At best? Come on dude, give the guy more credit than that. He would be leaps and bounds better than some of the RB's at the bottom of the table and you're suggesting that he should probably be playing in League One. That's a pretty hyperbolic statement.

Watched plenty of Naughton and I don't see it. I think when you see Naughton play alright (vs dreadful), you tend to overstate his mediocre performances. Plus, throw in his age, he isn't getting much better. He is a decent Prem back up and a Championship-caliber type player at best.

Okay, I'll say it again. "At best" implies that he would be better off in League One if he's "a Championship-caliber type player at best." Is that what you intend to say? Not trying to start a fight or anything, just trying to get some clarification.

If you prefer me to speak in meme like Tennessee Spur , here you go:

And Naughton is "leaps n bounds better then some of the RB's at the bottom of the table "?

Naughton was pretty awful last year. I need your definition of "leaps n bounds"

Let's keep this nice n simple. Put Naughton's quality in whatever league you want outside of the Prem and any other comparable league.

Are you telling me you would honestly prefer Santiago Vergini over Naughton? Hell, even though he doesn't get many games, Tony Hibbert still plays for Everton as a backup.

I wouldn't prefer any of them including Naughton. Watched plenty of the bottom of the prem to disagree with your "leaps n bounds" notion. Let's see how he looks in place of Walker n happy to be proven wrong on that matter. Unlikely

 

[Benjamin]

We're gonna just have to agree to disagree.

I imagine Yedlin will play two games for us at the very end of the season if they really don't matter.

[sammyspurs]

Yedlin is better by simple default purposes since Naughton is a Championship right back at best.

Yet the Championship is stronger than the MLS so we still dont know

Probably so. But somebody looked awfully good in Brazil this summer while the other was enjoying it on his couch with his feet up n a few cold ones

If Glenn Johnson was American, Yedlin would have watched from his sofa too

 

[Joe Clash]

Yedlin had a better WC than Johnson, but I see what you're getting at.

 

[PhillyHotspur]

Glen Johnson is shit too (lesser of course). And let's not imply Naughton had any biz being near Brazil or there were a few quality players preventing him from being on the national team.

Don't see where this argument's getting at as a fit Kyle Walker > Yedlin/Naughton :walker:

 

[Chance]

Yedlin played tonight in the US Open Cup and had an assist on Seattle's 5th goal. It was a very nice cross (one of Yedlin's biggest improvements in his 2nd season has been his crossing).

 

[ArcspacE]

O

Trust me. Feel exactly the same way when I hear your lot talking up the big year coming from Aaron Lennon. Rejoice!! Now imagine if he was a Yank with his yearly statistical productivity?:lennonlol:

Here to only support your fellow-countrymen?

 

[tbonepremier]

To say that Naughton is championship level at best is bs. He did well during his loan spell in Norwich a couple of seasons back. Also remember that Rose, our LB who loads of people have been dissing, was young player of the year in Sunderland and hailed by commentators as one of their best and most important players.

You also have players like Adam (cunt), Allen, Cleverley, Downing, and many more, that proves that a player that isn't just good enough, but a star, for low to mid table premier league looks hopeless in the top teams.

Imo Naughton is ok for a top team as backup, and would easily be the first choice right back for half the PL teams.

 

[CJJ]

As if some people are slagging off Yedlin already.

aulinhofacepalm:

Bearing in mind how little we've paid, and considering that when Walker was his age (just turned 21) he was on loan in the Championship with QPR, no where near our first team, I think we've got a hell of a bargain and a guy with fantastic potential.
