Watt-Zeefuik Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Having not seen him play, I assume from his quote that he's a classic holding mid, sitting just in front of a back 4? Good mentor for Cochrane if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good mentor for Cochrane if nothing else. Yeah from the little I know on him - does the dirty stuff, breaks up play and moves the ball in. Almost 100caps for a consistently decent RoI side and over 10 years of EPL/English Championship experience. On a year's deal feels very, very low risk and like a great signing. EEN saying he played 70 games for Villa over last 2 seasons - so a regular, not a bit part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a lot what we need -- we've got the pace, talent, and skill in the side right now, just need to put the pieces together, and a cool head at the back of the midfield could go a long way.

Flappy Hands Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Mixed bag of opinions from the villa fans, Some of them think his legs have gone, he plays suicide passes and misses penaltys.

I wasn’t being wide by the way, I just don’t have enough interest in the English leagues. 👍 Theres a fair few folk saying he was a linchpin in their promotion, certainly over the last 15 games or so.

I’ll be honest with you, and face the flak; I genuinely don’t know a lot about him. I don’t follow Irish internationals and EPL/Championship football closely enough. He seems pretty highly regarded by most though, and that side of it seems to outnumber those who are less enthusiastic. Who knows though. Hope he’s still a really good player, and he signs for us. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 35 years of age though, there's always going to be an element of doubt for me. If he can still do a job in the championship, why is he not in talks with a championship side? I recognise that our league isn't that standard but you've still got to do a lot of running! Joey Barton came here late in his career and look what happened there.
