    Who thought he would end up building his career at Preston North End.



    It can be crazy at times how a player can get such a look in at a top club, but once he leaves never see the Premier again (Though in fairness, he has plenty of years left to achieve this).

    well i thought he was fairly limted but look say at david thompson.. now he was better than most and had a chance but never come through after injuries.

    warnock, guthire and others i suppose prove attitude is important

    Was a peach of a strike <ok> I agree MITO that he was limited but had he been at Anfield developing over the last few years would he be a worse option than Carroll is right now?? At the moment I'm not so sure he would.

    I remember thinking he was going to be as good as Rooney - how right was I?

    Didn't he have knee problems that limited his chances/growth?

    We also had Sinma Pongolle.

    He's actually doing pretty well. Was at Athletico, but don't know if he still is.

    I remember being at home thinking it would be a draw , and then bam it flew in! Good times, I thought we let him go early, warnock too. Good point about David Thompson more injured.
