Village Idiot Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 No. He still has his knack for getting in goalscoring positions and feeding off scraps, but his legs are gone and can't keep that intensity during a whole match. And due to his kind of game he isn't much of an impact sub. He's 33... To his credit though, he looked finished 4-5 years ago and still produced a couple great seasons.

David28 Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 What chance does McClaren and Wolfsburg stand, david? He seems to do well in the transfer market, money is available. Will also depend on Dzeko (will he stay or go?) But I don't think they'll win the Bundesliga in McClaren's first year - more like competing for the CL spots. Will be hard, though, as Leverkusen, Hamburg and Dortmund will all be looking for European football as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 What chance does McClaren and Wolfsburg stand, david? A lot has got to ride on whether they keep Dzeko though. Potentially have solved their defensive flaws in Friedrich and Kjaer though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Kjaer was a real coup for them, Friedrich, Cicero and Madzukic all very solid signings. I've noticed he does seem astute in the transfer market, and I wonder if it's having a good entourage around him to do scouting and stuff or whether he is actually making these signings of his own accord. His signings for Twente were all very successful aswell. Anyway I hope he does well, any English success abroad is good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could imagine that he works together with manager Dieter Hoeneß (brother or former Bayern manager Uli) to identify and sign the right players. Don't think he does it all on his own as in the Friedrich transfer it seemed like Hoeneß was pulling the strings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenham Mag Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Milner seems one of those people who can't really settle in a place but i suppose a move to Manchester and being close to his family will settle him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate how Hodgson is completely revitalising them, Torres as a complete forward and Huntelaar as a poacher could be devastating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
