Dokko Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 A merger? So they could take two averagely shit teams to form one massive shit team? Remind me of the score the last time Northern Ireland played England. And it's got nothing to do with how good we are, we have a population of 1.5m ffs we know we're not world beaters, we just love our country. That's why 15,000 people at Windsor Park make more noise than 90,000 of you lot at Wembley. Just not enough to play for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Reminds me of a young James Milner. Brave and technically sound. With pace to burn! What's so Dowie about that? When Milner burst onto the scene, he showed that he possessed good technique, and wasn't afraid to get stuck in! I see Ferguson with similar traits only with more pace than Milner had/has.

JH Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I think he's more 'Dowied' about the suggestion that Milner may have had pace to burn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I think he's more 'Dowied' about the suggestion that Milner may have had pace to burn. Yup. Now that I've read my original post again, I can see why it would insinuate that. Just meant he's like Milner, but nimbler than Milner Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Won't pretend I'm an expert on him, but I can imagine he has the potential to be an excellent full back and only a good outright winger. Fwiw, I'm tempted to say full backs are a more important part of a good team, so it's not a demotion in my mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Snrub Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Nigel Worthington confirmed he's been trying to get him to play for NI, but Ferguson has been ignoring his calls. If he does indeed decide to a be a turncoat prick and change his nation to the Republic, I'll never be able to enjoy watching him play for NUFC.
