Sheff Utd interested in re-signing Freeman, Poised to be announced according to Sheffield Star

[May Contain Nuts]

He is (/was) a mid-table Championship player who served us well when we were a mid-table Championship team - in or out of position.

 

Defensively he was just as good as Brayford when he was played at RB.

 

If you think he was awful for us then I'm afraid you're talking *****.

[MACKWORTHRAM]

Its a game of opinions pal.

Im sure there are players past and present that you dont rate other fans would, likewise other people might rate players you don't.

When im in the pub before the match theres plenty of discussions about players and lots of disagreement.

I never rated Paul Green. I thought and still do think hes a terrible footballer.

Thats my opinion.

In your opinion you think he was just as good as Brayford defensively. I believe that you are talking ***** there.

But thats your opinion, im sure there will be people out there that agree with you and people that disagree with you.

Madness.

 

He wasn't awful for us, far from it. He was just a limited player that, as you said, served us when we were mid-table. However, you could argue that a player of his calibre in the middle of the park is a large reason we've been stagnant in this division for so long.

Every time I see someone suggest playing Keogh at RB, I find myself either crying in a corner or smashing my laptop into the wall.

Sorry.

 

It's just that those 'he's terrible' ' he's awful' non-constructive criticisms always manage to wind me up.

It's the writing off 4 years of solid contribution with 'he was *****' or similar.

So I thought I'd go for it and be similarly unconstructive by smply saying "you're talking *****"

I'd agree with that.

 

He was an important player who didn't let us down and did the job that was asked of him.

In his first season here he got 8 goals, which suggests that he wasn't a poor footballer, but they dried up under Clough as his role in the team changed.

 

The only thing people ever seem to bring up about him at RB is the game against Leicester, but we've had better right backs (overall) than Green undone by them gits.

And yes I still maintain that defensively, there really wasn't much between PG and JB.

This I hate the idea of him playing at RB just an awful idea imo

Have you seen him play right back

[CumbrianRam]

Green wasn't an awful player, neither was he great. Just bang average.

 

His level was mid-table Championship and his demise saw Will Hughes come in, night and day difference between the quality of those two.

[Leicester Ram]

Have you seen him play right back

 

Yes, for Ireland and we've all watched him play for two years now, most people don't need to. I saw him try to put in a cross against Watford and it was laughable, he's simply just not technically adept enough to play RB. Anyone who thinks we should play him there is just trying to accommodate him, because they wan't a new CB but don;t want to get rid of Keogh.

 

Don't let that get in the way of the decision, you either want him in the team or you don't.

My thoughts exactly. No further questions your Honour

[Gary Teale]

Back to freeman not good enough. I don't know why people are worrying we will bring a right back in. I'm surprised freeman has gone to sheff utd as he spent a lot of time on the bench there as well.

But he hasn't gone yet ????

[Ambitious]

I'd have liked Freeman to stick around as a back up player, but ultimately Sheffield United is a good start for him.

 

I put him in the same bracket as Jacobs, a promising player that perhaps needs the move to improve.

I would have Jacobs back right now though... I think Freeman might take longer to mature into a good RB.

[Ovis aries]

Clough must rate Kieron, because they do not get on.

[maydrakin]

For me, Freeman will not hit the levels that James O'Connor has.

Not saying I'd prefer O'Connor now, but I doubt Freeman will make as many appearances in the 2nd division as O'Connor.
