Javier Mascherano

[New York Red]

Not settled in at West Ham

 

Only 22

 

Tough centre midfielder

 

Needs some discipline possibly (Rafa would be perfect)

 

I think he'd be a great call for us.

[Guest BrianF]

Too much politics going on with those two. They are only at West Ham until someone offers big money and that won't be us.

[Tones]

There is way too much politics with those two. Plus i think he would cost a bit too much for us.

[Herbie von Smalls]

i thought players couldn't be transferred between clubs within the same league twice in the same season.

Looked a very good player in the WC. Too much political baggage surrounding him though, and as Herbie pointed out, it's not even an option under the rules.

[Guest Kev]

He'll be at Chelsea soon, West Ham is just as stop gap.

[Guest Anders Honoré]

He is too good and too young. I don't think it is sustainable to have four central midfielders with that profile all with their best years ahead of them at the club.

[hideNseek]

How can anyone be too good for us?

None of them would be happy being fourth choice nor should have they have to be. They could go to other major clubs and be higher up the hierarchy than that. Try and rotate them so all will get games and someone will still be disatisfied with the role in the squad.

complete and total water carrier, creates nothing has no goal threat but keeps the game moving nicely along

[Hodgson for Chelsea]

I think you're right, something stinks about that deal that took them to West Ham.

 

Having said that he's a decent player and we need cover for Sissoko. Does anyone know how much he'd cost? Who ACTUALLY owns him?

[DJM]

That Kir Jooarbichin or whatever he's called owns half of him apparently. Top or bottom half I dunno. When this Icelandic chap comes in both Argies will be sold. £30m each is what is being asked

[Rimbeux]

He's more than a decent player,, the circumstances and situation the money men have placed him in have really masked his quality. Players are not robots, it's just a shame these players have not been able to make moves for at least some shread of a football reason.

I think even Chelsea would flinch at that price now!

They can't move this season though.

MSI owns them in full, AFAIK. Jorabchian is no longer affiliated with them though.
