Coz he's proper captain fantastic material and the 'wall have been some of the tightest bast**ds we've played (3rd best defensive record last season). I like Gorkss calmness but Robinson would give us some old-fashioned aggression and leadership. Edited 25 August, 2011 by shurlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 Thought he was younger than that. Oh well. In saying that about his age and previous experience etc, rememember that Matt Elliott only got into top division football late in his career (although possibly a bit younger than 29) when he joined Leicester.At the time I questioned if he would be agood signing as Souness was chasing him.Just goes to show that we can not write off a player due to age etc if they don't fit in with the blueprint.

I like Gorkss calmness but Robinson would give us some old-fashioned aggression and leadership. OK I'm convinced,lets sign him. Wouldn't be hugely impressed with that but it does seem there are few decent centre backs around. I can't think of many potential targets and Gorkks/Fontaine weren't getting people that excited. I'm struggling to think of too many matching our criteria, and would not be surprised if we pulled one out of Europe that none of us have heard of.* *what is Zoltan Liptak up to these days ?

SuperMikey Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 I think Paul is a one-club man, been at Millwall all his professional career and can't see him leaving any time soon. He would be a good signing though, maybe not Prem level but certainly very handy in this division. A stop-gap really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junction 9 Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 Nigel clearly thinks Bart isn't a good enough back up then, I feel for the lad. Kalvin may also lose his place if this deal comes off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jawillwill Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 Can't believe people don't think he's good enough. He's a former England international with plenty of top flight experience.
