United's centre backs were Ferdinand and Silvestre. They then signed Nemanja Vidic in January. Carragher is better than Silvestre but Vidic is much much better than Carragher.

| There's one thing saying it and another doing it.
One has signed long term to his club, the other two have jumped across to the dark side and the NRL at the first opportunity.
No doubt the 'Ginger Whinger' will be treated like a demi god on his final game in Merseyside!

Even as a Saints fan, I'd take no pleasure in Tomkins taking the 30 pieces of silver, but having said that I don't begrudge players taking whatever lucrative deals come their way, it's a short career and who would turn down a pay rise generally?
What galls me is when players are under contract (a lengthy one in Tomkins' case) and don't dismiss these types of questions with a 'All I care about is playing for (insert team here)".
The "who knows" response always seems like a thinly veiled flirtation with the other side.'"
Who does really know???? he could have said what you suggest but then he'd have been fibbing. If the rahrahs come in with the sort of salary that's being paid to Sonny Bill and darling Jonny, then Sam might feel a bit of a twit in 30 years time for staying with his £60k p.a. and turning his back on £500k p.a.
Whatever he decides in the future, good luck to him.

Ballcocks. Evra/Heinze-Rio-Vidic-GNev and don't forget we still had Piqué who has gone on to become one of Europe's better centre backs. Carragher was nowhere near 'walking into' that defence.

He wouldn't have needed to fib. "All I'm thinking about is playing for Wigan".
I wouldn't blame him at all for taking the payday, as I don't blame Eastmond. I DO however blame Eastmond for openly courting it (not suggesting for a moment that Tomkins' comments equate to Eastmond's whoring himself about amidst the prawn sandwich eaters).

I've no issue with players moving. Who wouldn't take a better paid job, or an improved lifestyle?
Not what I'm saying, at all.

| I remember Sam being asked in an interview about whether the switch to Union would be tempting. His response was "I can't even watch Rugby Union, let alone play it!"
That story is poppycock, like everything else that rag prints
