Yes I know, but he was rated as one of the best left backs in the country. Vicente hasn't exactly just finished a run in the Spanish team either, but I think most of us are happy to have him here.

Don't think people should underestimate how our start to the league, the attendances, Vicente and our performances on telly will be attracting a higher caliber of player than we were looking at over the summer.
Not saying Bridge is coming, but we're an attractive proposition to Premiership reserves

No. Granted it is just my opinion, but he is woeful. Everyone has an opinion when it comes to football and that is mine, and nothing will change that. Granted, he can get forward and has a decent cross. Defensively he makes Painter look like .... err well Ashley Cole.
Well you're opinion is complete bollox. And if he came here and was our best player (which he could be) you still wouldn't change your opinion, which explains how you ended up with such a shit opinion in the first place.

Over the last couple of games the bar hasn't been set that high.The problem is we don't have long term cover at full back we have players that can cover but no real pressure on painter/calderon for their places in the team long term.
We have competition for places everywhere except at full back & in goal which has been highlighted in the last few games.

Anybody remember the England - Croatia game, the game we lost 3-2. I'm sure Wayne Bridge was to blame for at least two goals. I have never seen such a piss-poor performance from an England Left-back for years!
Might be able to do a job in The Championship for a season though...

I agree we need a full back as competition / cover, in order to put pressure on those in the squad. Trig, I give an opinion and you reply like a petulant child. I did not expect or want you or anyone to agree with it. I gave my opinion, which because it is clearly different to yours , you think its bollox.
And no you numpty, of course if he came here and was fantastic, I would change my opinion. Clearly what I meant was people like you who think they know it all will not change my opinion. I have a brain and a pair of eyes and a passion for football and feel I have a right to an opinion of my own, instead of following the crowd. ie - Oh he played for England and Chelsea and Man City, he must be great. Sorry I just don't agree with you. Big deal. If you want to make a sensible argument then feel free, but " your opinion is bollox" does not really carry any weight or have a shred of intelligence does it.
I was only kidding, a bit of banter because your opinion (re Bridge) is a bit odd.
I only said that because you said nothing would change your opinion. You may not have meant it so literally, but like I said, I was just taking the piss.
Could be a better signing than Vicente based on knowing English football and having a better injury record. Apart from the Croatia game when he was utter dog shit (who wasn't that night) his a quality left back and would improve our team immeasurably. His quick, has a great delivery and would be the best full back in the championship.

A good old Winchester boy Wayne Bridge... Brought up in a local estate (Stanmore) and one of my mates 'claims' he 'taught him to play football on the streets'.

Gus has always given the impression that he's not phased by ANY player's 'baggage'. Could be a good move for Mr B.
Terry too? Is that to provide cover for Dunk while he's suspended?
