Or a (sober) Paul Gascoigne, who said he was the best player he ever played against and that he didn't run "cos he never needed to, he just knew where the ball would go and he stood there". To cap it all he was of course an Inter fan who failed a trial there...

He was really **** in the final of USA 94, when after getting injured in the first group game he was written off completely before making a miraculous recovery and then shoved straight back into the starting line-up.

Rio and gazza all the deep thinkers then

 

[ElTigre]

Is it only City fans that make up songs or nicknames for a new signing before he's even scored his first own goal?

I'm pretty sure there are plenty of others who think it, the Gazza one was just an anecdote I remember him saying.

Why don't you start an Italian thread no one gives a **** about it.

Oh and Enzo bearzot didn't even pick him for the 86 World Cup and he didn't get a game in the 82 World Cup.

Because it's not a discussion about Italian football. Carmine (I think) said 5ft 9 wasn't much kop for a centre back and I gave an example of someone of that height who was pretty decent.

If you hadn't replied saying about how he was overrated it would've ended there...

And you turn a lot of your posts into a reference about Italy.

I thought Mark Greaves was closer to 6ft-ish.

I nearly choked on my dinner.

Aye, a Leyton Orient player...

If I'd just randomly come out with some Italian based info i can see it would be an issue, but we were talking about 5ft 9 centre backs.

So talk about Chester not some dead Italian

 

[Carmine Galante.]

Cannavaro was about 5'4" and he was half decent.

Bobby Moore was even shorter.

Accuse me of Italian bias by all means, but personally I think Baresi was better than Chester.

5ft 11.

Come on guys, typical, arguing over a few inches!! There again, size does of course matter........




for a CB!

Not just the attitude in my opinion. He had raw talent and athleticism but no killer instinct. One of those strikers who would always arrive just too late for the cross. Blueprint of a lower league player I'd say.

I would have said exactly that about josh king.
All these young players the man u's Chelsea Arsenal Hoover up have the potential. Bit of a lottery who will make it. I'd give him a shot. If he's filled out a bit too.
