Why does everyone want Foster? I wouldn't say he's a shit keeper, but he's definitely not a good one. He's about the same level as Rob Green and Scott Carson. Makes three great saves for the cameras, then flaps at a cross like a girl and indirectly contributes to his team conceding. How many of SHA's goals against was he at fault for last season? My guess is a fair few.

I'd rather have Shay Given, even with a dodgy shoulder.

Hutton is definitely a good option. I'd be happy with him if Walker is a no.

I agree, Foster is nowhere near as good as some people think.
Robinson is the 'keeper we need.

More i think about it the less likely it appears that we will sign any of their lot. McLeish will have his own targets and I reckon he will work with what we have at the back apart from keeper and a full back.  Gardner would be lynched coming back here, plus he is shit. Little Gardner may get some games though.

AM's first 3 signings should be
1. Ray Wilkins as first team coach
2. a keeper, Shay Given will do nicely
3. Roger Johnson decent commanding centre-half.

No, he'd then get blamed for not going for Iniesta aswell.

Yea, I said in another thread that he should make those signings.

Now thinking about it, with lots of good attacking players, why would McLeish make us play negative football?

Primarily because he's fucking shit.


Whoever he's managed, it's looked like how Birmingham played last season.

Take your own entertainment to VP next season.

I can't get my head around people saying he will sign Jerome. He won't as he's not stupid. We have good forwards and need one addition but there is no way he will sign him.

Would not be surprised to see Joey Barton as 1 of his first signings, McLeish likes a midfield of battlers
