He was derided because in a blue shirt he was fucking useless. He didn't want or try to fit in and it showed. Personally couldn't give a fuck how he's doing now because even if he was still here you can be damn sure he wouldn't be playing like this for us.
you mean like when silva was quiet and pretty ordinary in his first season with us and fucking brilliant in his next?
you say your not bothered about how boateng is doing now, but your one of the first to post on a thread entitled " jerome boateng-what a quality player"
are you bothered or not? if your not bothered, skip the thread and move onto somthing you are bothered/interested in.
just accept, that like quite a few blues, you were wrong about the defensive capabilities of a past player. he was one of the most sought after defenders in europe before he joined city, and has gone on to GREAT things since he left us.
have a bit of respect for a player who has managed to turn his life around.
i don,t recall him having a very good game away at notts county in the cup, but he looked DECENT playing for germany,at the world cup finals,at left back,on his weaker side...which one of those two matches do you think will stick out in jeromes mind?
stop being bitter, and be happy for the lad. and don,t pretend your not bothered about him either.
