indierich06 Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 Be careful what you wish for fella, I've heard we are in for Titus Bramble. Not a wind up either. I'm certainly not wishing for Titus Bramble, I just want us to get rid of an overrated, overpaid flop. Pearson's got a good track record in signing CB's - Wes Morgan's been one of our best players this season. If he signs a replacement for SSL who is half as good as Morgan's been for us, we'll be laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 I will be sad to see him leave, I think he has been harshly criticized by some fans on this forum. Fans were calling for him to start when he got fit, and were very proud of his performance at Cardiff when he did come back, one bad performance against Derby in front of cameras, then fans got on his back again, and said he isn't good enough. He was a good defender, who improved dramatically at the back end of the 11/12 season, and started 12/13 season pretty well alongside Wes until he got injured. But it's understandable that we really need to get him off our books wages wise, I'm sure Pearson will look to keep Morgan and Whitbread, as Whitbread's wages are probably much lesser than St Ledger's. Think we now need to get in two centre backs, someone cheaper from the Championship, then maybe someone young like we had with Michael Keane.

Callabinho Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 He was steady, but that's about it, a fully fit Zak Whitbread is better IMO anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 Easy to replace. An average Championship centre back. A millwall level player that's paid too much and sadly for him hit an injury bug. Thanks for trying SSL. Goodbye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes in theory but in reality no f**king chance because he won't last 20 games let alone 46 not Saying St Ledger is either. But simply we need a central defender that is going to last the whole season alongside Morgan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpe's Fox Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 I thought he wasn't too bad for us, pretty average but his only awful performance was at Pride Park. But was he good enough to justify his wages? Probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 Here we go! Plebs on here with their "He's Sh**" rubbish whenever a player is about to leave our club. Credit it to him, at least he always wanted to play and wasn't prepared to sit and take the money like other signings. I can see Wes, Kasper going too, We really needed to change the manager, a bad start and we could be looking for a new manager mid season, what good is that? don't call me a pleb you moron! some people rate him,others don't,when we signed him i said that i didn't rate him then and in most of his performances in a city shirt, he didn't do anything to change my opinion of him!

WhenYourSmilingLCFC Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 Notice he says he wouldnt want to leave. If he was on half of what he is at the min, he'd get hardly any stick. If him and Wes played a few games together they could strike a decent partnership, but his wages mean hes got too go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 Why would anyone WANT to leave a job that has paid big money for doing nothing? His only incentive is that it may affect his international career - but then again he does play for a third world football nation, so probably not.

Bob Weasel Fox Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 It's all about opinions, I would say generally he hasn't been good enough and if its true he is on silly wages, get rid and quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFS Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 They did try to revalue his contract, obviously wants to stay here so much that money doesn't matter eh Sean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 I would really like to see Pearson pick out another gem, someone in the mould of Winston Reid of West Ham, of course not Winston Reid himself because he is absolutely class, but I really liked what West Ham did, they were impressed with him at the World Cup then they picked him up from Norway, and has turned out to be a fantastic signing for them and is now their captain isn't he and won their player of the year this season. If Pearson could pick a gem up, like West Ham did with Winston Reid I would be really happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peach0000 Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 In my opinion he is much better than anyone we will bring in. Also like the fact he was born in birmingham yet plays for ireland and also where the article say St Ledger (right) and there isn't a picture of him.

Johnny Cash Posted 28 May 2013 Share Posted 28 May 2013 How some people can claim St Ledger is rubbish is beyond me. He must be an international footballer by absolute chance, a decent country too, not exactly a token team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be an international footballer by absolute chance, a decent country too, not exactly a token team. They can claim it because they have seen him play. He's been bang average.
