Chris Riggott?


Guest Darth Toon

Recommended Posts

I'd take him over Steven 'im only in the team 'cos i'm a pretend geordie' Taylor.  He was good for Derby when he was younger.  The way our defence has improved over the past few games, it'll be nice to see how he could fit in, given a few sessions with Pearson.  And why wouldn't you take him?  Would you rather have Ramage and Huntungton in the team?  LOL.

I reckon he's a good player, underrated. Was linked with Liverpool last season wasn't he?

 

I think he's better than anyone you have currently got

 

Is the right answer.

I think we should aim a little higher than Riggott, he is an average centre back. I can't help but remember when we played boro a couple of seasons back at the Riverside and a very poor, weak through ball came straight to Riggott which he just had to touch to stop it dead and move possession up field.......... it went straight under his foot as he tried to control it and bellamy ran behind him to score, the word comical springs to mind :lol:

Yeah, cos players who do that once in their career must never be looked at, they must be shot dead immediatly or sold to a non-league club.  Fuck me.  Tell me, Shearer was wank cos he missed a few penalties?  Or Ryan Giggs is wank for missing that open goal in the cup a few yr ago.

you implied that you don't want him cos he let the ball roll under his foot...are you a pillock for thinking that he's an average player? YES.

I can't say I have overly analysed him to be fair but from what i have seen of him i don't think he is much better than what we already have at centre back and there is surely better options. Chelsea rejects yes, Boro rejects?

hmmmm.  He had pontential, jus never really developed it like he should have done (Chopra, anyone?) but still, give him a month or two with wor Roedenator and Pearson, and who knows?  He may not be Fabbio Cannavaro, but for 2 million, your going to get someone who's better than what we currently have.

Nazza it was implied by presentation, ommision, implication or any other f***ing term.

 

Riggott is a protege of McLaren. As MacLaren has left and CR has been recovering from torn ankle ligaments he is, if fully fit, worth buying.

He is young but experienced at PL level.

He is needed as replacement for Moore who is going back to OZ in May/June.

We need cover at CB and although we have Bramble, Taylor, Ramage, Huntington, Moore as CB's 1 is a baby and 1 is away so a replacement NOW is sensible. Moore has missed a few games through injury and we are thin in the middle at CB as well as LB and RB (excepting Nobby).

 

Riggott was also part of a Smoggies team that rarely let in more than 1 and was difficult to break down defensively. If they want to put their faith in Jonathon (my sicknote is tattooed on my hamstring) Woodgate fine. I'd take Riggott at 4 million. English so overpriced.

I'd take him over Steven 'im only in the team 'cos i'm a pretend geordie' Taylor.  He was good for Derby when he was younger.  The way our defence has improved over the past few games, it'll be nice to see how he could fit in, given a few sessions with Pearson.  And why wouldn't you take him?  Would you rather have Ramage and Huntungton in the team?  LOL.

 

Aye Taylor's shit like! Woeful again yesterday  :roll:

If thats the kind of money we are spending on a CH I would hope that we would be getting a lot better in quality that what we have got. Even though I think Riggott is better than our players IMO he wouldn't be that much of an improvement.

If we can afford a good CB (full backs a must) I would much rather go for Robert Kovac or Wes Brown...Robert Kovac should not be too expensive and has great experience...I do believe we could get him for a quite low price...Not the youngest though..
