Watch him play he is a decent young player who if he keeps progressing the way he has been so far he will move onto a bigger and better team than Sunderland. Nationality have fuck all to do with it. I dont know why people bring it up. I expect you dont bring it up to the Welsh blues who want Bale at the club. Put it this way McClean may be Irish but none on the board can doubt how well he has done since he made his break into the Sunderland team.
You do know he did fuck all against us last week. They're biggest threats were the goalscorers, Bendtner and Larsson.
Oh, and you can't compare Bale to McClean. One has come on immensly in the last 2 years and is now showing his potential and will probably get better; the other is the 'Star-Kid' in an over-achieving Mid-Table team.
