Relegation Fight 2014/2015

He'll also offer an alternative to Osman and Pienaar.

Doogie, I am trying to work out if you are being sarcastic or you genuinely think he is an alternative to those two which is not saying much of his ability taking into account their age.

 

[nsno-chris]

Can someone, anyone, say one thing positive about this potential signing please?

His bird is fit as

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Won't cost us a fee, he's a international player with championship winning pedigree and plenty of European experience, as well as being English and of a good age.

He'll also offer an alternative to Osman and Pienaar.

He's also crap mate

 

[AndyC]

At the absolute best, he's a squad player and maybe an upgrade on Gibson... but never in the memory of man would the signing of Tom Cleverley set the pulses racing with excitement and anticipation.

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

United fans hated him to the extend that they trolled him on the net.

There was a petition set up to ban him from the England WC squad

Villa fans think he's complete jarg

An awful player that our manager mystifyingly wants to sign

Yeah, you have great judgment on these things, of course.

Here's you on the possible purchase of McCarthy:

I think the lad is a tidy player, but far from outstanding & certainly not worth the kind of fees being talked about. As a squad player at a sensible fee I'd not object, but as a replacement for a player of the ability of Fellaini? Not a chance, we'd be vastly weaker in that scenario.

Pienaar and Osman missing the majority of our season has been one of the main reasons why we've looked so blunt most of the time. If a young international player with a cv he's got can come in and help replicate what they give us without a transfer fee it's a no brainer as far as I'm concerned.

Did I say he was crap?

No mate, whereas I'm going out on a limb here, Cleverley is absolute garbage

SP and Osman have been a miss , but look to be injured and past it bit part players in a Dads Army squad now!

 

[paulbefc]

I take it Martinez/Cleverley or both have both come out and said the deal's 100% definitely being done then?

Shame, I don't rate him tbh.

Well having a [Poor language removed] load of winners medals in every competition going and being crap got you the Everton captaincy for many seasons so I'm sure he can find a spot for him.

How good is he at finger pointing?

3 points off it now.

Upgrade on Gibson?.......ok
