Not at the expense of signing ricky holmesHe'll be reasonably cheap and has enough experience to influence the squad during a battle, he's got the ability to play pretty much anywhere on the pitch so he's useful to have on the bench.
As long as it doesn't prevent us signing anyone else he's worth holding onto until the end of the season
Because none of us have any idea how much benefit he brings to the squad off the pitch. Just like a Ranger type player can create a toxic atmosphere, a more positive mature player can create a positive atmosphere that isn't just visible on match day.Really why? What's he got other then a long throw ! The one game he starts he gets sent off !! Sorry but the money on his wages could be used better elsewhere.
Like david Luiz at arsenal u mean! Not the best defender in the world and makes mistakes regularly but they sign him because apparently hes a great influence within the squad and likeable character! I get what your saying but how much does that cost ? And we dont have the advantage of arsenals finances to sign players just because they are likeable.Because none of us have any idea how much benefit he brings to the squad off the pitch.

He won't shag you mateNot at the expense of signing ricky holmes
Once fully match fit would be useful both a CB and in one of the two holding holding midfield positions in a 4231 (he has played a lot there). add to the he can bung him up front of the limit on squad size you can see how MM might be keen. And that's before you get to the positive impact as a senior pro.
