He was almost finished when he came here so he would have long passed his peak by then.
Not knocking Wes Brown, he is one of the defenders I would have in my team any day, even when he played for Sunderland.

Wes Brown's opportunities were limited when he left Sunderland.
He was told he could leave on a free transfer
But he was good enough to get a 1 year extension under Dick Advocaat - remember the old man :thumbup:

Was a decent player, just a pity about him being made of glass
