5'7", can't find, 5'6", 5'9". Drenthe's still winning!

EDIT: Mark Ward is apparently 5'6".

 

[RFUS]

Alan Ball was 5'6" as well.

 

[ToxtethBlue]

I'm with you mate. I'm excited about him.

I just have two worries, really;

1.) Will he stay if he's any good? He'll be on a free and I fear bigger clubs may poach him
2.) Will him and Baines compliment each other? We're already too reliant on our left side and putting Drenthe at LM might just make us even more reliant on it.

Barkley can play on the right, and is very useful there, so I don't think we would be. We'd almost have something similar to Donovan and Pienaar but the opposite way around, with the right sided player cutting inside and the left winger providing the width. In theory, that is, hopefully Drenthe adapts.

It seems wasteful though in a way, because we already have Baines. With Donovan we only had Neville at RB so it wasn't like he was stepping on anyone's toes.

Nonsense,the only good it will do will be for himself not the club

Even if (IFF) he plays so well that he helps us earn a place in the champions league?

 

[Number_25]

Wow. He's even shorter than Adrian Heath.

Isn't he in America at the moment coaching some team? One of the best strikers in the world during the 80s and never really got talked about. Sad really.

Champions League Qualification will not happen this season, I think Moyes wants Europa League so we can bring in a few more players with experience from abroad. Much cheaper than bringing them in from UK.

Hyper-hypothetical situation I was talking about there... I enjoy the unexpected, just wish it paid off more often (at all). Incredibly excited about Drenthe. :blink:

Yeah, but 5ft 8 with the dreds :hay:

I've always wondered about Fellaini's height. I read 6'4.5" everywhere but does that include his afro or not?

 

[ToxtethBlue]

He was billed at that height before he grew the hair. Massive, basically.

Haha. I'd say he's about 8'4" now.

 

[Brownie]

Fellaini's little smirk he does always cheers me up.
