Denver RoyalLower West O'Shea has played in midfield for Man Utd in the past. For all his lack of mobility. Would read the game well. Nor does he have to be that active. Makele as an example basically stayed in the centre circle. When providing defensive cover in his Chelsea days.
LW, yep, was pondering if he’s an option somewhere. Obv not ideal, but it’s all relative to the predicament we’re currently in. As you rightly say, he does read the game well, and think his height could be useful. As I say, would imagine any and all options are on the table at this point. One way or another, whatever’s gone before, have to try and find a way to get the 3 pts on Sat.
Are you being serious?!
Jesus. So factually yes he has played in midfield in desperate times for Manchester Utd years and years ago. The fact now is he is old, slow and despite all his experience has not played there for a long time. If you're assuming he can just use his mind to tackle people then good luck with that. A player can have all the experience in the world but if he doesn't have the mobility to do it then it is absolutely pointless.
You also seem to be forgetting he had world class players around him to support him when he had to play in midfield.. we do not.
I'm sorry but I just find this suggestion to play John O'Shea in midfield quite short sighted and pretty damn ridiculous.
