scored 0 goals and made 0 assists - Tim Howard had more goals than Stewart Downing that season!
Yep! Rather have him at the club that jimmy mac, that's who he would replace, then we could send him out on loan to cover some of downing a wages, simple.
I dont mind Downing and would certainly take him for £5, and if we were still under O'Neil I'd say it was a certainty. I cant however see Di Canio going for him, as mentioned previously he doesnt fit into his style of play.
Give ower lad, he's nowhere near as good as AJ. He's a footballer on a helluva lot of money who is past his best. This is exactly the type of signing that MON or Fatboy would have made in years gone by. No thanks
