Still not worthy of a thread

Michel Salgado at Blackburn was a strange one too,

 

Not really. Fat Sam was manager then, right? He had a history of prolonging careers, so its no stranger than Hierro, Jay-Jay, Campo, Djorkaeff, Speed etc. at Bolton.

What's the piece SSN have on uncle Mick from their derby down there yesterday? Missed it but they blurred out his celebration or something.

 

He celebrated and gestured towards the Ipswich fans and mouthed ‘fucking get in’, ‘fuck off’ IIRC.

 

Been getting stick all season from them about his dire football, seems to have done alright with them so far though considering he’s working without any sort of budget.

Scored in the cup final didn't he?

 

Ravel Morrison in LigaMX is an odd one at the moment

 

 

Been a few odd transfers to Mexico in recent years. Andre-Pierre Gignac at Tigres, Jeremy Ménez at America.

 

Yeah, Enner Valencia and Keisuke Honda are playing out there as well. Landon Donovan has recently come out of retierment to play for somebody Mexican if I recall..

 

Would defiantly watch the league and follow if it was covered on TV like. I mean BT are showing Australian A League. By all accounts LigaMX is pretty decent standard.

 

It's a fun league and getting increasing air time in the US. Definitely worth it to check out a few matches if you're having insomnia over there

Has there been another player who's got less near their hype than Robinho? Freddie Adu maybe?

 

100 Brazilian caps, yeah total washout of a career that.

 

Wasn't a total failure at Real, in an odd time for them, and was decent enough for AC Milan. Thought he was good enough for Man City on the whole. That type of Brazilian in northern England is never going to go too well, but played his part in their journey.

 

Think there are plenty of players knocking around currently that are of equal, if not worse hype:substance ratio

 

Careers taken a turn for worse of late, appealing a conviction of gang rape in Italy

The hype was far bigger than what his career's been, I'm not saying he didn't achieve like. The hype was pre-Barca Neymar level before his transfer.

Yeah can get that. He was fairly decent mind for Santos mind. 

 

Think he's just one of those players that sees football and his career in it for the earning potential it can have for himself and his family/having Kia Jorabchian as an agent.

 

So never had the attitude to push his talent to the world class levels it could have achieved whilst he's still earning millions.

Absolutely. That's what I'm getting at really.
