Tom Huddlestone

[Meade's Ball]

that will be Sidwell, next year!.

I wonder who in the top flight has previously and evilly hurt a current or former teammate of Sidders. They'll be getting an elbow to the back of the bonce with the ref facing t'other way.
I hope he has a list.

Costa says Chelsea don't want him - a spare £80million to buy him and then 5 years at £350K a week should do it.

Sounds like he'll be going to Newcastle then.

A less mobile Norwood. I'm hoping we can do better and try to stay in the division.

Less mobile maybe, but a far better player. That's a bit like comparing Ji-Sung Park to Pirlo.

That would either have to mean Norwood is very bad or Huddlestone very good, neither of which sit well with me.

Not quite sure who he would replace, but a very good footballer - if CH can work out how to use him, would be a good punt for £2M. 4-5-1 next season, anyone?

Does he need to replace anyone? The Premier League is tough and unforgiving.. Everyone in the squad will get their chance to shine.

I suspect, for us, it's:

Mooy >>>> Huddlestone

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Wages would be my worry. Useful squad player otherwise but a few things don't quite 'click' with this for me

Do you really think Tom Huddlestone would sign for us simply to be a 'squad' player?

No of course he wouldn't.

Tom Huddlestone ffs!....I thought the idea was to add pace to the squad.....he creeps around the pitch!

He played in the Premier league so he must be good

Hopefully there's noting in this one

If we are going for a midfield 3 then I think he would be a decent addition. Kayal and Stephens can do enough running for three players while he sits back and dictates play. Saying that, I haven't seen him play recently so am unsure if he still has what it takes at Prem level
