The 'Greek Tragedy' retires.

I remember fans pinning all hopes on him when we were shite. I remember him getting injured 2 days before our FA cup Quarter final with West Ham and fans were gutted and going mad at Pearce for playing him. Like he would have made any difference!
 
Yet a near God in Scotland...

Very much wanted for him to be a great player for us, was a big signing for us at the time and he did try, mostly. I remember talking to a Dutch lad at work when we signed him and he told me we got the wrong one, he only looked good because he had a teammate who set him up constantly, can't remember for the life of me who that was though.

Good luck to him in whatever he does next.
 
I liked him, don't think we ever got to see his full potential (an understatement I'm sure).

My sons first City hero, which he will now probably deny!
 
To be fair his hair was beautiful and made up for Siberski's lack.
 
Played out of position by a wank manager. When played up top, he scored some super goals, including our last 2 home goals of 2007, came on and won us the game.

Still plenty of fans blast him, making them bigger blues.
He was signed as a dim beacon of hope. I liked him playing for us and the reflective glory of him winning a Euros medal.

He was shite, to suggest otherwise is bonkers. His career after confirms that too. Doing well in Scotland? Fantastic. One of them was a penalty in them last two home goals. Shite player in a shite team with a shite manager.
 
An inspiration to any young lad in that even if you are completely average some desperate side may one day offer you professional terms!
 
I’m sure I read him state when he signed that he was using city as a stepping stone to greater things.
The club and him definitely went in different directions.
