leffe186 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Has there been another player who's got less near their hype than Robinho? Freddie Adu maybe? Adu certainly. Denilson? I suppose you could say Ali Dia, looking at it from the other direction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Wasn't Kerlon meant to revolutionize the sport with his seal dribble? How'd that end up? Adu has to be top though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Joe Cole? I know he had a good career but when he broke into the West Ham team he was raved about far more than Carrick & Lampard for instance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Wasn't Kerlon meant to revolutionize the sport with his seal dribble? How'd that end up? Adu has to be top though. Pretty sure I read he retired recently. Probably due a bad neck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he had a good career but when he broke into the West Ham team he was raved about far more than Carrick & Lampard for instance. Alan Smith was going to be the best striker since Wor Al at one point. He was very good in his early years and then moved to Man Utd, was shifted wide and suffered a serious injury. After that he was shocking, especially for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbemba Youre A Womble Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Adriano - looked a beast of a striker when he was at Parma, and a couple of years at Inter. Him and Drogba were surely the first of the complete forwards of the modern era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
