metlika 0 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I personally don't rate the Portsmouth players that much, average players for ridiculous wages, even now when they are in administration. Their players for their last cup final I would have taken and we did get one, Mendes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is plenty of good players at portsmouth that would walk into most positions in our team for example aruna dindane, john utaka,aaron mokoana,tal ben haim,marc wilson,belhadj,boupa diop, sowah and thats just off the top of my head. To say average players is a bit harsh maybe average premiership players but good spl players! Although i do agree with the wages problem that would be a massive stumbling block for us! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Belhadj is probably the only player I would have out of those you have mentioned, I just don't rate them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that Charlie Adam is no way worth �£5 million he has had a better than ok season i think he has scored around 20 goals from midfield I would say that is better than an ok season and the Championship is a lot more competetive than half the top leagues in Europe just take Leicester and Nottm Forest for example just up from League one and straight into the Playoffs in there first season back up! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't be serious mate. http://www.gersnetonline.co.uk/vb/images/smilies/confused.gifHave you seen Dindane this season he has a good goals per game ratio in the best league in the world for a team who is bottom! John Utaka is great big athletic holding midfielder who can also double up and play off the front 2! Tal ben Haim has 50 plus international caps and played champions league football, kevin prince boateng had a good season and is being strongly linked with Man City and Arsenal. Ricardo Rocha another internationalist who has had a decent season and has experience of European football, I am not saying these players are World Class but they could come up to scotland and run amock and be good additions to our team but as u mentioned earlier we could not afford there wages! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
