QuoteI can't understand why Ferguson played him at all, an unfit O'Shea is even more a liability than a fit O'Shea.
Yeah, I'm not blaming him, he just looked a long way off the pace.

I came across a saying recently that I must put into use.... never argue with idiots, they will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience
Its really not that complicated!!!
O'Shea I'm afraid will never fulfill his potential as a footballer at this stage. I think he doesn't have the hardness that is required in good players.
Well, he's made a good career for himself at one of the world's top clubs and has proven to be an important player for us. Fair play John O'!Originally Posted by yapster
What heights would he have needed to have reached by this point for you to consider him as having fulfilled his potential? I thought last season, with pretty-much a permanent first-team place in the United team and working with Trap on the international stage, was a defining or coming-of-age season for O'Shea. I admit, he was someone I had always doubted previously, maybe somewhat harshly at times, but he proved me wrong last season and now, rather than harbour anxiety and apprehension when I see him lining out for Ireland, I actually feel more secure with him in the starting line-up. Since when did being a hard man make a good player?
John O'Shea isn't a patch on Messi.
I just think he lacks a certain toughness in him thats all. Yes he had his best season last year but he still is a way off the player he should be.
Which is where?
He should at this stage of his career be a regular for his club, winning leagues and european cups and be a vital player for his national team........ oh wait
Its really not that complicated!!!
A vital player in one of the worst Irish squads ever.. A glorified sub at United for years.
just not true.
surely that doesn't surprise you. The WUM has a history of playing loose with the truth.

I'm not sure if it was last year's title winning season, or the season before that, but John O'Shea played more minutes than any other United player during one of those title winning seasons.
You're a joke.
whats surprised me really is that he is still allowed to post here despite me reporting the relevant posts.
i'm sure he has a nice pile of infractions by now.. hopefully he will go away eventually johns a legend
I think it was last season.As far as I know only Ronaldo started more games that season. United have missed him badly this season with Brown,Neville and Rafael all struggling in the right back position
Its really not that complicated!!!
I just happen to think that O'Shea is not a composed and accomplised player thats all. He had such potential when he first came on the scene but he lacks confidence in himself I think to fullfill his potential.
I run an Irish board, and I act upon the posts,pictures myself.I certainly would not look at someones complaint especially if he had a Bohs(1-0) crest beside his name(That was a joke). Yapster has come over here from my board, but he does love his role. When he gets bored here he'll come home to annoy some more folk up over there. I think though he really does believe what he is saying is true.
With a squad made up of players like Green, McShocking and Kilbad we are going places. Down the gutter.........
I've seen him live in the Champions League on a number of occasions; he has always been very comfortable on the ball.
