Pretty much the only period of his entire career where he was as good as his reputation suggests. Stop letting the last 6-8 months cloud your judgement. Yes he's become an intolerable prick who see's fist fights as the best way to stop the opposition but in his pomp pre-injury he was great at winning the ball and roughing up the opposition (legally).

joeyt Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Will we have a match thread for the pre-season games, or just use the Pre Season thread to discuss the matches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Will we have a match thread for the pre-season games, or just use the Pre Season thread to discuss the matches? Go on RTG, they probably have one already for our first pre-season game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very young, less than 20 years he signed for Newcastle, what is your assessment? Do you think you had to wait some time before you leave Portugal? A: So far, I have not regretted any decision I've made in my career. As for my departure to England, I must say that I consciously knew it would be my drive. It was a good experience and made me grow in all senses, not just as a player. Q: The star of the team was Alan Shearer, how do you remember? A: Of course, Alan Shearer has been the best players I've played. I prefer the ease to score goals that also had rocked him train. Q: At that time Newcastle had as coach Sir Bobby Robson ... A: Yes, Bobby Robson was like a father to me and with this I tell you all about the best person I've known in the world of football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross magoo Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Overrated, bearded c***. How many World Cups and Champions Leagues have you won? If you can enlighten us as to how that's relevant then i'd be delighted. Gattusso was decent but players who perform the sort of role that he performs are a dime a dozen.

Mr. Snrub Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 In 2007 Milan were a one man team. Kaka single handedly won them the Champions League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 How has Viana done, generally speaking, since he left us? Barely played for Valencia in the five years he was there, looks to be doing okay at Braga though. Did we ruin him or something? I'm sure he was European Young Player of the Year before we signed him...? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CheickMansour Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 We almost certainly set him back, but he seems to have clawed his way back to a decent level. Braga got to the Europa League final last year, but lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to be particularly good at football to do it. My point was and still is just because he squared up to Joe Jordan he shouldn't be ignored. If his players were a dime a dozen then you could name me a dozen who did his role at the very top level like him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Eh? This is nowt to do with what he did to that antagonist Jock. He's just a decent player who's scammed a career at the top level through repuation and bravado. Nothing special whatsoever, and looks grossly out of place in that list that Neil posted.
