I have been away for two weeks so do not know if there has been any comment on the trialling of this 32 year old mid-fielder at Portsmouth. He played for several years at Norwich City in two stints ( though never overlapping with Jim Brennan ) and I thought he was a very good holding mid-fielder. A knowledgeable Canary fan speaks well of him in their local newspaper.

He started as a leftback and then went to holding mid in the Philly game.I thought he was steady and didn`t turn the ball over.I do not think he was responsible for any of the goals.He is younger then Frings and seems to cover more ground.I think you can pair him up with Cesar and release Fringes and hopefully sign him to a reasonble contract for a year and see how he makes out.We would save some money on cap space to get the forwards and widemids we need.Dunfield could be the guy coming off the bench for depth
