Would you trade him for a couple of strikers and a left back?

We'll have no choice about it in the summer. Unfortunately it will likely be one striker and one full back from the lower divisions for a combined total of approximately one twentieth of the Pearson fee with the rest going to buy Trevors next nag.

It was the Pearo McGeady show today. Some of his footwork was comically sublime. And his long-range passing - who needs Gally hey?

Frightening to think of the hole this bloke will leave behind.

He simply has to stay this summer.

I've said before, put him in the Gallagher role and find another defensive midfielder.

Truth is, Pearo is simply a quality player, wherever he pops up on the pitch. That irritating little shit at school who was just brilliant, first name on the sheet, your heart sank when he was chosen for the other team.

Seems to have completely overhauled his game too, I was worried when he cleaned up his act and seemed to lose his way a bit. Thought we'd lost him.

But now he's Renaissance man.

Interestingly - we sat behind the goal watching the warm-ups. He was one of the few players who actually scored. Whilst Nugent missed 8 out of 9 shots.

The flashpoint would have been after the Brewster tackle. In seasons past it would have been a matter of time before he gobbed off too much or flown into a similar tackle. Hes grown up.

I’m the immature one... I said to my missus that Pearo would get his own back !

I agree, I think he could be more effective in an advanced role as he can pick a pass, full of running and is comfortable on the ball. It's whether if Ledson is the answer to sit in front of the back 4.
 
Not a foot wrong all 90mins. Il be sad to see him go but if we don’t go up he deserves his chance to shine at the highest level.

Yet he rarely shoots during the match, even when he’s in a decent position.

I know it's been done to death on here, but it's truly an enigma why there's a magnetic force-field around the 18 yard area for him.

He's so good, so comfortable on the ball, I'd love to try some parallel-universe stuff and stick him in a more attacking role for a few games.
