The He Could Do A Job For Us Thread

Yeah but....are we really saying we'd turn down an ex Barca and Chelsea midfielder to bolster our frankly barren engine room?

Gibson and Barkley to be honest. I think we've just been badly unlucky that Gibson has been injured and the first team chance has come 6 to 12 months too early for Barkley, but I don't think we need anyone desperately until next season.

We've brought in Hitzlsperger anyway.

It is telling though that despite how sparse we are in the middle, I still don't miss Rodwell in the slightest.

Would i be wrong in thinking Hitzelsperger is only untill January? If we edge Neville out of the first team in the next 3 or so months, We have Osman, Fellaini, Gibson, Junior? for the middle two? Id personally like to see Barkley off the striker. Id say a quality player in the middle would add real depth to the squad.
 
What about Charlie Adam? Originally I thought we'd dodged a bullet and we still probably have. But apparently he's been playing well for Stoke and if you can play well in Stoke's midfield you must be doing something right. With Gibson being out injured we've got no one who is willing to shoot from outside the box. Spose this has been resolved with Hitzelburger coming in but he can't be fit yet with Moyes unwillingness to give him some minutes.
 

Where does he play? Only know him by name and media stories.

He can play wide right, as a central striker or part of a front three mate. Pace to burn, great technique, skill to burn (did a Zidane-esque turn in the first hand and took three out of the game), always wants the ball, excellent finisher, reader of a game - but what really impressed me yesterday was his footballing intelligence, decision making and vision, won the game for Palace and i cansee why they are doing so well with him in the team. Best player i have seen at that level in a while. I watched the 90 mins of Arse VS Fulham after and in comparrison he made Walcott look like he was a kid learning the game. If Wenger had sense he sell Walcott and get this kid.

Best player ive seen in the Championship for a long time. No doubt hes on his way to City, Utd, Chelsea or Arsenal.

Sounds like an Arsenal type player, or UTD? Not suited to city play or Chelsea.

Could well be with OX - Chamb and Zaha, Arsenal would be a very different proposition - id bin Walcott for this lad. He could do well at Utd with Cameos behind Young and Valencia for a while. City seem short in creativity to me and the likes of Sinclair havnt really helped - but they will likely go big ticket player. Hard to see where he would fit into Chelsea - but then that never stopped them. Moses has done well there when given a chance and he looks better then him, i watched him a bit for Palace when he was there.
 
Roger Espinoza is a honduran player in the MLS who I watched in the olympics and really liked the look of. He's a defensive midfielder in the manner of Gibson and a proper comabtive energetic player with a bit of quality.

Wigan want him and he's said he wants to play in England so it should be possible.
