Wes Brown We should buy him. Apparently hes for sale in January, because he rejected a new contact offer. They dont want to lose him for nowt in the summer. The deal they offered him was appearance related, due to his previous injury record.
It'd be a gamble because he struggles to stay fit. Better than what we've got though, he's a good defender but not outstanding (IMO). Still worth going for though, given that most of his injury problems are breaks & not ongoing muscle/ligament damage..
At his best hes as good as Ferdinand/Woodgate IMO. A great athlete, and a footballer too. His only problem is those injuries, and the fact that after each injury he seems to take 15-20 games to find his form. Once he finds it, he looks superb. Played Henry better than anyone ive seen in that FA Cup game last season.
Wes Browns quailty, imo if he wasnt so injury prone and had got a run of games together 3-4 years ago Man Utd wouldnt have needed Ferdinand, Hes a brilliant defender who would be avaliable for cheap and if kept fit would be a great buy for any premiership club!
I don't rate him at all, in fact I reckon he was at the heart of Man Utd defensive problems. Rio makes him and Silvestre look good.
He's never been the same player since he wrapped his scooter outside our appartments in Ayia Napa in about 99/00 Wasnt a nice sight, i think that was the start of his knee ligament injuries as well, one of the reasons why a dont rate him as well is cos he's always fucked !! Granted he's better than some we have we wont get a full season out of him so is it worth it ?!?!
