lien1 Â Â 10 #1 Posted November 17, 2017 Got to say David brooks is just a gifted player and a pleasure to watch everything is just going so well for him man off match for wales midweek he must be feeling so good ,but then I look at our past players ,when Michael tonge Was at his best what a player he was ,to be honest was he better than brooks I seem to think he was slightly stronger and seemed to have more time on the ball Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Runningman   142 #2 Posted November 17, 2017 Shame that Michael never became the player we all hoped he would. Hope they nail David Brookes feet firmly to the turf and prevent him from becoming bigger than he thinks he is !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
atticus   96 #3 Posted November 17, 2017 Brooks is good..... very good. The best young player i’ve seen at the Lane. I’ll be amazed if he’s not plying his trade in the premiership next season.  Tongue was brilliant on the ball and so is Brooks.the key difference for me is the effort Brooks puts in when he isn’t in possession .

Danny_Boy   10 #4 Posted November 17, 2017 There were a lot of rumours at the time that Michael hated football, he was just pretty good at it. He saw it like a lot of us see our jobs, something he has to make a living.  I think Tonge was probably a bit stronger & maybe a better passer of the ball but Brooks is more creative, a better dribbler and has more pace.

Vasquez Rich   10 #5 Posted November 18, 2017 The day Tonge scored those two goals against Liverpool he was the best player on the pitch by a mile. I don't think he ever reached those heights again to be honest.  Richard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jacklev1 Â Â 12 #6 Posted November 19, 2017 Looks like more interest for brooks in January Liverpool Spurs paper talk 20 million plus suppose just a matter of time bound to happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Robbie Loving   10 #7 Posted November 19, 2017 Seen the paper talk as well, and if we did get a £20 million bid, I don't see how we could turn it down with a good sell on clause.  Anyway, I have not seen a player with such good feet at United before. Brooks for me has the potential to be whatever he wants to be. He also looks like he has the right attitude too. He is so positive in going forward too, which is the reason why his passing ratio will not be anywhere near as good as some of the others.  Tonge had bags of potential and some of his performances were amazing, but I think Brooks is far better with the ball.
