LooneyToonArmy Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 G'uivarch was a f***ing World Cup winner...but was absolutely s***. He was s*** in the World Cup. It was hardly a surprise. He didn't last long enough to register as a disappointment. aye, he only played 4 games (most as sub I think) and he scored 1 goal.....hardly had a chance likewise Xisco. Maric for me was a disappointment after watching the Champions league game with Dinamo Zagreb. Looked top class in that game (alongside Prosinecki) but never did the business with us. Only ever remember him setting Shearer's goal in the FA cup....but other than that..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gggg Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 G'uivarch was a fucking World Cup winner...but was absolutely shit. Possibly the luckiest WC winner ever. Credit to France for giving the others a chance and playing with 10 men. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Kieron Dyer, had buckets of potential, ultimately ruined by injury. Good shout. In terms of just how much potential the guy had and what he could have achieved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - Viana really should have been a world beater. Wasn't suited to English football imho. Poor move for him and us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - Viana really should have been a world beater. Wasn't suited to English football imho. Poor move for him and us. wasn't Sir Bobby deliberating between signing C.Ronaldo and Hugo Viana before going for the latter? Or is that just a myth.

levelsevenlee Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Duff was somewhere between average and crap during his time with us. He's near the top of the list. For me, as well as the fact that he was disinterested and shit, it's the impact on N'Zogbia's progress that this waster had. I couldn't understand at the time why we were signing an inferior player (on loads more cash) than what we already had - who'd had a blinding finish to the previous season.

Ginola Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Duff, Butt, Smith, Owen, Luque, Maric, Bassedas, Boumsong, Marcelino. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 The ones that immediately jump to mind have already been said tbh; Emre, Luque, Viana, Dyer were the ones that immediately jumped to mind. So i'll throw Lomana Tresor Lua Lua in there. Had the occasional touch of quality; pretty skilful and quick. Never really cut it in the end. As if we let him play against us for Pompey.

gazza ladra Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Forgot about Emre. Unlike my other nominee, Duff, I never turned on Emre. Still don't hate the guy. He was just...so disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Emre should never have been sold in a million years. Think he was pretty much spent as a Newcastle player. Came, promised much whilst showing glimpses, got rich, failed, went. Like the majority of players from that period. EDIT: Unless you mean by Inter?

Ronaldo Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Still think he was our best CM when he was sold. Keegan had no use for a playmaker, so off he went. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 I wanted Emre out the door for his terrible injury record, let alone his patchy form when he was fit. Didn't have enough good games for us in 3 seasons, no chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Emre got cut a lot of slack for his free kick v Sunderland. He was on the whole largely disappointing with only occasional glimpses of true quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
