Tom Cleverley


Recommended Posts

DIdn't he spendsome time at Wigan on loan, and didn't he do pretty well? Ferguson persevered with as well, and Robbie probably knows what he's getting. But he's been pure shite this season for Man Uts and ENgland, so a risky buy. Never worth 15mil. But I reckon a change might do him good, and I bet he's play for Robbie. Never pay more than 5mil for him, but maybe worth a punt.

Yeh Matt he was very good at Wigan, scoring more goals in 25 games for them that he has done in double that for Utd.

 

At Wigan he played out wide to start with before moving more centrally, but still in attacking role as opposed to the deeper role he is being utilised in under Moyes and Fergie before that.

 

There is no doubt that Cleverley is a good technical player and some of his passing and movement has shown that he has the footballing brain to go with that technical ability. When he first came onto the scene he showed these qualities and quite regularly too. I must admit I thought he was going to be right up there with the other young English midfield talent but since his first 6 or so months at Utd he has gradually become worse and worse and the way Moyes is utlising him now is probably stiffling him even more.

 

At the right price, he would be a good addition to this squad. If we could get his confidence up, he will help the team create chances and whilst Im not sure how great of a finisher he is (did score 11 in 33 at Watford - or something similar), he hasnt looked a natural when I have seen him over the last couple of years.

The Times' James Ducker says he's Martinez second highest priority signing (Lukaku is first). I've cancelled my subscription so can't provide details but on twitter he says:

Everton will make a bid of about £8 million for Tom Cleverley, the Manchester United and England midfielder, at the end of the season.

 

Roberto Martínez, the Everton manager, has identified Cleverley as one of his main summer transfer targets alongside Romelu Lukaku, the Belgium striker who is on loan at Goodison Park from Chelsea.

We must not be confident of Barry re-signing here then.
