    Nelsen captain



    Article suggesting Nelsen will be captain. If so those assuming he is just back up cd be disappointed, making a Samba like signing far less likely. Seems he is to Hughes what Derry and Hill were to Warnock - ie free signings that leave the fans underwhelmed at first but providing the leadership, steel and experience that the manager feels he needs.

    Elsewhere I see comments that Ireland transfer is dependant on what happens to Barton. Makes sense as similar players though Ireland maybe a bit more attack oriented. Further evidence that the club are looking to off-load Barton?

    Nelsen seems to have great leadership qualities (unlike our present captain) but I'd be surprised as it would indicate Hughes plans to make him a first-choice CB. As for Barton, much prefer Ireland but I don't think we're going to have an easy time of getting rid.

      firstly, stainrod thank you for replying to my personal query. i will take note of your advise and desist forthwith from underlying issues.

      On to Nelson, really cant see him as first choice let alone captain so i will hold that artical with contempt.

      if we do not sign a mobile solid defender then i would hazaed a guess that it will be hill and ferdie again next season with nelson as cover.

      onto ireland, with buzz not looking to keen on staying i would say that we need to go after ireland no matter what the outcome of joey b's case.

      central mids would then be...................

      barton

      diakite

      ireland

      derry.

      furlain.

      looks good to me.
      nsa/cia spy on this..............┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐

        What's wrong with him being 1st choice?

        He could be a leader and organiser who can keep Anton Ferdinand on his toes for the whole 90 mins (+ injury time) as well as keeping his full backs focussed. A leader like Tony Adams or going back further, Frank McLintock at QPR.

            I guess I did, but my ref to McLintock was made because he was coming to the end of his career, was not fast, but a leader and organiser.

            McDonald was a great defender who started his career and QPR and spent nearly all of it at the club, apart from a brief ending stint at Swindon.

            I mentioned Adams because for the last few seasons he was mainly kept in the side for his commitment, leadership and organisational skills any pace he had gone seasons earlier.

                You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
