Message: [QUOTE="Black Philip, post: 2447734, member: 8780"] [b]Re: 11/12 Football Thread[/b] Wickham is still very raw, the lad is only 19 so if he is to live up to the hype he will still need time. From what I saw of him last season he looked out of sorts a lot of the time, but that will happen when you're inexperienced and have little playing time in the PL under your belt. It's hard to say how he will turn out at this stage. McLean is turning out to be a fantastic young player. He's very strong, has pace, knows how to beat a man and has a mean cross on him to boot. He'll go far providing he keeps his head down and works hard. I dare say the reason O'Neil is so keen on Fletcher is to get him on the end of crosses from McClean and Larsson, of his 15 goals last season, 7 were with his head. On Johnson again, a lot of the critisism I see of him I think is hearsay from City followers who have been spoiled to say the least the last couple of seasons. Johnson can be lazy and greedy as well (there have been a few times I've seen him cut in from the right with a great move, only to lose it when he could have passed and kept the movement going) but with the right man manager, I think he would regain the form that got him signed by City in the first place. I have no idea what Mancini is doing replacing him with Scott Sinclair mind you, I think he will do nothing more than warm the bench. Nathan Dyer is better too. Apparently Dempsey refused to play for Fulham on Saturday. Poor form from him if true, but he would be a great signing for most teams. Quality player. [/QUOTE]
