Cleverley article in The Times

[Big Swifty]

A somewhat sycophantic full-page spread appears in today's Times devoted to how Cleverley scored against Newcastle and is not therefore a misser of sitters after all. He has apparently learnt what he knows from Scholes, "the best midfielder in Europe" (or was it "in the world"? I can't be arsed looking).
I wonder if he would get such flattering coverage if his name was Tom Clumsy? Shouldn't be surprised if he changed his name by deed poll just to influence the selectors.

Was it the Sun who tried to claim he was better than Fabregas the day or two before he had that stinker for England?

In all fairness, those types of articles are nearly always sycophantic. I presume that is the basis upon which their agents/pr agree to the interview in the first place.

You 2 above are just bitter blue posters. He is the new Zindane, the new Messiah, he will save English football on his own. How do I know this ? because the independent press keep telling me he is. You know, the esteemed independent press that refuses to say anything bad about the rags in case they are banned by red nose. He has never missed a sitter, had a bad game or told one lie in his life. I fully expect the Pope to make him a saint any day now.

he's world class and anyone who doesn't agree doesn't know football

I would give them Silva, Yaya plus £20million without a second thought for this footballing genius.

i'm sure Phil Jones will have something to say about that!

Would have been the perfect replacement for modric, if not better. Doubt we could attract a player like that though. Easily worth 50m

No he's not the new zidane, zidane is the old cleverley. I have it on good authority that as a 2 year old tommy boy was better than ZZ in his prime......
