Flop To Super Sub.

From flop to super sub.



Having come off the bench to score in extra time on Wednesday and win three vital points in the promotion race, Spanish superstar Xisco did it again on Sunday - sealing Deportivo La Coruna's return to the top flight.

His third goal in fourteen games this season came just four minutes after arriving as a 66th minute substitute at home to Huesca, with the scores tied at 1-1.

Xisco's winner came from a right wing cross, with the ball seemingly hitting him in the face as he attacked the six yard box. He'd failed to connect with a similar opportunity just moments earlier, with the goal at his mercy.

It remains to be seen whether any agreement can be reached over the summer to end Xisco's time as a Magpie - with his contract finally expiring in June 2013.

Maybe we'll get a return on him at last.

 

I wish we'd just kept the receipt!

 

Now there's a thought JWAG, what fun if players were covered by something like the 'Sale of Goods Act', they'd be returned for not meeting, 'Fitness for Purpose' and
Satisfactory Quality', or in the case of Keiron Dyer, 'Broken'. :

 

Dyer would've been returned more times than an MPs expenses claim! Would we be on dodgy ground trying to return Michael Owen on the grounds of being a twat?

 

bye bye Xisco...

 

Hopefully, Liverpool will have noticed and will put in abid of at least £40m - after all, they have always liked super-subs and Toon players, so to have both rolled into one would be a dream come true (and a bargain at £40m).

 

The dippers do like their spaniards.... can't see them paying over £35m though as he only has one year left on his contract..

 

Nice av ACS, say's it all.

 

Just getting him and smith off the wage bill alone will clear near enought 100k a week.

 

Enough to bring a top player in.
