Thespence Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I see Rafael Sobis & Lua Lua are both out there now. Any of the boards Middle East correspondents seen them play or read reports of games they have played in? Has Mauro Zarate been sold or is it another loan deal with Lazio? What other players of note are out there? Cheers for any info Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Zarate is another loan and hes absolutely spanking Serie A. Lua Lua ive not heard a dickie bird about, but Sobis deal actually stalled then cancelled hes still a Betis player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just done a bit digging on google & Sobis scored twice at the weekend. The two goals were an examples of direct play as Sobis each time went straight to the goal and scored with the easiest move. http://www.gulfnews.com/sport/Football/10248035.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Ya he plays for Al Jazira. He is far too yong to be wasting time in the UAE. Surely he could have gotten bigmoney elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Sobis flopped at Betis anyway. He was supposed to be the next big thing after winning the Libertadores with Internacional. They should have learnt their lesson after Denilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Looks like Pascal Feindouno of St-Etienne's going to be the next big-name to go across there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segun Oluwaniyi Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Yep, he left like last week. It's a shame....he was quite an entertaining player. Although that club does seem to have had some decent players. In fact I think they own Karate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
