What bullshit. Was goal of the season

Never the same player after crashing his Ferrari.

You have 2 laugh at some of the comments on here I am not picking on any1 but this is a classic Royle saw straight threw him and dropped him, is this the same Joe Royle after dropping him we won 1 game beat Stockport 4 1 brought him back against QPR it was 2 late by then anyway .

Gio gets roughed up in the tunnel by Jones , then wins us a free kick after 30 sec picks himself up and curls one into the bottom corner been on the pitch for less than ab1 minute, it is also Gio's fault by now r club captain brought by Royle thought he would lob the ball over a equally shit centre half and cushion it over Margetson head .

The week after Royle pleaded with the chairman to get Gio back from playing for his country on a private plane, which they did but it was 2 late and we went down.

The perfect 10 Gio Kinkladze

Go away and find out how many goals this attacking midfielder scored from open play whilst at City

And can someone find out how many chances he created for others only for us to see them balloon them over or wide from a few yards out?

Unbelievably gifted, but he wasn't very effective. He did not create that many chances as he preferred to try and run and dribble with the ball rather than play it off quick to a team mate. His goal record was poor, and most of them were pens and free-kicks.

WOW, we have been ruined with all this money haven't we. Can't believe people saying he was overrated and shite. He was a cracking player. I remember Lineker (sure it was him) on match of the day saying that Kinkladze was worth the entrance money.

Oh, and if his goal against Southampton was overrated, then so was Maradona's against England. Not one good tackle against him, and went round a keeper making him look a right mug.............get a fucking grip.

20 goals in 106 app not that bad a record.
if a 22yr old kinkladze walked through the doors at city tomorrow he would have a chance in the current team, if a 22yr old silva walked through the doors in 95 do u think he would still be a great player wiv the pollocks of this world beside him????

Well said Malg...I've been a blue over 40 years and THAT goal v Southampton was the best 'live' goal I have ever seen (Tueart's ran it close). I was in The Platt Lane/Umbro Stand that day and no one could believe what that had just witnessed.

Kinky was a hero to my kids and one of the reasons they stuck with us through the bad times. Gio was a genius.

Yeah I knew someone would come back with that smart arse reply but if you read my post again you'll see I mentioned it was already too late by that stage. Team morale was rock bottom, confidence was gone, not helped of course by the utter shite players Clark had bought. If Georgi had have been anything like a team player we wouldn't have been in that position to begin with.

Royle could have played him in every game we'd still have gone down.
