I look at it another way; sure we can but out a more defensive side in big games if we feel the need but if he's more mobile & quicker than what we've got then it enables us to either play one less def midfielder in some games or to let the forwards concentrate more & use their energy on attacking & not have to work so hard tracking back.

Also it helps balance out our dwarf/weakling problem so perhaps we'll stop letting in a headed goal or flick on from a header EVERY FUCKING GAME. It's been doing my head in for years.

Is he a defensive mid or more of a BOX-TO-BOX? Remember that 50-50 ;-)

Bresciano, the great example of a player coming to coms to sign but not signing in the end.

Just shows it ain't done, til it's done.

That reminds me - at the time, there was an argument as to whether or not he was a holding mid and someone seriously used the fact that he had a shaven/bald head to help their argument that he definitely was a defensive midfielder.

I love this place.

Hahaha! I remember that! Perhaps it explains Irelands lack of form. He isn't a creative midfielder at all!

I hear he was left footed as well. Clearly a holding midfielder.

Sky Italia reported yesterday, as written in the other thread about him, that the deal was basically done and only things like the medical and the work permit needed to be completed.
