Disco Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 That first season man. I haven't seen a player that committed to us, whilst still being class at the same time, in a long time. The captaincy killed him. I know, absolutely brilliant. I think he got a bit too much stick after that though. He wasn't too bad, the rest of the team were worse. Would've probably helped had he not given the crowd stick during the game n all like. Another in a long line of players who should've gone on to better things for us.

I wonder what his over-riding feeling is about when he played for us. Those two seasons were chalk and cheese for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Year of his birth It's more to do with the fact that "8" is his favourite number, according to his dad 8 was already taken so he asked for 88. Strange lad. He also says that he wants to be part of the England setup within 3 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Mackem friend is getting desperate. After ridiculing Bramble for years, he now thinks "oh well if he plays like he did at Wigan I don't mind, he probably won't play..." And of Heskey (he doesn't believe the rumours but happily believed the ones that said Valdez was going to move there ()) he has laughed about him as much as anyone else but now, "he isn't that bad really, Jones isn't much better..."

I thought they bought him from Southampton ? Was he at Stoke before that or on loan to them ? Would be a good fit there I think, fits Pulis's mould.

The way he used to go for tackles was insane, really loved it when he was playing in our midfield, i think he was never the same after breaking Bullards leg tbh, but i still think him leaving had a really bad effect on our team.

Guest Stephen927 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 The thing is Parker didn't have that player alongside him who could create what Scotty couldn't. For the most part Emre was the deep lying midfielder and Parker was more box to box, should have been Parker deep and Emre pulling the strings further forward. Parker and Butt in midfield, it was hard for the lad to get on with what he's good at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got excited when Trezeguet was rumoured to Corinthians with Ronaldo and R. Carlos. Guess its purely a money thing but if I were Spanish I could think of nothing better than heading off to Buenos Aires to end my career should I not need for money. Not to dissimilar culture, football would be suited to you (slower pace) but the crowds and attention are still big. And even if you were thirding your wage the living costs would equal that anyway. Imagine Raul running out for River - would be amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
