To me he looks like he just can't be arsed anymore.

I'd like to see us sign Seedorf in the summer. The guys still a class act.

He was clearly asked to play a slightly more advanced role than Barry an Dejong an I thought he did ok. He brought it down well an played it simple which helped us keep it for a bit (an in the first half it was only for a bit). He hasnt the legs obv but today imo he showed why hes a useful asset to have.

Mate - watch it again...he was fucking pap, the reason he got fouled so much was because hes too fucking slow to release the ball.
He did my head in mate.

I honestly disagree, he reminded me of Hamann today (when he was half decent for us) intelligently winning free kicks. Took some pressure off us when we were clearly on the back foot. He brought the ball down well an played it simple keeping us in possesion taking pressure of the defence. He should not be played every game but like I said hes useful in certain games.
although the half time analysis said "Vieira rolling back the years"......wouldnt go that far ha.

So you would like us to get rid of one granddad and sign another one?..madness.
Personnaly Id like us to sign young players...older players like them 2 are for the wigans and the boltons of the world...teams that need that kind of experience to teach their young players a thing or 2.........we certainly dont fucking need them, what we need are top quality players either in their prime or not far away.

Was it just me or did we looked knackered? Though barry had a good first half, then a dodgy second half and looked fucked. Something up with tevez too, he looked fucked.
Well played Vince.
