Lucas Neil

[bluebastardo]

The only thing that may stop Neill walking straight into the team is match fitness. There's no way he's signed on to be a fringe player with the WC just around the corner.

He'd better start sending letters with kisses to the Aussie selectors then, because the Hibster isn't going anywhere.

I mentioned after the Fulham game that we've lost a bit of bite. Fulham out-bullied us. That used to make us angry and we gave as good as we got, now....I dunno, not so much anymore.

I dont know how reliable those records are, but it appears he's a player that picks up yellows on a regular basis - 50 in his top flight career and 5 red cards. The suspensions dont worry me - dismissals during games do. As long as he's disciplined enough to keep a lid on it (and only 1 red in the last 3 seasons suggests he's learning to do that) he'll be the type of player we're missing.

I don't know what Hibbert's future is I'm just saying that Neill will be a regular in the first 11, certainly once he's match fit. Trust me. I think I know things. b)

Err No Lid I don't:huh:

 

[NeoNaoNeo]

He can't? Why?

Because we've already submitted our 25 man squad for the group stage haven't we?

 

[Feetfirst]

He can't? Why?

I don't think he can in this group stage because the names of the players have already been lodged but if we make it to the next phase I think he can.

Sorry - you had to be there Friday.

As long as he Alex Witsel's Stevie GBH, I'll be happy.

How anyone could possibly think it isn't a good idea to sign him is beyond me. He's probably the best free agent available at the moment. What if Hibbert got injured? What if Gosling got injured? What if Heitinga got injured? Just because we've been very unlucky with injuries lately doesn't mean no one else is going to come a cropper as well. It is ALWAYS a positive thing to have good players available to cover.

Clearly.

If he gets chio's seal of approval, he is good enough for me

I sometimes read things on here and start thinking that I must be weird as I don't get it but then I realise that the interwebworld is full of weirdoes who just post weird stuff that they keep to themselves in real life in case they get ridiculed and beat up.
