I would have thought so, but im sure they both talk lots about players so I wouldn't be suprised if Jos has watched him a few times before so likely knows Pelopussy too.

Jos just reads Owlstalk and makes his mind up based on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe even more than giants, mobility is very important now, not many players just sit in front of back 4. Scott Parker was great for his size/ability, if cat is anything like him then we have a player. He sounds good to me anyway, and wants to come. Lets get him signed. If he’s good at his job, I’m not unduly worried It’s an area where we’ve needed to strengthen Its true though, over the last few years, the average height of defensive midfielders has increased remarkably Most of the top sides will have at least two such players, standing 6-2, 6-3 or even 6-4 It’s the same with centre backs Previously the norm for a centre back might have been 6-0, 6-1, now its much higher Not sure why this has happened, and of course there are exceptions It is though, a definite trend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not heard any suggestions as to what it’s worth but his contract is expiring in 6 months so I think it’s fair to assume it’s much cheaper than would otherwise have been the case.
