Frenkie who?
Midfield finally sorted

Don’t mind the idea myself of the experienced head in with the younger players, same as McShane last season.
Good pickup. Low cost veteran player who might have some value at the trade deadline and we can flip him for a prospect.
Good. Play him in the De Jong role and use the cash to sign a DM and a RW.
"We can do things in the transfer market that other clubs can only dream of”
Could use him for KD but would need to add some picks and maybe Ronaldo.
Thought I woke up in 2008 
good times
good timesProbably my only memory of his career was an absolute beauty he scored for Spurs at City about 15 years ago.
Wikipedia says he has 4 England caps, I have zero recollection of that.
Man had an utter bullet of a shot. These 18 year old keepers are going to have broken scaphoids.
For some reason I thought he was long retired.
Could also teach the kids a thing or two about positioning
his highlight reel make him look like an £100m man
Wow. Will this be a thing going forward?
Say what?
Liverpool have done the same thing by signing up former player Jay Spearing to guide the younger players.
That 6-0 hammering has really aged him.
Well one thing is for certain, someone on the caf is embarrassed about this.
We're finally signing a DM!!
He's 33?!
Our U21’s now burdened with glorious purpose?

Same here.
Arrow pointing forwrd & Long shots on Often.
He seriously looks like the character in this kids book I have.
Exciting times. TH21
Never have a problem with stuff like this. He could turn out to be a great coach/asset.
It did work out very well with Paul McShane apparently. Think this only gives guidance to the kids.
De Jong is the DM.
Player coach? Can't be serious. The last time I saw Tom play was over a year ago and he had to be practically wheeled off the bench. The bloke finds it difficult to walk let alone run.
Only thing I really remember about Huddlestone is him not getting a hair cut for 30 months after vowing not to get a hair cut until he scored a goal... He did raise a fair amount for cancer research though. So good on him for that.
Wasn't he one of the infamous "cake boys" at Spurs?... in that he used to stuff himself with a large piece of cake at halftime.
Why are we signing random underachieving players to coach our players again? What is happening? Tom Huddlestone? Why do we need him to play for the u21’s? What?
Why not Steven Sidwell? Or Steve Lomas? Is this some sort of a money laundering scheme? What the feck is the point of all of this?
Why can’t we do things that make sense for a change?
What a load of nonsense, come on guys… ffs

We're signing Craig David.
Am I having a stroke?
Jaysus.... that's what he looks like now? Life has been tough on him since that 10-12yrs ago when they had hopes for him to break through. I guess it will be good for the scouser kids to listen to his stories and learn from it.

Christ on a stick. This isn't new.
We brought back McShanne last season to do exactly the same thing.
Can you fill me in?
