Not to buck the trend but was canny first time, second well he was fucked before we signed him but did OK.
Most people were pleased when we signed him for his second spell. Remember a few on here saying the answer to our left-back issues since losing McCartney has been signing McCartney.
I couldn't believe how bad he was when he came back.

From memory he was OK first time around.
Don’t think he wanted to be here when he came back and was bang rancid for the duration.

Millwall FA Cup semi final, 1 nil down, clean through and just the keeper to beat....colour visibly drained from his face and shat his pants
And who gave the ball away that led to that goal?

You should have walked past Mcartney n just whispered "Brian Deane"...He would have dropped his pint and shit his pants.

He wasn’t though. I watched him through the reserves and he was a class product. More than held his own in the first team and was a good player for us. It was a shame we sold him. Second time around was a big mistake. I always believe you should never go back in life.

I think he took the piss out of the club in his second spell here. He wasn't all that in his first spell and but he clearly felt we still owed him something when he came back as he basically robbed the club of his substantial wage without ever putting anything back in. Whatever injuries he had, I'll suspect that some at the club expected more from a lad who'd come through the youth set-up.
And yes, he bottled it at Old Trafford and cost us a place in a cup final. Considering the money spent on him, I'd have him down as one of our worst signings of all time.

Awful captain, never really endeared himself to fans, seemed devoid of a personality, half decent left back first time around

He was no Mickey Gray in his first spell and he was no Martin Scott in his second.

I thought he was average sorry.
Was no Martin Scott in his first spell, cracking full back was Scotty.
What was it? £16m combined on him and Ferdinand?
Alreet George?

I remember the game v arsenal when he was took off after being roasted time after time. Was horrific to watch.

Another Bruce tactical masterstroke that
Started Anton Ferdinand in midfield then moved him to left back and McCartney to midfield after 15 minutes of him getting tortured- Status
