Green, on the other hand should be kept on, and paid on a level with the others, and it should be him given the captaincy or Parker, as they're the only two that have a tongue in their heads.

WHULass (U13839296) posted Feb 20, 2009 For those complaining about Lucas Neill - he is apparently a top captain and massively respected and liked by his fellow players. He has a positive influence around the place. Although last season was not his best, he has played well overall this season and has struck a very good understanding with Behrami. I think him signing a new contract is a major boost for the club, the manager and his fellow players.

jeffers65 (U8885255) posted Feb 20, 2009 I have to admit I am getting a liking for Neill this season. He seems to care about the club and wants to be here. Ok he has his ups and downs, maybe more downs than ups, but who doesn't? Good news about the contracts being offered and the future is bright, the future is Claret & Blue!!! COYI

Hammerking91 (U8226579) posted Feb 20, 2009 i do not like neil, i do not think he is good enough for the premier league anymore, i dont dount his ability as a captain, i think he is a decent one but i wud like to see it given to upson or parker, i heard from so called 'Experts' (was quite a while ago) hanson and (cnt remember who else) that green isn't loud enough in the area and doesnt order his defenders around. just what i heard, seems to be doing a pretty good job from where im sitting Comment on this article |
