I will say it now. If he turns out any good then McLeish will have been bloody lucky. He didn't really mean to sign him.
Well this is a sad day. Mcleish planning for the summer! Truly guttingOh welcome aboard Brett
I didn't rate him and thought he was terribly crap until the World Cup last year. Can have a tendency to run around like a headless chook and seem a bit aimless. He has bags of energy and never stops running, good pace and he has developed an eye for goal. I have my doubts as to whether he is good enough to be a regular contributor in the Prem. At the same time he might be able to fill that Milner sized hole in midfield that we have had for the last 2 years with his energy.

Also, shouldn't you be commending him for being proactive and doing some business done so soon? That's surely a good thing? He's just signed the Australia footballer of the year on a free, and that country has produced some very solid footballers in the last number of years.
