Robert Pires

[matthew]

Free agent at the moment, says if he doesn't find a new club in the next few weeks he'll retire.

Could be a great signing for us if only as an experienced face in the dressing room. Plus if he shows any of the form he did for Arsenal he'll be unplayable. Could also influence more class players like Vicente to sign for us.

Thoughts? Worth a gamble?

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Are we short of light-weight midfielders ?

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Yep, he's exactly what we need. We deffinitely need to slow the game down a bit more, it certainly hasn't been our biggest problem over the last few games.

Let's completely revamp our midfield, forget Liam Bridcutt, let's have Pires and that quality box-to-box midfielder Dan Gosling in there. That'll solve all our problems.

Maybe sign Matt Wicks to shore up our defence aswell? Mark Walton in goal perhaps?

God I hate International breaks

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Oh for crying out loud....

 

[Richard Hebberd's Syrup]

Robert Pires, that well known midfield enforcer

Are you ill?

I have a chocolate fireguard for sale on Ebay if anyone is interested.

 

[Blue and White Tiger]

Would be the worst possible signing.

 

[Albion Robster]

His legs have well and truly gone...hence why he's on a free transfer, as no club wants to touch him.

 

[Icy Gull]

"Sign me up or I'll retire" players are not what we are looking for these days, I'd rather ask Robbie Savage to make a comeback for us

Could do a job

 

[BensGrandad]

Could do a job

Yes he could but not on the field as a player. He is well past his sell by date and should like to a final pay day in USA, Saudi or similar or Far East

 

[terryberry1]

Pires although was once a great player is no longer capable of doing a job in the top 2 divisions. Would suit someone like Crawley

 

[Biscuit]

Yes he could but not on the field as a player. He is well past his sell by date and should like to a final pay day in USA, Saudi or similar or Far East

Happy Birthday.

 

[BensGrandad]

Firstly, happy birthday BG.

Secondly, I was taking the piss.

 

[Peever]

Hahaha, no. Played for the Villa thanks to Houllier last season and what a waste of about 1.7mil that was. Legs gone, slow as molasses in January. Not even worth the gamble
