Mate (Spurs fan) called who watch Celtic game and said this guy was covered every blade of grass tonight. Huge perfomance apparently.

Yes, I heard he had an absolute stormer.I have been impressed the few times I have seen him. Definalty too good for SPL.

A defensive midfielder who can also play CB?
If he's half decent why on earth not, especially if he'd come cheap? It's better than shifting Carrick there all the time and perhaps the lad can actually stick a foot in,not just stare down opponents as they're approaching our box.

Fuck it. Get him. If he plays in the centre of midfield and can tackle and have defensive stormers against Barcelona, he's a better bet than any of our current lot.
Except Tunnicliffe, but he doesn't get to play.

Totally. Plus, he's 21, get him in.

And he's only 21 so can only get better. I tracked down some fairly extensive highlights from the game and honestly, this guy has the potential to be better than Tiote I think and at probably half the price. He was monstrous last night. And he's built like a bleeding truck!

I said before, he's pretty much the ideal type of player we need in the middle, he's strong, built like a brick shithouse, gets stuck in, can pass and certainly make a tackle. Would give us more protection and presence in the middle.

Is this from one single game, or are we talking about a guy whom some here have been watching for a reasonably amount of time?

I watched a few since his name first started cropping up and i genuinely thought that this guy had some good ability.
Dismissed it as others who were waching SPL more regularly said that wasn't the case.
IMHO he's good

So he's big and he works hard?
Must be good enough then.

Now that he's turned it on against Barcelona, different matter.not sure that alone sells it for me. but i havent seen him play so can't really comment. generally i wouldn't get excited about a player coming from the SPL but if they are good enough then so be it |

Needs to play in a better league before he makes a big move.
I think he's good but don't think just being 'good' is good enough for united.
