Bebe... if SAF was willing to sign him, sight unseen I thought he would be 'walking on water.'.. big ,big, disappointment, but a nice lad I believe!
Agreed each to their own, just found it odd that you’d be more excited about an unknown random compared to England’s greatest teenage talent.Would I have been excited by Messi? If he came in at any point in his career then surely I would have been.
It's just my opinion, there's been plenty of other signings that I was excited about Rio, Tevez, Ronaldo, Di Maria, VDS. But for me Forlan was the one I couldn't wait to see play, I was a lot younger then, it's nearly 20 years ago. But, like I said it was based off that one highlight reel.
And he was shit. After he left he was good, but at Utd he was shit. Macheda scored an important goal too, but he was still shit.
This!Tevez. Obviously I had a good look at him the previous season when he played for West Ham and he was simply amazing. I mean, I was actually tuning in to West Ham games to watch him play. He had great work rate and dragged that team up almost single-handedly. He was just clutch that season. He scored this freekick that was just perfect - over the wall and dipping just right to fit into the top corner. Was incredibly typed when we signed him because I didn't really expect us to go for him.
