Shearergol 0 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 We'd be fools not to try for him on loan. I think he'd still go to Liverpool though, for CL football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckypierre 0 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 (edited) story in the Sun this morning is that although Real are prepared to pay some of Woodgates wages (says a large slice of 70K) Shepherd only wants Woodgate on a pay as you play deal. Woodgate on loan for say less than 35K a week would be a great deal imo. Edited August 25, 2006 by luckypierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggiespaws 0 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Woody back on loan would be good. We don't have a real talker in our defence and woody always did that from day one. Every man in our defence grew an inch when he was on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44093 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Liverpool are welcome to him and his wages tbh. He won't play 15 games for them all season. Waste of time, space and medication. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo 24 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Big gamble even on loan...! You'd like to think his luck would change at some point in his career. It would be great if it did with us, but I'm really not too sure on whether it's going to be worth the risk in wages.... .............AMEOBI.....MARTINS ZOGGY GRAVESEN....PARKER....

Geordie Boyo 24 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I knew someone would say that...! Swap him for Butt then! Christ! Can't please all...! I've just bought Woodgate, Gravesen, Nugent & Bridge ffs...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adios 717 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 With his record, only if we are also buying another CB, a season of Taylor & Bramble scares the shit out of me. Even that's probably letting my heart rule my head, but the notion of a fit Woody at the centre of our defence is worth a big gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30160 Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 £35k pw would be a good deal. However I have my doubts whether Real would even let us have him on loan given his and our clubs injury record and the way we dealt with him before. The last thing they want is their player getting crocked and out for another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather we bought another centre back instead of a Centre Mid 185058[/snapback] We only have Emre, Butt & Parker in central midfield. Zoggy might be able to play there, but he's a lot more effective on the wing so there’s not real reason for him to be there. I'm not going to include Dyer for the same reason that he's lot more effective in a free role behind the front two or even on the right-wing, but never as a central midfielder. I do like Emre, he grafts well and creates in attack, but I just feel Gravesen can offer more as a central midfielder with his composer and strength on the ball especially for when we come up against tougher opposition. I would rather we bought another centre-back instead as it's more of a priority, but again I'd say the same towards bringing in another striker too.
