Not everyone would be pleased at that, but I see him as an unfulfilled talent who perhaps just needs a coach who can get through to him.

I'd take him on a 6 month loan deal, but no more then that.

Adebayor would be a better option though.

[ElDiablo]

Been shit for ages. Dunno where he'd improve us.

 

He's better than Routledge, gives us a decent option off the bench and it's cover for the wing. Would be pleased as long as it's just a loan. Rather him than Woodgate anyhow.

I'm really not sure about that. And if he's just going to be on bench duty I can't see him making an impression of any note. If he's gonna get anywhere near to the level he was at a few years ago he needs games.

[Guest Heneage]

Purely a loan signing.

[BeloEmre]

No way that we are going to pay his £70,000 a week.

[Guest kingdawson]

Woodgate clearly has fitness problems. If he was still any good, he'd be in the first team at Spurs.

 

 

But he is first team? he'd probably be starting if fit.

 

Which is kind of my point. Centre back isn't your strongest area IMO, so if you're prepared to loan him out, there's a problem.

 

Yes the problem is his fitness.

But he's not fit, in fact Sol Campbell is currently light years ahead of him in the fitness stakes, which is criminal.

 

Would be a good signing for Blackpool, where half fit he's better than any of their defenders, and by the end of the season he might get to a level of fitness to where he's can be a 1st teamer but IHMO he'll get injured way before that happens.

 

It would be a dreadful signing.

 

Fair enough. Besides this injury he's been pretty much injury free since signing with us (altough this is a pretty long lay off tbf). In terms of his performances for us before getting injured, he was excellent but i can see why you wouldn't want to risk it tbh.

[Cajun]

So he wouldn't be an excellent loan signing

[Guest kingdawson]

 

If he proves his fitness he would be is what i'm getting at.

[Cronky]

Redknapp doesn't seem to have much faith in that happening.

[wormy]

That's the thing, seems like Harry's giving up tbh. Figures sending him on loan gives a chance of someone else maybe being able to sort him through methods they've not thought of, or even just getting a bit of cash out of him by maybe saving wages, or a little loan fee.

[Mick]

I'm really not sure about that. And if he's just going to be on bench duty I can't see him making an impression of any note. If he's gonna get anywhere near to the level he was at a few years ago he needs games.

 

I agree with that, if we're going to play a winger I'd rather it was Routledge who seems to have everything but confidence.

[ElDiablo]

And just struggle on with him and Jonas as the only two wingers?

[Mick]

And just struggle on with him and Jonas as the only two wingers?

 

We're not struggling and I'd rather our own players got games than a player who could come here and go back to his club fitter and more confident.  We brought players in last season and they were given games at the expense of players who are still here and less experienced for missing those games.

[jdckelly]

if we were going for a winger i'd rather it was a left sided one to provide competition/cover for jonas, while barton ain't a winger his performances on the right have me assured we're ok there

[ponsaelius]

SWP

 

NO TO SWP

 

[wormy]

That strikethrough just doesn't have the same effect with such big ass font

[ponsaelius]

And I don't mean the Socialist Workers' Party.

It would be a brilliant signing if he was fully fit, because he's the best CB I've seen play for us in my lifetime. But he's not fit, and he's ridiculously injury prone, so it would be completely and utterly pointless.

[Super Duper Branko Strupar]

That joke in the Royle Family tonight was great. Mary at a fancy dress party with people thinking she was Desmond Tutu when she went as SWP. Fucking brilliant!

[madras]

NO TO SWP

 

this could see neesy and stu in a meltdown.

I was kind of hoping to have that effect 

[Ameritoon]

Good, because Comrade Chris would not be happy.

[Guest]

SWP is similar to Keane in that on a 6 month loan deal would be perfect for us imo, much much better than Routledge.

[taxfree]

Fuck off to SWP, Keane and Woodgate.

 

SWP - not the qualities we need, costly (salary)

Keane - costly, been shit for a good while

Woodgate - Are people seriously interested in this player?? He is a walking injury ffs.
