Good value - still need another in midfield - preferably hourihane.

100% agree. Doesn't seem to be on our radar.. lots of links but not him. Just one article briefly mentioning him. If he's available it's a big mistake not getting him.

I always thought he was a little shit, but it's about time we signed a player that gets people's backs up.

We could have got Joey Barton for free who dose a pretty good job at doing that! ;)

Hope we sign him. Can't imagine one of our current midfield options getting a hat-trick!

 

Hourihane with a lovely assist in there as well

Surely Westwood is fir sale now? We can't sign Lansbury and one other without having any cm going surely?

hopefully it's not Tish as I would rather have him than both of gardwood

Given how absurdly light we are in midfield (thanks RDM) I imagine Bruce will want to hang onto him this season just for the sake of having an extra body. 

He can **** off forever in the summer though, of course.

No not really. Gardner has a history of injury problems and it appears that Jedinak can't hack playing 2 games  a week. We need squad depth.

We've already got Westwood! Oh I see what you mean ;)

:lol: Yeah, opposition fans. A lot of players are disliked because they possess something effective - show up with goals and assists at crucial stages (Lansbury against us), get an important player send off (Shelvey) or even act as a distraction to the opposition with their character and appearance (The passionate celebrations and hairstyle). They're the sort of intangible qualities we've really lacked through the side.

I hope we pair him up with someone who has a real engine and passing ability, we might finally have balanced options in the side!

From what I've heard he's a bit of a Match of the Day player. But I haven't seen that much of him.

From what I have seen he'll be an upgrade to our midfield. And at 3.5 million it's basically a no brainer.

If he appears on Match of the Day for us, I would say the signing has worked out!

Haha true!

To clarify, I meant he looks better on a highlight reel than he actually is.

A traffic cone would change our current midfield dynamic.

I don't think I've ever seen a more accurate description of our longstanding midfield malaise than this. 

here's hoping Henri isint the only new recruit in midfield come Feb 1.

Just watching this video and seeing him busting a gut to get himself in the box shows how poor our midfield is.

A goalscoring midfielder is what we have been crying out for for years!
