Not for me. Don't need his wages, and he's bollocks in a 4-4-2.

Re: Official League Released List
The more I think about it, the more I think that if he is properly fit and could be secured without breaking the bank, that McFadden might be worth a go. He might have a bit of the "Kevin Davies" about him where he could in his late twenties re-invent himself a bit. Could play on the left or up front.
Very much doubt we'll go for him but I think he's the sort of player who might respond well to OC's ways!

Re: Official League Released List
I know it was reported that there was a relegation clause in his contract but, it being Wet Spam notwithstanding, THIS is the sort of thing you'd be pissed about as a fan.Lofthouse Lower wrote:Big Sam confirms Hitzelsperger has left West Ham - worth a punt?
Signed, injured pre-season, missed more than half the season, then demands to be released quick sticks when relegated.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

I did suggest McFadden before and I don't think many went for the idea. Still think it might be worth a go thoughBWFC_Insane wrote:The more I think about it, the more I think that if he is properly fit and could be secured without breaking the bank, that McFadden might be worth a go.

Odd with McFadden, he used to be quite some player but has dropped off the radar. There isn't even much transfer tittle-tattle about him, just some half-arsed and quickly denied links to Celtic and Rangers. Cynics will say there's a reason for this, but like BWFCi says he's adaptable, and certainly a Premier-class squad member. Anterior cruciate ligament injury (same as Holden, and Gardner back in the day - as I understand it, his more recent woes have been muscular) is a bad knock but not insurmountable, as proven by several players (Shearer, Gazza, Van Nistelrooy, Pires, Ronaldo). McFadden's just turned 28 and would be a potentially very good freebie if his wages fit.

It's the adaptability that is the selling point, Coyle likes players who can play in a multitude of possitions for the team. Keeps the wage bill downDave Sutton's barnet wrote:Well, it's obviously time to panic, especially in BWFCi's world...TKIZ! wrote:I did suggest McFadden before and I don't think many went for the idea.
