    In your opinion. A lot of fans are frustrated at Harkes and have been for a while. I doubt we're signing an international quality player to battle with Powers for the stand-in central midfielder position.
    In MM we have a very experienced coach who will be able to see that we can't keep the ball in midfield and offer very little creativity. He won't be happy with that. (Chalmers has offered more since he broke through than any of the others put together). Fans have their own opinion, FWIW mine is that Harkes flatters to deceive. As I've said before, a better player beside him might improve him.

    Like I said earlier, if he's an improvement on either of them, then get him in as I think we can do better than both of those players. No one really knows what type of central midfielder this guy is, but I don't see him coming in to sit on the bench. We're looking to improve the team, not provide competition for those who can't get in the team.

    6-2 game? Yeah he's just needing to belt one in from 25 yards to convince any doubters. Wasn't the 6-2 game the last time his midfield mate scored too?

    It would take a good player that removed Harkes from the starting 11 so going on that it wouldnt be a bad thing but if say hypothetically Harkes got punted at christmas time i for one would not be a happy chappy and neither would most fans.All hypothetical ofcourse coz not going happen on either point. Bottom line utd is better with Harkes AT LEAST in the squad.

    For Fuchs sake I hope he's not too similar a player to Harkes & Butcher.

    I don't think he's improved more than Jamie Robson.
    Again, opinions...

    Fittest and athlete. Who cares? I want the boy to control football games, contribute to and score goals. Harkes doesn't do this enough for me.
