The Independent claim that Liverpool are planning a surprise bid for Manchester United’s John O’Shea.
Of all the players in he world. First of all, I would like to state that he is a dedicated Manchester United player, meaning that he wouldn’t mind signing for any club in this scenario, EXCEPT Liverpool. Alex Ferguson has given him the green light to leave in the summer, but seriously, why bother trying to sign him?
The second thing that doesn’t seem to make sense here, is that we don’t need him! Our right-backs aren’t that bad, we have Glen Johnson and Martin Kelly fighting for the position, along with Flanagan for additional backup.
So if we really want to sign someone, we need to sign someone who is in fact BETTER than the above 3 whom are listed. O’Shea, is in my opinion, way past his prime, and his supposed ‘versatility’ is only there because he isn’t ‘great’ enough to be able to be considered as a consistent right-back, hence having to play as somewhat of a team player.
