King Kev unhappy at Napoli

[blue_danube]

MLS is the right move for him if he's still serious about playing.

More relaxing lifestyle for a big name footballer compared to Europe, and he'll probably have decent a year or two in him there with what he has left. It's a nice stop gap on the way to retirement.

I'd probably hang them up. He's got nothing to prove but as with a lot of elite sports folk, they still feel they have more to offer. That mentality is what made them what they are in the first place.

Get down asda in Hale Barnes , Goater goes in there. Had a chat at check out a few months ago .

Id wager he wouldn't be happy anywhere. It must be incredibly frustrating when your body is letting you down. Hope he has a swansong at the World Cup for Belgium. Its sad seeing a patched up broken Kevin limping around. He was sensational.

This was clear towards the end of his time at City. Must be really hard when you’ve been at the level Kev was.

Speaking of Kev, how’s his statue moving along?

Statues don't move.

Which Altrincham suburb would Harvey Barnes live if in he joins us/rags from the Jocks wi nae brains?

Was Yaya still with us when Kev signed (2016?)?

He was here till 2018 mate

Cheers. In body, if not in spirit. Those last 18 months were pretty insipid.

Kev can say and do what he wants, but I’ve watched him twice for Napoli this season and he looked fucked in both games.

Looked OK in the match I saw, but it was only the one match.

Being swapped to a Waitrose. The Asda store, not the Goat

Think i saw Nicky Butt in his back pocket. He's a regular is Nicky but i ain't seen him since that day .

I went to a bar in Hale for a pint with the wife a couple of years ago and Butt was in there with Giggs having a drink. They were both sound in fairness, Giggs left after a while because the lady he was with started arguing with him. Would hate to speculate why…

Get him to Inter Miami.

I'm sure he's said previously he likes the American lifestyle and has been spotted at NBA games in recent years too on holidays?

Would be mint to see him in the same team as Messi and wouldn't be too demanding on his body.

 

[skillman]

he gave fucking everything for us, everything.

for me, it was when he had to leave the field with a broken face,
that was it, he was totally spent, crying, completely done,
and i don't think he ever got back to it after that.

but what a joy it was to witness him up to that point.
how lucky we were.

Wasn't that the 2021 CL final? He won 3 more leagues after that in 2022, 2023 and 2024 plus a host of other trophies.

I think his body broke down in the 2023 CL final when his hamstring went and then again when it went first day of the season away at Burnley. He looked gutted both times.

Still a genius enough to drag us to the title in 23/24, mind.

What a man. East Stand should be named after him. Aptly opposite the Colin Bell Stand.

Think I'd buy a place on the Amalfi Coast and not get too mithered about the job

He could afford a little island of of his own. Manchester by the Med he could call it..

Asda in Hale Barns ffs ! Long gone are the days of Adrian's Tackle shop in the precinct and a decent pint of Hatters Light Mild in the Bulls Head.
