Tom Cleverley

[Moomin]

We do need more Americans.

He doesn't need guns, his fists are his weapon of choice.

 

[sageyefc]

Is he passing him a spliff there

 

[Eric Djemba-Djemba]

Heard that he wants to take over Osman's position as club grass.

???

course

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Have you watched him play there? He's awful.

His sense of positions is shocking, he goes walkabouts leaving his partner getting overran, he can't tackle either.

Verdict- [Poor language removed]

Nonsense

He's perfectly serviceable in the middle

He's fine for back up purposes, which is what he's here to be

It's good to have someone experienced to call upon if there's injuries or suspensions

I wouldn't have him starting every week, but he's fine. He's adequate. He does a job. He didn't cost much and he is not deserving of the stick he gets

Has he got himself in trouble with the law like Gibson and Niasse? No

Has he stood in the way of better younger players like Alcaraz? No

Has he cost us countless points and then whined to the media over justified critiscm like Howard? No

He's a bog standard 6-7 out of 10 player who gets his head down, does what he's told, doesn't take much of a wage and fills in when he has to

If that sort of player is worthy of being called "Snivelly", then no player has a chance

 

[Hellerad]

He doesn't need guns, his fists are his weapon of choice.

Which is why he'd do well in England.

 

[darkwingduck]

He's a nothing player tbh. We could do so much better than him in midfield.

We don't need adequate Michael, we've had adequate for two decades and it's gotten us nowhere

Oh so that makes it okay to call him names and be a rar whiny lil bish does it mate?

Good to know

People miss the point spectacularly about 'squad players'

To improve, you bring in players better than your first XI now, the player they dislodge in the first XI becomes the squad player and the original squad player gets sold.

that is how it is supposed to work.

[sageyefc]

that is how it is supposed to work.

A squad player is there to fill in for a first teamer if they go down with an injury/suspension. They don't have to be better than the first team player

In an ideal universe, the ultimate goal is for a younger player, ideally from your own youth set up, to replace the first teamer, at which point the first teamer becomes the squad player and the squad player gets moved on
