    That's true but he's behind 3 players in cm.. Should've had more game time when we were safe, but if he did very well he'd o ly have got more offers... If he stays next season he will get games...

    Look at the Hayden thread, that's what our daft fans like to see, a talentless pleb put in a few crunching tackles, rather than someone who can play football

    When one of your cms is shelvey you need someone like hayden... He does all the ugly stuff... Tbh I hate shelvey.. He offers nothing but a long ball.... The problem is in our side we rarely have the ball, so wtf does he do off it? Nothing

    i'd rather have him than pay £6m for rentapleb. He'll get ruined by Bruce but hopefully he'll be here longer than Brucie is so he can be unbruced.

    Every good side needs a muck and nettles man. Better than someone who can play but can't be arsed.

    It is a bit odd that he's not been pictured in Italy or at least strongly linked with a domestic club.

    It could be that other clubs no longer want to pay someone with 10 starts £35,000 a week.

    I agree. The fact is when he ****s up the tackles he’s on the floor and we are down to ten men because he’s on the floor. You could argue That the tackles are a direct result of his lack of reading a game. You rarely see top sides now making crunching tackles because they are in the positions to intercept passes.

    Did he really want £35k, or is that just made up? It's probably made up

    His agent has obviously realised that calling NUFC's bluff didn't work and no-one else wanted someone with less than 10 starts to their name.

    He was offered £20k a week which they then increased to £25k a week.

    For once in my opinion the club weren't being dickish

    He was offered 20k per week apparently. Turned it down.
