ujpest doza Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I reckon that's rank as f***, he's basically sexually assaulted him. It's nothing new in South American football. When Scotland played Uruguay at the World Cup in Mexico in 1986 a Urugyuan defender stuck his finger up Graeme Sharps arse when defending a corner. Think it's quite common in football in general. Henrik Larsson said one of his tricks was to squeeze defenders balls ffs. Gentile did that to Steve Coppell in a WCQ for Spain 82 iirc in their 1st tackle.

Sho Time Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Love the utter nonchalance of both players there, they've clearly done that before in less competetive circumstances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did , in a qualifier for WC 78, which England won 2-0. Think it was Ron Greenwoods second game in charge, and KK scored a fucking outstanding header. Gentile was a fucking quality defender but one of the dirtiest I've seen. The central defensive pairing of Claudio Gentile and Gaetano Scirea were one of the all time best and uncompromising to say the least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Gentile was probably the most ironically named football player of all time. Him and Scirea were the ultimate "beauty and the beast" defensive pairing indeed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Given that we're in a six week exclusive due diligence period with some potential buyer, and there have been rumours about it being Wang Jianlin - the richest man in China, $35bn - interesting to see this today. http://m.chinadaily.com.cn/en/2015-06/25/content_21096147.htm Especially this bit, which caused me to do a small wee. Dalian Atkinson Wanda Group Co Ltd, the Chinese property giant, will buy at least three more sports companies this year as it continues on its quest to become a leader in the global sports industry. Wang Jianlin, its chairman, told Xinhua News Agency that he expects to announce a major acquisition very soon that would be "good news" for Chinese soccer, without giving further details. What'll happen now, of course, is that he'll buy Albion and we'll get picked up by some Tony Adams fronted, cash and brains-strapped outfit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always found Souness quite cowardly at times. He bigs himself and his team so much but I think he's still dizzy from Zico & Co running rings round him in Japan.

Robson's strength lay in his running, sometimes even carrying his team on effort. He couldn't play a defence splitting pass like Souness,nor did have the technical ability of Souness. I at the time deplored Bobby Robson for building his England team around Robson and Butch Wilkins, when he should have built it around Hoddle with Robson doing his donkey work. Souness meanwhile went to Italy, where the game really suited his style, after the Flamengo battering of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you that his running was immense and possibly a standout strength but so was his shooting tackling and heading which were all superior to Souness IMO. Souness the better passer and more technically creative is a fair point. As a pair they would've been immense for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You rarely saw Souness in the box whereas Robson bust his gut to get there to score his goals, if Souness scored it would generally be a long range effort, they would've been a good partnership for sure.
