BBM

Someone on citynet message board saying that he's heard that Brian Barry-Murphy wants to come home to play ball in Cork again. How bad...

[Éanna]

would he get into the team though?

[pete]

I'd suspect his contract up at Preston at the end of the current english season.

If BBM has improved could see him doing well in midfield for us.

Would you put him into centre midfield ahead of Renno and Benno/Greg/Grady? Don´t think I would.

He might be an option on the left, leaving billy on the right. thus solving the "winger problem"

Could be a good option although would be nice if he didn't end up as a utility player again as thats why he couldn't get his game at city before...

Would be interesting to see how he'd make the transition from Preston reserves to the eL.

Agree with Pete. Always good to have quality players who are flexible. Injury crisis can strike at any time. Just look at the defence situation a few weeks ago.
With the midfielders we have playing well though, I wouldn't see him in the team.
