Googled him, Transfermarkt says he joined Willem II from Ajax last Wednesday?

Replacing Marc Bolton with Scott Minto was a horrendous move on their part tbh. Never did like that stereotypical-as-fuck bar set they have either.

That was two and a half years ago in fairness. Sissoko was bought for under £2m at that time and ended up getting linked with £15-20m moves.

Back row on the right of the St Etienne picture looks like a tashy Cruyff, while front row on the right has a bit of Alberto Del Rio about him.

That's just two names marra. Had away man, it's head and shoulders above the other efforts. (Also, they're barely even names)

Chakademus Papavasiliou

Something about the wording of "resisting" trying to buy a player speaks so much about our attitude to transfer windows.

Saw him play in the J League years ago for Shimizu S-Pulse and he was very average. Hope he has improved a lot since then. Looked quite handy whenever I've seen him in highlights, can see him doing well to be honest. * bookmarks this post for the end of next season *

Read something over the weekend saying it's a move to suit his investment group (co-owned by Peter Lim) as much as anything and the Valencia coach had never seen him. Was Nacho Gonzalez part of this investment group?

Only watched about half of that. Not sure changing from a football kit to something suited for firefighting was the wisest.

Oh right, well all the best to them. Always good to see a team come up to the top flight for the first time, like Eibar last year and Carpi and Frosinone in Italy.

So are Girona basically the Catalan Middlesbrough?

Bumping this so the Jonas one gets put in.

3rd too similar to 2nd to make up too much ground imo. Peder Bear's to lose, this.

Newcastle to finish mid-table and De Jong top scorer, ahh that pre-season optimism. Season to forget for Aguero

That Rangers one is definitely done on photoshop by some 'designer' or something. Just has that feel.

With all that detective work out the way, now we can move onto the really important questions, like why the fuck has he kept that Pato one?

Aye, forgot they played each other in the group stage as well. By the time the semi final came around he'd gone to City. Good job

Was he playing for Man Utd that year they hammered Roma? The 5 or 6-1 where even Alan Smith scored? He was on loan at Zaragoza that season. They played them in the Champions League the year after but Totti didn't play in either game, even though Pique did. The Vieira one's bugging me. The only time I remember Barca playing Inter, Vieira was already at Man City, and I don't think they'd have crossed over at international level. Edit: FFS, old BBC match reports getting five hits at the exact same time I'm not that certain it's Vieira. Didn't he always wear #4 for Arsenal and France? I'm not certain either. He did wear 14 for Inter and it does look like an Inter shirt based on the font and that, but like I said their paths don't really cross. Bet he's getting them off classicfootballshirts or something.

Think the partnership of Aguero and Silva is one of my favourite things to watch in football currently. Both brilliant and seem to love playing together.

2011 CL final. Only got one goal but he ran the show completely. Dat goal celebration too. Dani Alves's bit "Yeah I'm going to kick that microphone as well!" always makes me chuckle

More or less . Had two young centre backs playing come through in this tournament though, Kannon and Bailly (spelling?)
