duncanmckenzieismagic Posted June 29, 2010 Report Posted June 29, 2010 The ever so reliable Daily Mail are linking uds with the German defender http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1290680/Everton-want-Germanys-Arne-Friedrich-Magaye-Gueye-bid-accepted.html?ITO=1490
chongli Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Not terribly young, but has been quite solid in the world cup performances I've seen.
Matt Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 World cup opposition for them have hardly been testing. At 31 i see no advantage here, no matter how cheap he is.
Bill Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 World cup opposition for them have hardly been testing. At 31 i see no advantage here, no matter how cheap he is. If hes good and we can get three or four years out of him i dont see why not, we've had a few aging centre half's doing a good job for us in the past 10 years. I can remember two Scots and an Englishman (who is still at the club) playing on till they were 35 or more.

Bill Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Davey Weir's just signed on for another year at Rangers....and he's forty . I'm not sure how old Richard Gough was when he finished with us. Anybody going for a couple of brownie points by naming the Englishman.??
BibbledyBoo Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I'm not sure how old Richard Gough was when he finished with us. Anybody going for a couple of brownie points by naming the Englishman.?? Stubbsy?
iggy Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Waggy was the wrong side of 35 when he finished playing too.
Bill Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I think Centre Half is a fairly easy position to play for the aging professional, thats why i say if hes good enough and we can get 3 or 4 years out of him, £2 million is not a lot to pay.
Romey 1878 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I think Centre Half is a fairly easy position to play for the aging professional, Try telling that to Upson after being burned for pace by Klose!
Bill Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Stubbsy was always short of pace but still took care of the business, i think centre half is more of a positional thing, pace helps but its not just pace that makes a good centre back.
holystove Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 Has signed a 3 year contract with Wolfsburg. http://translate.google.com/translate?js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=1&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.standaard.be%2Fartikel%2Fdetail.aspx%3Fartikelid%3DDMF20100702_060&sl=nl&tl=en Wouldn't have wanted him at Everton tbh.
