Just been released by Shrewsbury, might be 36 but I'd certainly take him for the season, a tough tackling midfielder!

Is he the ex Man Utd player who headbutted a ref while on loan in Belgium, if so sign him up.

He'd have been a hell signing ten years ago!

I'd never have described him as tough tackling in fairness, a good player in his pomp, skilful and creative. But a 36 year old playmaker is about the opposite of what we need in our midfield.

Spent most of his career at Blackpool/Donny, good player but past his best I reckon.
