Vuoso, like the others we didn't have two pennies to rub together I only knew he was actually real and not a tax dodge when he played at Boundary Park in what was then called the Manchester Senior Cup.Georgie Samaras for me.

Nowhere near,at least he was at the level where he had a chance of getting a start. There's so many worse signingsGeorgie Samaras for me.

Agreed. £3.5m was a decent amount back then and for him to not even get any first team action shows how bad a signing it was.

gorgeous Georgie was our expectations as fans rather than a bad deal, we went mental that this exotic greek man who looked like freddie mercury was going to be the second coming and rescue us from the doldrums , at least he brought a little bit of hope (before he started )im sure there was talk of Dean Ashton coming at the time and we plumped for the greek god, there were videos of him scoring 50 goals in one game :) , wish we had pushed the boat out for Ashton :(Georgie Samaras for me.

Wilfred Bony , now he was wank, we bought him on the back of him being top notch at Swansea , i remember in his first match a ball went over the top Wilfred set off after it and my first thought was "fucking hell he is slow in real life"

Given how Pellegrini’s system was all about quick movement and not really the use of a target man, the Bony signing baffled me. Despite how excited I was about him, because he was mustard…if you played to his strengths!

Did he cop for Malaria or something like Kolo did?Given how Pellegrini’s system was all about quick movement and not really the use of a target man, the Bony signing baffled me. Despite how excited I was about him, because he was mustard…if you played to his strengths!
He was still a square peg in a round hole however you looked at it though even if back to his 'best'.

At the time we bought him IIRC, he had scored the most PL goals in a calendar year.Given how Pellegrini’s system was all about quick movement and not really the use of a target man, the Bony signing baffled me.

The only thing Eliaquim Mangala had in his pocket was the huge pay cheque he was gifted every week for being shite.
He wasn't, and never could be, a footballer. A good athlete in completely the wrong game.

A goalkeeping hologram would surely be Jimmy Rimmer…He was a hologram.
Was that rumour about his brother playing in a friendly or reserve game and pretending to be him true?Vuoso, like the others we didn't have two pennies to rub together I only knew he was actually real and not a tax dodge when he played at Boundary Park in what was then called the Manchester Senior Cup.
