Confused Clarity Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Hargreaves is a great player. He's not a spectacular player, but then, thats not what his game is about. He's great at breaking up plays and snubbing out attacks before they begin. He's a very good reader of the game and if we're really after an out and out defensive midfielder as opposed to a box to box strong tackling midfielder like Keane of old, then he'd certainly be a good choice. I'd rather Mascherano, but he'd be a good alternative. If we got either of them and Carrick, it'd be interesting to see how the midfield and attack would work. Carrick tends to like to sit deep and pass the ball around, he's not so much of a tackling defensive midfielder, more a deep playmaker. With Carrick and Mascherano/Hargreaves as the midfield duo, we'd need Ruud to drop deep a little, into the hole, which really suits his game and it'd also allow the wingers to get forward more, again which is also something that suits their game. For me, that would be something that would add a real positivity to our game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the two of them not scoring is an issue because they're marked out as match winners but its not like anyone else has really stepped up. And our recent form in Europe has hardly been imperious, but injuries, form & a lack of experience individually or combined in relation to a lot of our players in the last few years has hampered our performances.
