North_Stand_Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Yeah. So average. Only played the majority of of Stoke overall successful spell in the premiership since promotion. I don't think some people understand how big the step up is... Bryson is no where near Whiteheads quality, neither are Hughes or Hendrick (yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_J_DCFC Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I have seen him. He is average. If he was that good, Stoke would of offered him a new contract. Also he can't be as good as you are saying he is as teams who came below us want him. I have watched Ireland recently for obvious reasons and Hendrick comes on for Whelan a lot and out shines him. Whelan got above Whitehead all the time at Stoke. Stoke fans don't rate him at all. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 So naive, and Stoke are a prem team. He'd get in any side in this division. And you've watched him? When? On motd? Brilliant place to judge a player.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nijul_cluff Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 There's nothing wrong with our central midfield players, they're all top class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSheep Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I'd rather wages go towards a center back like kigallon instead of another center midfielder like Whitehead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smyth_18 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I think Hughes is over rated at the moment. No doubt he has potential, but i don't think he is a consistent championship standard player just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant place to judge a player.. Laughable. No not on Match of the day. On Sky Sports, yes you can watch full matches on Sky Sports. Your saying just because he is in a Premiership team, he must be a class above. He certainly looked it when he came in to a under strength team in the League Cup and played at home to Swindon and lost 3-4. You know that top class opposition midfield of Alan McCormack and Tommy Miller. If your telling me Dean Whitehead can be the difference in our promotion push then I give up.

North_Stand_Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Basing a player on one game are we? Keogh, Hughes, Hendrick, Bryson ect ect are all awful players because we lost to Ssausagehorpe? Correct. Your logic pal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_J_DCFC Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Example mate but Okay explain to me why he would be good for us then. What is his attributes? I am looking forward to hearing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 He's not the sort of player I like, but he's one we need. There are lots of games (especially away) where we could have used a player like him either in the starting 11 or coming on to sure things up. Like at Wednesday away, we're 2-0 up, take off a tired Hughes and bring on Whitehead to dictate the end of the game. While Bryson and Hendrick are good workers, Bryson's too lightweight and Hendrick lacks the experience. But, I don't think he'd be cemented in the starting 11, so wouldn't come here. Not to mention Bryson's signed a new contract very recently, I don't think we'll be looking to sign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Over 150 premiership appearances, once commanded a 5 million pound fee, passing ability is brilliant, the old "head" in midfield that many people on the forum want, not to old at 31. Won the league as captain with Sunderland, knows the league well, experienced.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 We won't sign him, no chance, we could do better with the wages, but he'd still improve us, no doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am looking forward to hearing this. he would be a good presence in midfield as he's big and strong, he'd help us with our defensive and offensive play as he is a box to box type of midfielder.

roosram Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I'd rather wages go towards a center back like kigallon instead of another center midfielder like Whitehead. So would I. Is there any rumour at all that DCFC have had any contact with Kilgallon? Seems to fit our needs - left sided CH and can play LB if needed.

Won the league as captain with Sunderland, knows the league well, experienced.. Robbie Savage had way over 150 appearances. He had passing ability and was captain of his team and was an international. It is funny because he is 31, people think he would fit the role perfectly but has been sent off numerous times in his career including costing his Stoke side victory against Reading last year when he hacked a Reading player in the last minute in the box and got sent off and Reading scored the resulting penalty. Sounds exactly what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage only received 2 red cards, and one was on international duty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
