Fine young player. Just not quite good enough at the end of the day, I guess.
His only hope would have been as a left back. It was clear he'd never make it at United as a winger.Pity, was hoping he'd make it here.
I wouldn't say it was clear mate, he's always impressed me in the reserves, was playing with lads a good year older then him at times, which makes a difference at that level, he's technically astute, works pretty hard, and is decent overall, is by no means a finished article.His only hope would have been as a left back.

It seems pretty clear that he won't make it here, since we're selling him.I wouldn't say it was clear mate, he's always impressed me in the reserves, was playing with lads a good year older then him at times, which makes a difference at that level, he's technically astute, works pretty hard, and is decent overall, is by no means a finished article.
To be fair, I'm very biased as I want another Irishman at Old Trafford.
I think that's probably the crux of the issue Jake lad.I wouldn't say it was clear mate, he's always impressed me in the reserves, was playing with lads a good year older then him at times, which makes a difference at that level, he's technically astute, works pretty hard, and is decent overall, is by no means a finished article.

No I don't think so! Atleast the sun has page three. You don't see any of the ladies on sky sports news get theirs out.When they say Sky Sources understand with respect to unheralded players they're pretty accurate.
Yeah, they may not get everything right but cmon they are like 57474745747 times better than the Sun.
That would be soNo I don't think so! Atleast the sun has page three. You don't see any of the ladies on sky sports news get theirs out.

Natalie Sawyer was a soccerette back in the day though, so it's not all bad.No I don't think so! Atleast the sun has page three. You don't see any of the ladies on sky sports news get theirs out.
glad thats cleared up then.....Never thought he was good enough. As cover for Evra at left-back he may have had a few chances, but once we signed Buttner that route into the first team squad was shut down. He'll be a decent premier league player at some point, somewhere. Nothing more.
What's your point?glad thats cleared up then.....
If he is up to it, why are we getting rid?Making wide reaching statements about where young footballers will end up is pointless. You've no clue as to where he'll end up or what he'll achieve.
Fair enough if he wasnt up to it but thats hardly the case here...
Calm the feck down.If he is up to it, why are we getting rid?
He's not good enough for United, that much is clear. I've said he'll probably play in the Premier League, i'm hardly ruling him out. He'll never play for a top 4 club after he leaves United, though, because he's a level below that standard.
Oh, you're Irish, aren't you? Figures.
I'm perfectly calm. What the feck are you talking about?Calm the feck down.
He'll play for Ireland every game as long as he plays regularly for a club. Got to be in his thoughts.He could well have asked to leave I suppose...it has happened before.
You're not exactly someone Ive seen ever comment on him in the reserves forum. I think I'll trust the opinions of the likes of Mujac who attend games etc.If he is up to it, why are we getting rid?

Exactly. He is playing first team football for a very useful Hull side chasing automatic promotion. He is a first teamer every week and is performing well if you read the Hull forums. Trapp has told him, and been public, that he has to be playing football for him to figure for his country.He'll play for Ireland every game as long as he plays regularly for a club. Got to be in his thoughts.
So because I don't comment means I don't watch? I don't think i've ever commented on Vidic in his thread either, but i've seen him play a few times.You're not exactly someone Ive seen ever comment on him in the reserves forum. I think I'll trust the opinions of the likes of Mujac who attend games etc.
The fact that hes broken into the National side under Trap say a lot for him.
Sir Alex didn't see it in Scholes at one point. Don't think Gary Neville had the confidence of all the coaches...but aside from that being irish has nothing to do with it. It's just a wonderful bonus....If he is up to it, why are we getting rid?

Was his debut for Ireland not against Oman or someone, were they even full time professionals? I would be very surprised if he became as good as Pinear, he is an excellent player.he'll defo be a midtable premier league player and one of the better ones. On his debut for the Irish senior team he was one of the better players so I think he will be a player along the lines of a more skillfu pienar at Everton that is never afraid to defend too or maybe a more skillful version of McClean at sunderland.
you might be right or it could give him the kick start he needs to get his career moving.If he is up to it, why are we getting rid?
