Not saying that Keane is the player I'm thinking of but could play too...someone of his type! | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
When is the last time swans had a hard nasty defensive midfielder? on 00:30 - Jul 15 with 3917 views | karnataka | It was probably Ferrie Bodde but I'm sure I read somewhere that Mesa racked up quite a few yellows last season so maybe he's capable of mixing it when necessary. | ![](/images/avatars/9767.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Yep. At that level he also had a great football brain and a cracking passing range. I'd love us to find a PL equivalent to replace Cork. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

To describe Bodde as a defensive midfielder is selling him short. He was much more of a complete midfielder. | ![](/images/avatars/8643.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

IMO he would have been brilliant in the Premier League, what would he be worth today. | ![](/images/avatars/9155.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

They give yellow cards for cynical trips and celebrating goals these days, a nasty defensive midfielder has been replaced by a marathon runner (Kante style) to disrupt play.

I still think he's the player I've enjoyed watching the most in our Liberty days. | ![](/images/avatars/8643.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

agreed - and the balance btn Leon, Bodde and Pratley was exceptional to the OP - its not about Nasty per se - its about balance Leon / TC / Roque / Fer has potential if Fer is to up his intensity and longevity | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

He was absolutely head and shoulders above anything in league 1 and also stood out in the championship. Such a bloody nothing challenge/situation by the west/family corner vs Birmingham that caused his injury too, very cruel was that. | ![](/images/avatars/10809.gif) |

Loved Wyndham, but he was a full back for good reason. Great man as well. | ![](/images/avatars/9736.gif) |
