Neill coming in Jan

[El Jefecito]

Surely a contender for most stomach churningly homosexual thread title ever.

It will be interesting to see if he will play instead of Hyypia. I'm not that sure that Rafa only will sign him to cover on the right.

[captainfog]

I really think we can do better than Neil, I hope this report is not true. I don't think we are desperately short of options at the back and given the choice I reckon it would be better to hang on untill there is a bit more cash to spend.

[Morph]

I'm going to predict right now that he'll get sent off twice by the end of the season if he joins.

[enema of the state]

He'll be a great buy.

He's the type of player who you you think is going to take your leg off. Can't wait to see him have a rip at Ronaldo!

he couldnt get near ronaldo

strictly a squad player there to do a job in league games and allow rest for first 11 players

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

He'll be a decent signing.

One plus is that he's a hard dirty crim. And we do need more hard men in our squad, too many lightweight softies. The likes of Neill are ideal for away trips to ****ty midtable sides and Bolton, who hoof it and get physical to beat you.

Whether he's really good enough is another question. Probably not. But as a bridge until the summer when we can get somebody better in, we could certainly do a lot worse.

[Growler]

not cup tied either. players in UEFA vase are not cup tied in big cup.

I'm all for the signing of Neill, he's a very good player imo, demonstrated by his performances at the World Cup.

He's strong, good in the tackle, can pass the ball, is a fierce competitor and is versatile, can fill in right across the defence.

Well said, he'll be a great signing for us.

Easily. I don't know why everyone is excited by this signing. I still remember people telling me why Julian Dicks was a good signing for us at the time. Can we really not do better than this?

Because he is a good player, who is very versatile, and provides us with different options.

Can't see that happening at all tbh

Like Momo he will pick up loads of bookings, but I don't think he is that much more in danger of being given a straight red than other players at the club.

Gosh, how familiar does that sound? Another mediocre player who is an inadequate stop-gap.
How often will he get to play across the rest of defence? We have better players for the job in those positions, surely? We have to be looking for better than Lucas Neill if we are going to get to where we want to be.
And he is a dirty fecker to boot - more trouble than he is worth.
