Alvaro Negredo - How do you remember him?

[BillCarlisle]

I was at West Ham when he did his shoulder. Rumour of he needed to move to pay off people in Spain. May be rubbish but you never know.

Yeah I also heard that he had been feeling the heat and not only from Spain. Something more close, in fact, and it all impacted on his play after the shoulder injury. When he was playing well he truly was a beast. One of the best, on his day.

I agree. He was brilliant and it stopped. I think we were 9 nil up when he fell. Tragic.

I heard, from a very good source, that it was something to do with a horse with no name.
I was in Costa Teguise, Lanzarote, that night, watching it in a bar with my daughter. 2 West Ham fans, on seeing my City polo shirt, asked me the score, so I told them "3-0 on the night, 9-0 on aggregate, and they've been lucky to get the Nil!"
They didn't stop.

My feelings towards him were always slightly off because of my wife's emotional state whenever he was in the team. He made my inadequacies as a man/husband more obvious. Those inadequacies are once again becoming obvious as she's exactly the same with Ruben!!!

Loved him. As others have said it was such a shame he never truly recovered from that shoulder injury. On his day he was one of the most well rounded strikers I have seen at City.

Past City Player,but nothing (unfortunately) special.....

He was a very good player and I think the majority of Blues would go along with that sentiment.

 

[kun]

Loved him, the goal against Spurs always gets mentioned but the volley against West Ham from the long ball over the top from Yaya was nearly as good.

Scored a beaut against Bayern Munich too IIRC

His partnership with Agüero, however short lived, was frightening. They matched each other so well.

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

he was only here half a season. Not sure why people are eulogising him? Good partnership with Aguero and enjoyed watching him play but let's not go overboard.
