He was an incredible player, but the one particular example of cheating that I assume has coloured many people's judgement of him is far from the equivalent of claiming a dodgy throw-in.

That's fair comment. I was responding specifically to the words 'end of'. The argument is far more nuanced than that, as I believe the example I gave should illustrate.

He'll be on and off it until it kills him, I reckon. I reckon he fucking loves the stuff.

He hates sergio now so i'm glad he had to watch him score their goal

He is a cheating druggie but football is very forgiving it seems

I love the way you express yourself,take a bow.

Cheers.

Not 'end of', my friend. Most players cheat, to some extent . Appealing for throw-ins they know couldn't possibly be theirs being a case in point.
He was an incredible player.

He found so many ways to cheat. The hand of "God", Amphetamines, nose candy, his wife and those he borrowed money off. But yeah he had some skill.

Probably on the old Novichok!

The fat **** doesn't sweat. He marinades.

Some of the stories about him and the Naples mafia are mental. And probably true
