Lucas Neill

[kurt321]

The West Ham and Australian Captains contract is up at the end of the year and we could get him on a free transfer. He mainly plays at right back but can also play centre back and in my opinion would be better than phil neville or lars jacobsen or tony hibbert. He is 30 but i think he has 2 or 3 good seasons left in him and on free transfer hes worth a chance.

[Jesse11]

His wages at West Ham are massive and he is apparently asking for even more. There is no way we could even nearly afford them. And he turned down liverpool to go to the Hammers so us being a better club is unlikely to sway his decision.

[Guest Reg Reagan]

he is a money hungry fuck!

 

and we dont need him...

Was very good in the last World Cup for us. Still I don't want him and no matter what we want we can't afford him.

[Sprooly]

decent player for 30 k a week at most i reckon but what he is asking for 70k? then no!

 

 

he is a one tournie wonder for me was bloody brilliant in the world cup

 

i dont want him

[aaron]

we went after him last time, his wage demands are rumoured to be stupid money. right wages then yes for cover.

i still think he is a twat.

[Everton_Worshiper]

No from me, think his attitude stinks based on press reports and he has big wage demands.

Noooooooo.

[jamiemaher85]

Dont worry mark it wont happen. He's on 70k a week at the moment and turned down a larger contract from West Ham, there is no way that we will pay that to someone of his "quality", in fact we wouldn't pay those wages to anyone, becasue we cant. He'll go to City and with that the Lescot to City rumours will go away.

Yeah I'm with you on that Jamie, Neill will most likely go to Manchester City as they can give him the wages he desires.

[CraccerC]

he is shite....one player i've never rated not worth a contract.

[EFC-Paul]

he is shite....one player i've never rated not worth a contract.

[marcopaulo]

where is everyone gettin the news from that neil rejected a bigger deal from west ham, apparantly they offered him half his current wages (35k). personally i would take him on a free but no more than 30k a week.he is a better all round defender than hibbert and jacobsen ,can play CB and has played RM for Blackburn in the past.he is a good friend of cahill's which could sway things in our favour also and i'm sure hewould be a good addition to the squad

Computer says no!

[Adpom]

i'd say no, bad attutude.

 

Have you noticed that any player named that anyone wants it says, also mark hughes is after him.

[Jimmy the blue]

No because he is pure shit

[jamiemaher85]

A few real glowing reports for Niell here! What is the genral feeling of all our Oz members.

[StevO]

so have west ham just torn up his contract?

[jamiemaher85]

His contract expired I think

[Sprooly]

He is shit but very good when he plays for Australia

[kurt321]

As an Australian I don't see why people say he is shit and has a bad attitude? If he was shit and had a bad attitude would he be captain of West Ham or Captain of Australia? He can play CB or RB and with Jagielka injured and Hibbert being shit as always, I think he would be a good signing. He is playing for Australia tonight and Im sure he will put in a good game as always. I would love to see him at Everton.

[Jimmy the blue]

His contract expired I think

 

pity he hasn't

[StevO]

As an Australian I don't see why people say he is shit and has a bad attitude?

 

because hes a money grabber.

why else turn down champions league football and challenging for the premier league with liverpool, to sign for west ham.

[Moe Joe]

Ahh Lucas Neill.

 

Couldn't even mark no named Japanese players from the J-League in Australia's qualifier against Japan which was on Setanta UK.

[duncanmckenzieismagic]

If we could get him here on decent wages then I think he would be a good addition to the squad he is definitely better than what we have got at the moment

[EFC-Paul]

Do we really want to sign a 31 year old who is average at best and earns a reported £77.000 a week? No thank you im no fan of Hibberts but i dont think this guy is much better and from what i have seen of Jacobson i would say he looks as good and would much rather keep him.

 

We need to bring in someone who is young and will make the position his own and have players like Hibbert as cover.

[Romey 1878]

I'd like to repeat; Nooooooooooo.

[Barryh]

Definately a NO from me Hibbert is a much better player,and totally agree with other posts he is a money grabber and a big "I`am" type of player.Get a youngster in.....I`m sure there is loads in the lower divisions who will make the grade.
