AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I'm not a massive fan of loaning players from other Premiership clubs, but if Cleverly has something about him and he helps us stay up then he's worth a go. Might be a short loan deal until Gosling is fit I suppose. Or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Been away so forgive my lack of knowledge but where have these Ben Arfa rumours came from?!? Load of tosh? Don't know, and almost certainly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBG Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Newcastle United in line to tie up Tom Cleverley deal http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2010/07/23/newcastle-united-in-line-to-tie-up-tom-cleverley-deal-61634-26913450/? Intersting I don't know if Gosling's signing will affect this. It's hard to imagine us playing two such young players together in the midfield in the Premiership, and there'd be no point in Man U loaning Cleverley out if he wasn't going to get regular first team experience. Still, if there's one player I'd like to see come here, it's Cleverley. More likely though with Gosling out for the first few months. Midfield needs as much stregnthening as it can get.

Guest BooBoo Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Cleverley scored a belting goal for Man Utd the other day. He certainly looks like he has something about him, despite me having a downer on loans in general. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Dont see how Gosling will affect Cleverley given that he is out for the first 20 games or so at least. Plus Cleverley will be a bit further up the field(or on the wing) than Gosling would normally play wouldnt he? It's certainly in our interests to sign Cleverley, for those kinds of reasons. But Gosling isn't out for the season, and so I wonder whether Cleverley and Man U may now have better options ie somewhere he's needed more. Natural pessimist me, though.

Know what you are saying but with injuries like Goslings there will be a easing in period too so Cleverley should get nigh on 3/4 of the season ahead of him. Plus they are different players and Cleverley will offer a lot more in attacking situations from what i have seen which is what we need more. I can see Cleverley getting well over 30 appearances which is exactly what Fergie will want for him. Dont see any problem with this idea as its win-win for everyone.

QBG Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Agreed, Gosling is box to box, Cleverly is far more attacking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I hope this Cleverly deal goes ahead - a good young player who will boost the attacking options of the midfield. We will have done well if we get him because Man U also have less cash this year than is the general rule, so in view of Fergie's high opinion of him, it would seem he might be doing us a favour. We'll see.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Cleverley would be good as he can play across the midfield, and I think he will be a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Cleverley is just what we need in midfield. Will cover for Gosling nicely as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Cleverley is just what we need in midfield. Will cover for Gosling nicely as well. I think that's his thinking, a good stand-in for gosling whilst he recovers. Gotta get another 2-3 players in at least though, in my opinion..
