[Matt C]

So who you dropping out of Modric, VDV and Sandro to accomdate "all action" Parker seeing that VDV is NO right midfielder....?

New Striker,
VDV,
Bale, Sandro, Modric, Lennon.

In certain physical games Bale would be dropped and Modric would go to the left and Rose would play LB for more steel

LM - Modric
CM - Parker
DM - Sandro
RM - Lennon
AM - VDV

Bale will likely miss a good number of games injured next season as will VDV, there will be plenty of chance for them all to play

 

[brett.spurs]

Has Higuain being pimped out been mentioned yet by the way?

 

[Paolo10]

I can think of several reasons to buy Parker

1) Added steel in midfield
2) CL experience
3) Vocal
4) A leader
5) Less chance of us being muscled out by Blackburn/Wolves/Bolton/Stoke in midfield
6) Better than Palacios, Hudd, Jenas, O Hara

Bang on.

dont disagree with some of that but we did beat blackburn/wolves/bolton/stoke 6 out of 8 without what parker brings so really its all about can he help us beat the bottom 4 because thats our big problem

 

[DoublePivot]

Harry will surely rotate a lot more - the league will be the focus, the three cups will be for young players, those who need game time, and those with nothing better to do.

Really? Old dog, new tricks saying comes to mind

 

[Berglad]

VdV has said that Higuain was his best friend at Real Madrid.

I like how your ignoring the fact Parker spends far more time on the injury table than them 2.....:grin:

I've got a mate that works on the coaching staff at Aston Villa and he told me that Friedel has to get up three times in the night just to take a piss.

It's referred to as OAB and is frequent with OAP. If Levy doesn't temper Harry, it will be a chronic condition at our club

We did earlier on in the day.....

 

[faze_coys]

the parker hype in this thread is ridiculous,

he isnt that good.

Pimped out?

 

[hoodlum]

It doesn't matter what we think. Harry seems to like him and we have to live with his likes/dislikes regardless of how we feel. Grab a pint or two and have as much fun as you can

 

[brett.spurs]

APPARENTLY Florentino Perez wants rid of him to make room for Aguero - for some reason he's never liked Higuain. Anyway it's said they'd take as little as €15m and they've let just about every club around Europe know this.

 

[Shep]

If we had sense we'd bid. Probably get outgunned but no guts no glory.

 

[DoublePivot]

Maybe in 10 years. But for now, he's not our kind of target

 

[faze_coys]

15m is a bargin for higuain.

 

[brett.spurs]

The €15m is more of a publicity stunt if anything, it would just start a bidding war and he'd end up going for his real value - if it's even true ofcourse.
